“Where is the “unexplored land” but in our own untried enterprises? To an adventurous spirit any place—London, New York, Worcester, or his own yard—is “unexplored land,” to seek which Frémont and Kane travel so far.

—Administration in the State of Texa, U.S. public relief program (1935-1943)
“I go to school to youth to learn the future.”
—Robert Frost (1874–1963)
