    It seemed as if the breezes brought him,
    It seemed as if the sparrows taught him,
    As if by secret sign he knew
    Where in far fields the orchids grew.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    In front of these sinister facts, the first lesson of history is the good of evil. Good is a good doctor, but Bad is sometimes a better.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    I was a fire-breathing Catholic C.O.,
    and made my manic statement,
    telling off the state and president, and then
    sat waiting sentence in the bull pen
    beside a Negro boy with curlicues
    of marijuana in his hair.
    Robert Lowell (1917–1977)

    I, with other Americans, have perhaps unduly resented the stream of criticism of American life ... more particularly have I resented the sneers at Main Street. For I have known that in the cottages that lay behind the street rested the strength of our national character.
    Herbert Hoover (1874–1964)
