The crews of the gig and yawl,
The bearded man and the lad in his teens,
Carpenters, coal-passers—all.”

—Bill Bryson (b. 1951)
“Though seen but once, it helps to wash out State Street and the engine’s soot.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“Towns are full of people, houses full of tenants, hotels full of guests, trains full of travelers, cafés full of customers, parks full of promenaders, consulting-rooms of famous doctors full of patients, theatres full of spectators, and beaches full of bathers. What previously was, in general, no problem, now begins to be an everyday one, namely, to find room.”
