If with too credent ear you list his songs,
Or lose your heart, or your chaste treasure open
To his unmastered importunity.”

—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“The university is no longer a quiet place to teach and do scholarly work at a measured pace and contemplate the universe. It is big, complex, demanding, competitive, bureaucratic, and chronically short of money.”
