From the Everglades the remnants of this race emerged, soon after the trail was built, to set up their palm-thatched villages along the road and to hoist tribal flags as a lure to passing motorists.”
    —For the State of Florida, U.S. public relief program (1935-1943)

    “Love or hatred must constantly increase between two persons who are always together; every moment fresh reasons are found for loving or hating better.”
    —Honoré De Balzac (1799–1850)
