—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“I never yet feared those men who set a place apart in the middle of their cities where they gather to cheat one another and swear oaths which they break.”

Unless for penitents who took their seat
Upon its doorsteps as at mercy’s feet
To make up for a lack of meditation.”
