    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    Let us waive that agitated national topic, as to whether such multitudes of foreign poor should be landed on our American shores; let us waive it, with the one only thought, that if they can get here, they have God’s right to come.

    Let us guard against saying that death is opposed to life. The living is merely a species of the dead, and a very rare species.
