    “I remember once dreaming of pushing a canoe up the rivers of Maine, and that, when I had got so high that the channels were dry, I kept on through the ravines and gorges, nearly as well as before, by pushing a little harder, and now it seemed to me that my dream was partially realized.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    “Thy summer voice, Musketaquit,
    Repeats the music of the rain;
    But sweeter rivers pulsing flit
    Through thee, as thou through Concord Plain.”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    “Such was the very armor he had on
    When he the ambitious Norway combated.”
    —William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
