“Shakespeare carries us to such a lofty strain of intelligent activity, as to suggest a wealth which beggars his own; and we then feel that the splendid works which he has created, and which in other hours we extol as a sort of self-existent poetry, take no stronger hold of real nature than the shadow of a passing traveller on the rock.

—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
“To lib and die in Dixie!
Away, away, away down South in Dixie!”
