“A township where one primitive forest waves above while another primitive forest rots below,—such a town is fitted to raise not only corn and potatoes, but poets and philosophers for the coming ages.

—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

“Why, even when I was innocent her hatred of me hurt a good deal. Now that I’m guilty, her belief in me would hurt even more.”

“But com’st a decent maid,
In Attic robe array’d,
O chaste, unboastful nymph, to thee I call!”
