“With a laugh,
An oath of towns that set the wild at naught,
They bring the telephone and telegraph.”

“The Card Catalogue: “See also” leads into the wilderness.”
—Mason Cooley (b. 1927)

“A sturdy lad from New Hampshire or Vermont who in turn tries all the professions, who teams it, farms it, peddles, keeps a school, preaches, edits a newspaper, goes to Congress, buys a township, and so forth, in successive years, and always like a cat falls on his feet, is worth a hundred of these city dolls. He walks abreast with his days and feels no shame in not “studying a profession,” for he does not postpone his life, but lives already.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
