    “My course is a firm assertion and maintenance of the rights of the colored people of the South according to the Thirteenth, Fourteenth, and Fifteenth Amendments, coupled with a readiness to recognize all Southern people, without regard to past political conduct, who will now go with me heartily and in good faith in support of these principles.”
    —Rutherford Birchard Hayes (1822–1893)

    “Let the martial songs be written, let the dirges disappear. Let a
    race of men now rise and take control!”
    —Margaret Abigail Walker (b. 1915)

    “Nature, hating art and pains,
    Baulks and baffles plotting brains;
    Casualty and Surprise
    Are the apples of her eyes;
    But she dearly loves the poor,
    And, by marvel of her own,
    Strikes the loud pretender down.”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
