    “He appeared to be a very religious man, and said his prayers in a loud voice, in Indian, kneeling before the camp, morning and evening,—sometimes scrambling up again in haste when he had forgotten this, and saying them with great rapidity.

    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    “The inhabitants of Canada appeared to be suffering between two fires,—the soldiery and the priesthood.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    “The place became full of a watchful intentness now; for when other things sank brooding to sleep the heath appeared slowly to awake and listen. Every night its Titanic form seemed to await something; but it had waited thus, unmoved, during so many centuries, through the crises of so many things, that it could only be imagined to await one last crisis—the final overthrow.”
    —Thomas Hardy (1840–1928)
