    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    I thought how sadly beauty of inscape was unknown and buried away from simple people and yet how near at hand it was if they had eyes to see it and it could be called out everywhere again.

    A stereotyped but unconscious despair is concealed even under what are called the games and amusements of mankind.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
