“The history of every country begins in the heart of a man or a woman.”
—Willa Cather (1876–1947)

—Hermann Hesse (1877–1962)
“Let us not underrate the value of a fact; it will one day flower in a truth. It is astonishing how few facts of importance are added in a century to the natural history of any animal. The natural history of man himself is still being gradually written.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
