—Alexis de Tocqueville (1805–1859)

“Knavery seems to be so much a the striking feature of its inhabitants that it may not in the end be an evil that they will become aliens to this kingdom.”

“Just specimens is all New Hampshire has,
One each of everything as in a show-case
Which naturally she doesn’t care to sell.”
