“Hope, deceitful though it be, is at least of this good use to us—that while we are traveling through this life, it conducts us by an easier and more pleasant way to our journey’s end.”
—François, Duc De La Rochefoucauld (1613–1680)
“Coal is a portable climate. It carries the heat of the tropics to Labrador and the polar circle; and it is the means of transporting itself whithersoever it is wanted. Watt and Stephenson whispered in the ear of mankind their secret, that a half-ounce of coal will draw two tons a mile, and coal carries coal, by rail and by boat, to make Canada as warm as Calcutta, and with its comfort brings its industrial power.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
