    “What avail all your scholarly accomplishments and learning, compared with wisdom and manhood?

Where is our professor of belles-lettres, or of logic and rhetoric, who can write so well?”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    “We postpone our literary work until we have more ripeness and skill to write, and we one day discover that our literary talent was a youthful effervescence which we have now lost.”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
