“Through winter-time we call on spring,
And through the spring on summer call,
And when abounding hedges ring
Declare that winters best of all;
And after that theres nothing good
Because the spring-time has not come....”

“A great proportion of architectural ornaments are literally hollow, and a September gale would strip them off, like borrowed plumes, without injury to the substantials.... What if an equal ado were made about the ornaments of style in literature, and the architects of our bibles spent as much time about their cornices as the architects of our churches do? So are made the belles-lettres and the beaux-arts and their professors.”
—Henry David Thoreau (18171862)
