We have not dollars; merchants have; let them give them. Farmers will give corn; poets will sing; women will sew; laborers will lend a hand; the children will bring flowers.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
“The optimist proclaims that we live in the best of all possible worlds; and the pessimist fears this is true.”
