    Hain’t we got all the fools in town on our side? and ain’t that a big enough majority in any town?
    Mark Twain [Samuel Langhorne Clemens] (1835–1910)

    A dilettantism in nature is barren and unworthy. A fop of fields is no better than his brother on Broadway.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    The growing of food and the growing of children are both vital to the family’s survival.... Who would dare make the judgment that holding your youngest baby on your lap is less important than weeding a few more yards in the maize field? Yet this is the judgment our society makes constantly. Production of autos, canned soup, advertising copy is important. Housework—cleaning, feeding, and caring—is unimportant.
    Debbie Taylor (20th century)

    Yet, hermit and stoic as he was, he was really fond of sympathy, and threw himself heartily and childlike into the company of young people whom he loved, and whom he delighted to entertain, as he only could, with the varied and endless anecdotes of his experiences by field and river: and he was always ready to lead a huckleberry-party or a search for chestnuts and grapes.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
