    “The broken ridge of the hills
    was the line of a lover’s shoulder,

    the sudden leap and swift thunder
    of mountain boulders, his laugh.”
    —Hilda Doolittle (1886–1961)

    “The intellect is vagabond, and our system of education fosters restlessness. Our minds travel when our bodies are forced to stay at home. We imitate; and what is imitation but the travelling of the mind?”
