“To these men
The landscape is an armory of powers,
Which, one by one, they know how to draw and use.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

“It makes so little difference, at so much more
Than seventy, where one looks, one has been there before.
Wood-smoke rises through trees, is caught in an upper flow
Of air and whirled away. But it has been often so.”
—Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)

In calm or stormy weather;
To cheer one on the tedious way,
To fetch one if one goes astray,
To lift one if one totters down,
To strengthen whilst one stands.”
—Christina Georgina Rossetti (1830–1894)
