“A country whose buildings are of wood, can never increase in its improvements to any considerable degree.... Whereas when buildings are of durable materials, every new edifice is an actual and permanent acquisition to the state, adding to its value as well as to its ornament.”

“See an old unhappy bull,
Sick in soul and body both,
Slouching in the undergrowth
Of the forest beautiful,”
