“If men will believe it, sua si bona norint, there are no more quiet Tempes, nor more poetic and Arcadian lives, than may be lived in these New England dwellings.

—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

“Truth hath a quiet breast.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

A peace above all earthly dignities,
A still and quiet conscience.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
