“The line of separation was very distinct, and the Indian immediately remarked, I guess you and I go there,I guess theres room for my canoe there. This was his common expression instead of saying we. He never addressed us by our names, though curious to know how they were spelled and what they meant, while we called him Polis. He had already guessed very accurately at our ages, and said that he was forty-eight.”
—Henry David Thoreau (18171862)
