    “We saw many straggling white pines, commonly unsound trees, which had therefore been skipped by the choppers; these were the largest trees we saw; and we occasionally passed a small wood in which this was the prevailing tree; but I did not notice nearly so many of these trees as I can see in a single walk in Concord.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    “Westerners inherit
    A design for living
    Deeper into matter—

    Of a great misgiving.”
