    “A tree that can fill the span of a man’s arms
    Grows from a downy tip;
    A terrace nine stories high
    Rises from hodfuls of earth;
    A journey of a thousand miles
    Starts from beneath one’s feet.”
    —Lao-Tzu (6th century B.C.)

    “Our fathers wrung their bread from stocks and stones
    And fenced their gardens with the Redman’s bones;”
