“Slavery is no scholar, no improver; it does not love the whistle of the railroad; it does not love the newspaper, the mail-bag, a college, a book or a preacher who has the absurd whim of saying what he thinks; it does not increase the white population; it does not improve the soil; everything goes to decay.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
“The motor idles.
Over the immense upland
the pulse of their blossoming
thunders through us.”

—Philip Dormer Stanhope, 4th Earl Chesterfield (1694–1773)
