    “Listen world,
    if you’d just take the time to pick
    the white fingers, the penny heart,

    They are as good as salt.”
    —Anne Sexton (1928–1974)

    “At sundown, leaving the river road awhile for shortness, we went by way of Enfield, where we stopped for the night. This, like most of the localities bearing names on this road, was a place to name which, in the midst of the unnamed and unincorporated wilderness, was to make a distinction without a difference, it seemed to me.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    “The truth is the river flows into the canyon
    Of Ceasing-to-Question-What-Doesn’t-Concern-Us,
    As sooner or later we have to cease somewhere.”
