    “Dreamer of dreams, born out of my due time,

    Beats with light wing against the ivory gate,”
    —William Morris (1834–1896)

    “This spirit it was which so early carried the French to the Great Lakes and the Mississippi on the north, and the Spaniard to the same river on the south. It was long before our frontiers reached their settlements in the West, and a voyageur or coureur de bois is still our conductor there.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
