“And my youth comes back to me.
And a verse of a Lapland song
Is haunting my memory still:
A boys will is the winds will,
And the thoughts of youth are long, long thoughts.”
—Henry Wadsworth Longfellow (18091882)
“No doubt, the short distance to which you can see in the woods, and the general twilight, would at length react on the inhabitants, and make them savages. The lakes also reveal the mountains, and give ample scope and range to our thought.”
—Henry David Thoreau (18171862)
