    Every day our garments become more assimilated to ourselves, receiving the impress of the wearer’s character, until we hesitate to lay them aside without such delay and medical appliances and some such solemnity even as our bodies.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    The community has no bribe that will tempt a wise man.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    There is an ancient saying, which is a true one—”To fight against two opponents is a difficult thing.”
    Plato (c. 427–347 B.C.)

    I laugh when I think that all of Rome made it a point not to pronounce Drusilla’s name. Because Rome was mistaken for all those years. Love is not enough for me, and I understood that then.... To love someone is to accept to grow old with her. An old Drusilla is far worse than a dead one.
