Talk about slavery! It is not the peculiar institution of the South. It exists wherever men are bought and sold, wherever a man allows himself to be made a mere thing or a tool, and surrenders his inalienable rights of reason and conscience. Indeed, this slavery is more complete than that which enslaves the body alone... I never yet met with, or heard of, a judge who was not a slave of this kind, and so the finest and most unfailing weapon of injustice. He fetches a slightly higher price than the black men only because he is a more valuable slave.

Henry David Thoreau

No one realizes how beautiful it is to travel until he comes home and rests his head on his old, familiar pillow.

My opinion, my conviction, gains immensely in strength and sureness the minute a second mind as adopted it.

I don't at all like knowing what people say of me behind my back. It makes me far too conceited.

Oscar Wilde
