Is it the lumberman, then, who is the friend and lover of the pine, stands nearest to it, and understands its nature best? Is it the tanner who has barked it, or he who has boxed it for turpentine, whom posterity will fable to have been changed into a pine at last? No! no! it is the poet: he it is who makes the truest use of the pine-who does not fondle it with an axe, nor tickle it with a saw, nor stroke it with a plane.... Henry David Thoreau		Saturday Apr 20, 2024

Other Henry S. Haskins Quotes
Deceiving someone for his own good is a responsibility that should be shouldered only by the gods. Good behavior is the last refuge of mediocrity. Don't refuse to go on an occasional wild goose chase. That is what wild geese are made for.
