"The wilderness that has come to us out of the eternity of the past, we have the boldness to project into the eternity of the future."

He is wisest, who only gives, True to himself, the best he can: Who drifting on the winds of praise, The inward monitor obeys. And with the boldness that confuses fear Takes in the crowded sail, and lets his conscience steer.

— John Greenleaf Whittier
