Listen, in every heart there burns a flame

For the love of glory or the dread of shame

But oh how happy we would be if we understood

There's no safety but in doing good

- Ballad Of John Henry

''Throughout our lives, we review our growing catalogs of truth, and sort through our expanding inventories of things unknown.''

''you will always find those who think they know what is your duty better than you know it. It is easy in the world to live after the world’s opinion; it is easy in solitude to live after our own; but the great man is he who in the midst of the crowd keeps with perfect sweetness the independence of solitude.'' - Ralph Waldo Emerson

"Turkey in the Straw" is still popular today among street fiddlers and ice cream trucks. - Turkey in the Straw
