Me thinks my body is but the lees of my better being. In fact take my body who will, take it I say, it is not me. Herman Melville

Doubtless, we are as slow to conceive of Paradise as of Heaven, of a perfect natural as of a perfect spiritual world. We see how past ages have loitered and erred.

Undoubtedly, we are never so visionary as to be prepared for what the next hour may bring forth. Henry David Thoreau
