Henry David Thoreau Quotes
When I Stand In A Library Where Is All The Recorded Wit Of The World, But None Of The Recording, A Mere Accumulated, And Not Trulycumulative Treasure; Where Immortal Works Stand Side By Side With Anthologies Which Did Not Survive Their Month, And Cobweb And Mildew Have Already Spread From These To The Binding Of Those; And Happily I Am Reminded Of What Poetry Is,
I Perceive That Shakespeare And Milton Did Not Foresee Into What Company They Were To Fall. Alas! That So Soon The Work Of A True Poet Should Be Swept Into Such A Dust-hole!
