Quotes by John Haines (?)

“I faced in myself a passionate and tenacious longing--to put away thought forever, and all the trouble it brings, all but the nearest desire, direct and searching. To take the trail and not look back..Let the rest of mankind find me if it could.”

“The physical domain of the country had its counterpart in me. The trails I made led outward into the hills and swamps, but they led inward also. And from the study of things underfoot, and from reading and thinking, came a kind of exploration, myself and the land. In time the two became one in my mind. With the gathering force of an essential thing realizing itself out of early ground, I faced in myself a passionate and tenacious longing—to put away all thought forever, and all the trouble it brings, all but the nearest desire, direct and searching. To take the trail and not look back. Whether on foot, on snowshoes or by sled, into the summer hills and their late freezing shadows—a high blaze, a runner track in the snow would show where I had gone. Let the rest of mankind find me if it could.”

“Notes on the Capitalist Persuasion I “Everything is connected to everything . . .” So runs the executive saw, cutting both ways on the theme of all improvement: Your string is my string when I pull it my way. In my detachment is your dependency. In your small and backward nation some minor wealth still beckons— was it lumber, gas, or only sugar? Thus by imperial logic, with carefully aimed negotiation, my increase is your poverty. When the mortgage payments falter, then in fair market exchange your account is my account, your savings become my bonus, your home my house to sell. In my approval is your dispossession.”
― John Haines, For The Century's End: Poems 1990-1999
