Ralph Waldo Emerson
“See yonder leafless tree against the sky,
How they diffuse themselves into the air,
And ever subdividing separate,
Limbs into branches, branches into twigs,
As if they loved the element, & hasted
To dissipate their being into it.”
Ralph Waldo Emerson, Collected Poems and Translations

Rick Riordan
“Patterns repeat themselves in history”
Rick Riordan, The Last Olympian
