“I know I am deathless,
I know this orbit of mine cannot be swept by the carpenter’s compass,
I know I shall not pass like a child’s carlacue cut with a burnt stick at night.

I know I am august,
I do not trouble my spirit to vindicate itself or be understood,
I see that the elementary laws never apologize,
I reckon I behave no prouder than the level I plant my house by, after all.

I exist as I am—that is enough,
If no other in the world be aware, I sit content,
And if each and all be aware, I sit content.”
― Walt Whitman

“Books are no more threatened by Kindle than stairs by elevators.”
