Me imperturbe, standing at ease in nature.
Happiness, not in another place but this place...not for another hour, but this hour.
O magnet-South! O glistening perfumed South! My South! O quick mettle, rich blood, impulse and love! Good and evil! O all dear to me!
I wear my hat as I please, indoors or out.
Comrades mine and I in the midst, and their memory ever to keep for the dead I loved so well.
A man is a great thing upon the earth and through eternity; but every jot of the greatness of man is unfolded out of woman.
