«The best way to know any future is to cause one. And that?s why, you see, when you start consulting the oracle at Delphi, you?ve taken a step downhill. You have assigned cause for the future elsewhere...So one predicts the future as much as one is cause. The future isn?t a pattern laid out to abuse and bully you.

«The face of nature and civilization in this our country is to a certain point a very sufficient literary field. But it will yield its secrets only to a really grasping imagination. To write well and worthily of American things one need even more than elsewhere to be a master.»
