"I am not one who was born in the custody of wisdom. I am one who is fond of olden times and intense in quest of the sacred knowing of the ancients." Gustave Courbet

Happy Birthday, Cooper

Elliott, James Fenimore Cooper, 1860


All greatness of character is dependent on individuality. The person who has no other existence than that which he does in common with all around him, will never have any other than an existence of mediocrity.

James Fenimore Cooper, born on this day in 1789
