“I better stop thinking in this manner, or before I know where I am I'll be bursting into tears, and it's a nice thing getting homesick before you even leave a place at all, so it is.”

“They have lived in the lonely places because they are independent, not because they are like their own sheep. What they have is not a lot but it belongs to them and they have to thank no other man for it.”

“That’s the trouble. I would be digging a ditch. They would say, That’s no place for a man like you. Come up to the office. So I would be an overseer, and they would say That’s no place for a man like you: Come into the building. Later they would say This is no job for a man like you, come higher up; and I would quit, and go and start digging a ditch somewhere else. You see?”
