They Will At Once Send Him Packing



From the journals of
Henry David Thoreau:

March 12, 1852/

The gods can never afford to leave a man in the world who is privy to any of their secrets. They cannot have a spy here. They will at once send him packing. How can you walk on ground when you see through it?
