"Let me have a draught of undiluted morning air. Morning air! If people will not drink of this at the fountain-head of the day, why, then, we must even bottle up some and sell it in the shops, for the benefit of those who have lost their subscription ticket to morning time in this world. But remember, it will not keep quite till noonday even in the coolest cellar, but drive out the stopples long before that and follow westward the steps of Aurora [the Sun]."
Henry David Thoreau
