Your soul is a dark forest. But the trees are of a particular species, they are genealogical trees. Marcel Proust
I am in Boston right now, in fact, to do work at the New England Historical Genealogical Library, where I'm trying to finish up tracing my lineage back to the seventeenth century. Rick Moody
Indeed, if a chief question does remain: how is the power to think possible? - The power to think right and left, before and without, with and above experience? then it does not take a deduction to prove the genealogical priority of language. Johann Georg Hamann
