".....A voice in the darkness, a knock at the door,
And a word that shall echo forevermore!
For, borne on the night-wind of the Past,
Through all our history, to the last,
In the hour of darkness and peril and need,
The people will waken and listen to hear
The hurrying hoof-beat of that steed,
And the midnight-message of Paul Revere."
From the poem, The Midnight Ride of Paul Revere
by Henry Wadsworth Longfellow, 1860
"As a commercial illustrator, he was peerless, and many people’s objections to his work have to do with the pieties they imagine he wanted to force-feed everyone. His sin was finding the beauty in mainstream culture, and casting a calm cool approving gaze over the ordinary things ordinary people did". -James Lileks
