"If a young man is about to commence in the world ... we say to him publicly and privately, go to the West.  There your capacities are sure to be appreciated and your industry and energy rewarded." 

--  Horace Greeley, editor of the New York Tribune, so urged young men to go West in the 1850's

"We come too late for to ride with the great,
But we're born with a sense of our history.
Now the challenge remains to pick up the reins
And answer our personal mystery."

from Dennis Gaines', "New Tradition"
