"BEHAVIOR - fresh, native, copious, each one for himself or herself,Nature and the Soul expressed - America and freedom expressed - In it the finest art,
In it pride, cleanliness, sympathy, to have their chance,
In it physique, intellect, faith - in it just as much as to manage an army or a city, or to write a book-perhaps more,
The youth, the laboring person, the poor person, rivalling all the rest - perhaps outdoing the rest,
The effects of the universe no greater than its;
For there is nothing in the whole universe that can be more effective
than a man's or woman's daily behavior can be,
In any position, in any one of These States."
-Walt Whitman
