Through this broad street, restless ever, Ebbs and flows a hum

Ebbs and flows a human tide,
Wave on wave a living river;
Wealth and fashion side by side;
Toiler, idler, slave and master, in the same quick current glide. – John Greenleaf Whittier

My blood flows in thy stream,
And thou meanderest forever
At the bottom of my dream. – Henry David Thoreau
