OP Can anyone tell me the authors of these two quotations? The first, possibly by Thoreau, is, "I have a certain sympathy with war: It so apes the gait and bearing of the soul." The second, by an Eastern European, is "Technology is the knack for so rearranging nature that we can no longer experience it."
Any help will be much appreciated!
