CHAPTER XIV

THE RELATION BETWEEN THE PEOPLE AND THE LAND


"NATURE WAS MUCH BIGGER AND STRONGER THAN MAN. SHE WOULD SUFFER NO
SUDDEN HIGHWAYS TO BE THROWN ACROSS HER SPACES; SHE ABATED NOT AN
INCH OF HER MOUNTAINS, COMPROMISED NOT A FOOT OF HER FORESTS. ...
FOR THE CREATION OF THE NATION THE CONQUEST OF HER PROPER
TERRITORY FROM NATURE WAS FIRST NECESSARY ... A BOLD RACE HAS
DERIVED INSPIRATION FROM THE SIZE, THE DIFFICULTY, THE DANGER OF
THE TASK."
