Hold fast to dreams
For if dreams die
Life is a broken-winged bird
That cannot fly.
Hold fast to dreams
For when dreams go
Life is a barren field
Frozen with snow.

This photo is one of over 260 portraits of notable figures collected by radical publisher Benjamin R. Tucker in the late 19th century. Check them out here.
