  • Philadelphia in an Age of Change, 1785-1800 By
    Specialized residential and business districts : Philadelphia in an age of change, 1785-1800 by Thomas Samuel Gentry A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in History Montana State University © Copyright by Thomas Samuel Gentry (1988) Abstract: Philadelphia in 1785 was a city on the brink of economic expansion. The carrying trade promoted the financial growth of the city. Even though Philadelphia became a trading center in the 1790s, the economic boom affected only a very small segment of society. Examining local records such as the city tax lists, city directories, newspaper accounts, and the Federal Direct Tax of 1798, one realizes that while the economy flourished, for many people the 1790s were an age of poverty. The carrying trade helped those in a position to benefit from trade with England, France, and the West Indies; however, due to the rapid growth in population, lower income Philadelphians were left out of this trading circle. While many merchants prospered their working class counterparts fell into poverty. Artisans and craftspeople found that their piece of the monetary pie was becoming smaller and smaller throughout the period. As the 1790s progressed the wage of artisans, laborers, and craftspeople dropped considerably. The drop in the wage is directly reflected in the city tax lists for the 1780s and 1790s. Workers found it harder to make ends meet. Changes in property values in the 1790s aggravated the problems of the workers, forcing them to move to more affordable accommodations in different parts of Philadelphia. Places like North Mulberry and South Ward became havens for workers in the 1790s, as businesses devoted to the carrying trade moved into the buildings along the Delaware River.

  • First Battle of the Marne After Invading Belgium and North-Eastern France
    First Battle of the Marne After invading Belgium and north-eastern France during the Battle of Frontiers, the German army had reached within 30 miles of Paris. Their progress had been rapid, giving the French little time to regroup. The First Battle of the Marne was fought between September 6th through the 12th in 1914, with the German advance being brought to a halt, and a stalemate and trench warfare being established as the norm. As the German armies neared Paris, the French capital prepared itself for a siege. The defending French and British forces were at the point of exhaustion, having retreated continuously for 10-12 days under repeated German attack until they had reached the south of the River Marne. Nevertheless, the German forces were close to achieving a breakthrough against the French forces, and were only saved on the 7th of September by the aid of 6,000 French reserve infantry troops brought in from Paris by a convoy of taxi cabs, 600 cabs in all. On September 9th, the German armies began a retreat ordered by the German Chief of Staff Helmuth von Moltke. Moltke feared an Allied breakthrough, plagued by poor communication from his lines at the Marne. The retreating armies were pursued by the French and British, although the pace of the Allied advance was slow - a mere 12 miles in one day. The German armies ceased their withdrawal after 40 miles at a point north of the River Aisne, where the First and Second Armies dug in, preparing trenches that were to last for several years.

Other beginnings happen because life is hard and time marches on. Regardless of the reason for the change, an inspirational or meaningful quote can help us walk in a new direction with confidence. When I read or hear something that seems to perfectly put into words something that I experience or wonder about or believe, I want to capture it. They spur new thoughts or new actions—or remind us to revisit old ones. As I searched for quotes to fit with each of our categories below, I wanted to have a wide representation of people.

But when we start a A New Beginning beginning because we want it, it can lead to some pretty amazing adventures. Sometimes we start something new because we know we need a change. Self-awareness can make this pretty obvious, but it takes work to really be in tune with ourselves and our circumstances.
