It was Edgar A. Guest who wrote that he wanted to "Live in a house by the side of the road and be a friend to man."
I'm not sure if the story is apocryphal or not, but a little girl is supposed to have said that, like Mr. Guest, she wanted to live in a house by the side of the road and be friendly to men.
