Quote:
“By the time Muir went home to spend the summer with his family, he had learned some important things about himself. He knew his own worth and insisted that his father pay him seventy-five cents a day. Muir also realized that his hard work now served his own purpose. All the wages he earned plowing, chopping, hoeing, and harvesting would allow him to return to his studies in the fall” (Warrick 36).
