Self-Reliance
-
Whoso would be a man must be a nonconformist. He who would
gather immortal palms must not be hindered by the name of goodness,
but must explore if it be goodness. Nothing is at last sacred but
the integrity of your own mind. -

the impression of your character - 3 more annotations...

British Museum - Hoa Hakananai'a
Hoa Hakananai'a means "stolen or hidden friend" in the indigenous language of Rapa Nui. Hoa Hakananai'a is rare in that it is carved from basalt. The hardness of the basalt has maintained a lot of the decorative detail that has been lost from many of the other statues on Rapa Nui.
