YUKON

This is the law of the Yukon, that only the Strong shall survive;
  That surely the Weak shall perish, and only the Fit survive.
    Dissolute, damned and despairful, crippled and palsied and slain,
      This is the Will of the Yukon,--Lo, how she makes it plain!
      - Robert William Service, Law of the Yukon

There's a land where the mountains are nameless
  And the rivers all run God knows where;
    There are lives that are erring and aimless,
      And deaths that just hang by a hair;
        There are hardships that nobody reckons;
          There are valleys unpeopled and still;
            There's a land--oh, it beckons and beckons,
              And I want to go back--and I will.
      - Robert William Service, Spell of the Yukon
