I am the lover of uncontained and immortal beauty. In the wilderness, I find something more dear and connate than in streets or villages. In the tranquil landscape, and especially in the distant line of the horizon, man beholds somewhat as beautiful as his own nature.
Ralph Waldo EmersonThe crime which bankrupts men and nations is that of turning aside from one's main purpose to serve a job here and there.
