“In Wildness is the Preservation of the World”
by Eliot Porter
We find that we had virtually forgotten the note of each bird, and when
we hear it again it is remembered like a dream, reminding us of a previous
state of existence.
How happens it that the associations it awakens are always pleasing, never saddening;
reminiscenses of our sanest hours?
The voice of nature is always encouraging.
