Description

"There is another world, but it is in this one." --W.B. Yeats

From 'Leaves of Grass', by Walt Whitman

"I think I could turn, and live with animals, / they are so placid and self-contain'd, / I stand and look at them long and long. /They do not sweat and whine about their / condition, / They do not lie awake in the dark and weep / for their sins, / They do not make me sick discussing their / duty to God, / Not one is dissatisfied, not one is demented / with the mania of owning things, / Not one kneels to another, nor to his kind that / lived thousands of years ago, / Not one is respectable or unhappy over the / whole earth."

"Now, as I mellow in years / and home in a beautiful landscape, / Nature allures me again." --W.H. Auden
