In wildness is the preservation of the world. – Thoreau
“The wild is the sense of something that’s just got away from you. Something you can’t ever really hold onto to. That’s there, that’s terribly important to you and you can’t grasp it. That’s the wild. That’s what I’m calling the unknown.” – – W.S. Merwin
