"There is a pleasure in the pathless woods,
There is a rapture on the lonely shore,

I love not Man the less, but Nature more,
From these our interviews, in which I steal
From all I may be, or have been before,
To mingle with the Universe, and feel
What I can ne'er express, yet cannot all conceal."

~Lord Byron
