"We are now fairly into the mountains, and they are into us. What bright, seething white fire ENTHUSIASM is bred in us - without our help or knowledge - a perfect influx into every pore and cell of us fusing, vaporizing, by its heat until the boundary walls o our heavy flesh tabernacle seem taken down and we flow out and diffuse into the very air. Now I am no longer a shepherd, but a free bit of everything."
The Contemplative John Muir, p. 193
