"One of the saddest remarks anyone can make is that he is bored, just killing time, with nothing to get excited about, nothing to warrant enthusiasm. When I sense such reactions, I wonder what has happened to sights and sounds, to the senses of smell and touch, to the realization of an infinite world of beauty and mystery. Part of the answer is humanity has removed itself so completely from the natural scene, which used to give comfort and pleasure, our reactions have atrophied through lack of use."
