Industrial society is a prison, but the word "wilderness" is itself music.

 

"If industrial man continues to multiply his numbers and expand his operations he will succeed in his apparent intention, to seal himself off from the natural and isolate himself within a synthetic prison of his own making.”

"Wilderness.  The word itself is music."
