I love Nature partly because she is not man.



"I love nature partly because she is not man, but a retreat from him.  None of his institutions control or pervade her . . . In her midst I can be glad with an entire gladness.  If this world was all man, I could not stretch myself - I should lose all hope. He is constraint; she is freedom to me.  He makes me wish for another world; she makes me content with this."

Henry David Thoreau
