Walt Whitman, recovering from a paralytic stroke, as he contemplated what makes life worth living
After you have exhausted what there is in business, politics, conviviality, love, and so on — have found that none of these finally satisfy, or permanently wear — what remains? Nature remains… the trees, fields, the changes of seasons — the sun by day and the stars of heaven by night.
from Brain Pickings
