• The wild swan hurries hight and noises loud
  With white neck peering to the evening clowd.
  The weary rooks to distant woods are gone.
  With lengths of tail the magpie winnows on
  To neighbouring tree, and leaves the distant crow
  While small birds nestle in the edge below.

  John Clare

• The white man is very clever. He came quietly and peaceably with his religion. We were amused at his foolishness and allowed him to stay. Now he has won our brothers, and our clan can no longer act like one. He has put a knife on the things that held us together and we have fallen apart.

• The morns are meeker than they were,
  The nuts are getting brown;
  The berry's cheek is plumper,
  The rose is out of town.
  The maple wears a gayer scarf,
  The field a scarlet gown.
  Lest I should be old-fashioned,
  I'll put a trinket on.

  And the wind in tree-top sighing,
  Chant his requiem.
  Thick and fast the leaves are falling,
  High in air wild birds are calling,
  Nature's solemn hymn.

• Enjoyment, on the other hand, is not always pleasant, and it can be very stressful at times. A mountain climber, for example, may be close to freezing, utterly exhausted, and in danger of falling into a bottomless crevasse, yet he wouldn't want to be anywhere else. Sipping a piña colada under a palm tree at the edge of the turquoise ocean is idyllic, but it just doesn't compare to the exhilaration he feels on the windswept ridge.
