We Must Become Bigger

We must become bigger than we have been:

more courageous, greater in spirit, larger in outlook.

We must become members of a new race, overcoming petty prejudice,

owing our ultimate allegiance not to nations,

but to our fellow men within the human community.

Haile Selassie

Pleasure in the Pathless Woods

There is pleasure in the pathless woods,

there is rapture in the lonely shore,

there is society where none intrudes,

by the deep sea, and music in its roar;

I love not Man the less, but Nature more. 

Lord Byron
