THE world is too much with us; late and soon,
Getting and spending, we lay waste our powers:
Little we see in Nature that is ours;
We have given our hearts away, a sordid boon!
The Sea that bares her bosom to the moon;
The winds that will be howling at all hours,
And are up-gathered now like sleeping flowers;
For this, for everything, we are out of tune;
It moves us not.--Great God! I'd rather be
A Pagan suckled in a creed outworn;
So might I, standing on this pleasant lea,
Have glimpses that would make me less forlorn;
Have sight of Proteus rising from the sea;
Or hear old Triton blow his wreathed horn.

"I went to the woods because I wished to live deliberately,
to front only the essential facts of life,
and see if I could not learn what it had to teach,
and not, when I came to die, discover that I had not lived.
I did not wish to live what was not life, living is so dear;
nor did I wish to practise resignation, unless it was quite necessary.
I wanted to live deep and suck out all the marrow of life,
to live so sturdily and Spartan- like as to put to rout all that was not life,
to cut a broad swath and shave close, to drive life into a corner,
and reduce it to its lowest terms, and, if it proved to be mean,
why then to get the whole and genuine meanness of it,
and publish its meanness to the world; or if it were sublime,
to know it by experience, and be able to give a true account of it
in my next excursion."

Wayne, thanks for that one. Kind of banged me upside the head like a burled maple.

Daisy, thanks for yours as well. I think that line means caught by surprise.

Thanks, Penn! I sure could go for a cold brew.

Been one of those days at work!!!!! :evil:

Then I thought to myself, it could always be worse.
Imagine being tied up naked and forced to listen to Barry Manilow and Cher songs all day? Suddenly work wasn't really so bad after all. The End.
