Darwin on Travel: "It appears to me that nothing can be more improving to a young naturalist than a journey in distant countries, the excitement in the novelty of objects, and the chance of success stimulates him to increased activity." Voyage of the Beagle 1839
Darwin on Rainforests: "Among the scenes which are impressed on my mind, none exceed the sublimity of the primeval forests, undefaced by the hands of man, Temples filled with the varied productions of the god of nature. No one can stand in these solitudes unmoved and not feel that there is more in man than the breath of his body." Voyage of the Beagle 1839
