"During the proper seasons, the urge within me to be in the woods and field or along a stream is such a strong and pleasant desire that I have no inclination to withstand it. As a child and an adult, I would hunger for a chance to escape for a while from my normal duties, no matter how challenging or enjoyable they were, and to spend a few hours or days in relative solitude away from civilization. Such retreats have always been as much an escape into something delightful as away from things I wanted to avoid or forget for a while."
- Jimmy Carter, An Outdoor Journal: Adventures and Reflections, 1988.
