"The Wild doesn't care if I am here or not. It doesn't care if I have enough food or not. It doesn't care if I am lonely. It doesn't care if I am so miserable that I start going insane.
The Wild is just here. It's The Wild.
It's hard to go and try to live your dreams and find that... it's so difficult."

-Ed Wardle, from his documentary film, Alone In The Wild, for Channel 4 Television in the UK (2009).

The film also seems to be available on Youtube!

Quote: Forget not that the earth delights to feel your bare feet and the winds long to play with your hair.

Quote: March on. Do not tarry. To go forward is to move toward perfection. March on, and fear not the thorns, or the sharp stones on life's path.

Quote: Out of suffering have emerged the strongest souls; the most massive characters are seared with scars.

Hardly original. It’s just slightly modification from original quote from The Book Of Mormon JS-H53. 

[The Ravages of Time]

Quote: “There is an ecstasy which marks the summit of life, and beyond which life cannot rise. And such is the paradox of living, this ecstasy comes when one is most alive, and it comes as a complete forgetfulness of living”
