"Thoreau - "The patron saint of swamps" because he enjoyed being in them and writing about them said, my temple is the swamp... when I would recreate myself, I seek the darkest wood, the thickest and the most impenetrable, and to the citizen, most dismal swamp. I enter a swamp as a most sacred place, a sanctum, sanctorum.... I seem to have reached a new world, so wild a place... far away from human society. What's the need for visiting far-off mountains and bogs, if a half-hours walk will carry me into such wildness and novelty. " 

-Henry David Thoreau   Walden and other writings
