Cazxxx “I find it wholesome to be alone the greater part of the time. To be in company, even with the best, is soon wearisome and dissipating. I love to be alone. I never found the companion that was so companionable as solitude.” Love this quote from the book. Sums me up perfectly! 1y
AllDebooks @Cazxxx absolutely, me too. I kept pausing to think I'm not the only hibernating hermit! 😅 1y

Graywacke I‘m enjoying it. An oddity, I think. I‘m about 40% through. Next chapter is The Bean Field. 1y
Cazxxx @AllDebooks No you‘re not, I‘m a total recluse 😂 1y
TheBookHippie @Cazxxx me too!!! That is just paradise. 1y
AllDebooks @Graywacke so glad you're enjoying it. Tbh I did find Economy a bit of a slog to get through. I'm loving the nature parts 1y

AllDebooks My favourite passage “We need the tonic of wildness...At the same time that we are earnest to explore and learn all things, we require that all things be mysterious and unexplorable, that land and sea be indefinitely wild, unsurveyed and unfathomed by us because unfathomable. We can never have enough of nature.” 1y
Graywacke Well, I finished. 😁 14mo
AllDebooks @Graywacke that's commitment! 14mo
