"The grand show is eternal. It is always sunrise somewhere; the dew is never
dried all at once; a shower is forever falling; vapor is ever rising.
Eternal sunrise, eternal dawn and gloaming, on sea and continents and
islands, each in its turn, as the round earth rolls. "
— John Muir <http://www.goodreads.com/author/quotes/5297.John_Muir>

His was an ecstatic experience of the wild.  Something many of us can relate
to.
