Last night I went to the cinema and saw "Earth", the big screen film version of the Planet Earth series.
This film is breathtaking.
Go see it.
Earth film - Love Earth
Richard Francis Burton, 1863:
"Starting in a hollowed log of wood — some thousand miles up a river, with an infinitesimal prospect of returning! I ask myself "Why?" and the only echo is "damned fool! ... the devil drives!"
