I swear the earth shall surely be complete to him or her who shall be complete! 
I swear the earth remains jagged and broken only to him or her who remains jagged and broken! 
I swear there is no greatness or power that does not emulate those of the earth! 
I swear there can be no theory of any account, unless it corroborate the theory of the earth! 
No politics, art, religion, behavior, or what not, is of account, unless it compare with the amplitude of the earth, unless it face the exactness, vitality, impartiality, rectitude of the earth.

- Walt Whitman, from Carol of Words (1871)
