“As a confirmed melancholic, I can testify that the
best and maybe only antidote for melancholia is action. However, like most
melancholics, I suffer also from sloth.” —Western essayist, novelist, and
environmental advocate Edward
Abbey (1927-1989), A Voice Crying in the Wilderness (Vox Clamantis in Deserto): Notes from a Secret Journal (1989)
