But‚ courage! for around that boisterous brook The mountains have all opened out themselves‚ And made a hidden valley of their own. No habitation can be seen; but they Who journey thither find themselves alone With a few sheep‚ with

    Romantic poet‚ William Wordsworth‚ and Folk singer-songwriter‚ Joni Mitchell‚ both comment about their respective "worlds" and the way these worlds have been perceived or treated.
