That is why the romantics had the right idea about natures. You can view a stunnnig painting by Frederick in my signiture, or if I've changed it: http://www.runegild.org/wanderer.jpg
Can you honostly tell me that when you gaze at this scene you do not feel something of the infinite grazing your conscience, almost tugging it to something more?

I believe though that the romantic idea of leaving everything else up to nature is silly. But I do like simplicity. However our society cannot change overnight. To understand is to evolve, their ideas of simplity are so very elegant and beautiful but lack the need to evolve. So I say this:

"The Romantics where half right: nature is the greatest teacher of simplicity. However, complexity is what with we apreciate and gain simplicity... As one understands complexity to simplicity, there is purity."

When I get my paper back from my English Prof, I will post the saying I finished my Romantic Period Essay with.
