Quote by Mark Twain
You know that kind of quiver that trembles around through you when you are seeing something so strange and enchanting and wonderful that it is just a fearful joy to be alive and look at it; and you know how you gaze, and your lips turn dry and your breath comes short, but you wouldn't be anywhere but there, not for the world.

The author emphasizes the mingling of fear and joy that overwhelms our senses, causing our body to tremble, our lips to dry, and our breath to shorten. Despite this overwhelming sensation, the quote conveys a strong desire to be completely immersed in that moment, cherishing the experience and finding solace in the fact that there is nowhere else we would rather be.
