Summary

This quote suggests that being exposed to the vastness and untamed beauty of nature, such as mountains, forests, and sea, can awaken a primal and raw aspect of human nature, making individuals more fierce and instinctual. However, it also highlights that despite this transformation, the fundamental essence of humanity remains intact. Nature's influence may tap into the wildness within, but it does not eradicate the inherent human qualities, suggesting that humans are inextricably linked to the natural world.
