Edgar Rice Burroughs'
Tarzan of the Apes

"And when I am back in the jungle, it is with relief that I sink back into my natural timelessness. I become one with the beasts and the trees, and I can laze away weeks or months with no thoughts beyond now." - Lord Greystoke, from "Extracts from the Memoirs of Lord Greystoke" edited by Philip Jose Farmer

It seems a common scenario that most of the true Tarzan fans probably first read Tarzan of the Apes when they were somewhere around ten years old. And thereafter proceeded to live in the trees forever, at least on some lingering cerebral landscape. Maybe there were times along the way when they almost forgot, but not quite. Somewhere hidden, lurking, always was that special, inexplicable, primal yet noble emotion instilled by Mr. Burroughs. It is a feeling that we carry on and hold close, for it is the best of us. Our true essence that remains after the facade of civilization crumbles away.
