Here I swear, and as I break my oath may. . . eternity blast me, here I swear that never will I forgive Christianity! It is the only point on which I allow myself to encourage revenge. . . Oh, how I wish I were the Antichrist, that it were mine to crush the Demon; to hurl him to his native Hell never to rise again - I expect to gratify some of this insatiable feeling in Poetry.
Languages happily restrict the mind to what is of its own native growth and fitted for it, as rivers and mountains bond countries; or the empire of learning, as well as states, would become unwieldy and overgrown.

Dreams are our only geography—our native land.
