For the
perfect idler, for the passionate observer it becomes an
immense source of enjoyment to establish his dwelling in the
throng, in the ebb and flow, the bustle, the fleeting and
the infinite. To be away from home and yet to feel at home
anywhere; to see the world, to be at the very center of the
world, and yet to be unseen of the world, such are some of
the minor pleasures of those independent, intense and
impartial spirits, who do not lend themselves easily to
linguistic definitions. The observer is a prince enjoying
his incognito wherever he goes.
-- Charles Baudelaire
1821-1867, French Poet
