In the beginning I was so young and such a stranger to myself
I hardly existed. I had to go out into the world and see it and hear it and
react to it, before I knew at all who I was, what I was, what I wanted to be.
Wordsworth studied himself and found the subject astonishing. Actually what he
studied was his relationship to the harmonies of the natural world. That’s what
created the excitement.
