Brian Duncan on the Missouri River
"What sets a canoeing expedition apart is that it purifies
you more rapidly and inescapably than any other. Travel a thousand miles by train, and you are
a brute. Peddle 500 miles on a bicycle,
and you remain basically bourgeois.
Paddle a hundred in a canoe, and you are already a child of nature."
Canadian Prime Minister Pierre Trudeau
