“All I wanted to do now was get back to Africa. We had not left it yet, but when I would wake in the night, I would lie, listening, homesick for it already.”

--Ernest Hemingway, The Green Hills of Africa

“I had seen a herd of elephant traveling through dense native forest…pacing along as if they had an appointment at the end of the world.”

--Isak Dinesen, Out of Africa
