Sensation
From The Art and Popular Culture Encyclopedia
"Nous donnons trop et trop peu d'empire aux sensations"--"De la Mélodie", Rousseau “The great object of life is Sensation – to feel that we exist – even though in pain – it is this “craving void” which drives us to Gaming – to Battle – to Travel – to intemperate but keenly felt pursuits of every imaginable description whose principle attraction is the agitation inseparable from their accomplishment.” --Lord Byron |
