“And into the forest I go, to lose my mind and find my soul.”

John Muir (1838–1914) Scottish-born American naturalist and author

Once again, this is far from Muir's style of writing. The quote does not come up in any search of John Muir's Journals or his published texts on the John Muir Exhibit website. It is most commonly put on t-shirts - never in any scholarly source.
