Quote #4
I lived and breathed to hunt, to fish. (3.3)
Living in the basement wasn't much of a life. To Paulsen, hunting was life. Literally, at some points—his parents were too busy being drunk to buy food for him, so he lived on what he caught or shot.
Quote #5
The maples were red gold and filtered the sunlight so that you could almost taste the richness of the light, and before long I added a surplus army blanket, rolled up over the pack, and I would spend the nights out as well. (3.5)
In this beautiful description, Paulsen's love of nature couldn't be more clear.
