Default The Occupation of Hunting

..."At present, however, I am interested in underscoring a feature of hunting that runs contrary to what is usually understood by diversion. This word, diversion, usually indicates only comfortable situations, to the extent that , used carelessly, it connotes ways of life completely free of hardship, free of risk, not requiring great physical effort nor a great deal of concentration. But the occupation of hunting, as carried on by a good hunter, involves precisely all of those things."
Jose Ortega y Gasset
