I have been thinking more and more that I shall always be a lone wanderer of the wilderness. God, how the trail lures me. You cannot comprehend its resistless fascination for me. After all, the lone trail is bestI'll never stop wandering. And when the time comes to die, I'll find the wildest, loneliest, most desolate spot there is.

Always, I want to live more intensely and richly.

I have been in many beautiful places, and did not wish to taste, but to drink deep.

I don't think I could ever settle down. I have known too much of the depths of life already, and I would prefer anything to an anticlimax.

I thought that there were two rules in life - never count the cost, and never do anything unless you can do it wholeheartedly. Now is the time to live.

I'm drunk on the fiery elixer of beauty.

While I am alive, I intend to live.
