No face which we can give to a matter will stead us so well at last as the truth. This alone wears well.
Henry David ThoreauWe must walk consciously only part way toward our goal, and then leap in the dark to our success.
Henry David ThoreauContinued traveling is far from productive. It begins with wearing away the soles of the shoes, and making the feet sore, and erelong it will wear a man clean up, after making his heart sore into the bargain. I have observed that the afterlife of those who have traveled much is very pathetic.
