The Wanderlust has got me... by the belly-aching fire

The happy man is he who knows his limitations, yet bows to no false gods.

Avoid extremes: be moderate In saving and in spending; An equable and easy gait Will win an easy ending.

Carry on! Carry on! Fight the good fight and true; Believe in you mission, greet life with a cheer.

It isn't the mountain ahead that wears you out; it's the grain of sand in your shoe.

I remember little of the Yukon or what I wrote there.

The lonely sunsets flare forlorn Down valleys dreadly desolate; The lonely mountains soar in scorn As still as death, as stern as fate.
