Quotes by Patrick Taylor (?)

“I remember being amused at how easily I could adjust to such a dramatic change in physical environment and lifestyle, yet struggle sorely with relatively simple problems back home.”
― Patrick Taylor, Lost on Purpose: Adventures of a 21st Century Mountain Man

0 likes

“No matter what I read or how much I contemplate, God is beyond my comprehension,” I said. “I catch little glimpses; I recognize the truth when I see it, when I feel it in something I read. It’s like remembering something I already know… and there’s a lot of it in that book.”
― Patrick Taylor, Lost & Found: Navigating New Lives & Love

“realized a new definition of the word ‘free’ and a feeling like liberation washed over me. Without realizing it, I had completed one of the hardest parts of the trek before I even left town. I sold all my material possessions to buy the freedom I needed to follow adventure wherever it might take me.”
― Patrick Taylor, Lost on Purpose: Adventures of a 21st Century Mountain Man
