Blue Highways Quotes

“Come life, Shaker life,
Come life eternal;
Shake, shake out of me
All that is carnal.”
― William Least Heat-Moon, Blue Highways-a Journey Into America

“I go in search of the real America beyond the scare-you-to-death news headlines. Embracing the pace of a wanderer -- not a tourist. I was a "detourist." I didn't follow an itinerary. Followed hunches and locals saying, "It's just 15 minutes that way-you can't miss it." Spoiler: I missed it. But what I found instead was better."  ”
― John W. Butler
