“those who travel the world hoping to get “blinded by the light” are often blind to the light that’s all around them.”
Rolf Potts, Vagabonding: An Uncommon Guide to the Art of Long-Term World Travel

Joseph Campbell
“Participate joyfully in the sorrows of the world. We cannot cure the world of sorrows, but we can choose to live in joy. The warrior's approach is to say “yes” to life: “yea” to it all.”
Joseph Campbell, The Hero With a Thousand Faces

Herman Melville
“I have perceived that in all cases man must eventually lower, or at least shift, his conceit of attainable felicity; not placing it anywhere in the intellect or the fancy; but in the wife, the heart, the bed, the table, the saddle, the fire-side, the country.”
Herman Melville, Moby Dick

Carol S. Pearson
“The hero’s journey requires us to find our uniqueness. We simply cannot do that without enough solitude to find out who we are. Most of us need some time alone every day just to stay clear.”
Carol S. Pearson, Hero Within - Rev. & Expanded Ed.: Six Archetypes We Live By
