“I don't want to know what time it is. I don't want to know what day it is or where I am. None of that matters.”

“...there is no greater joy than to have an endlessly changing horizon, for each day to have a new and different sun.”
Christopher McCandless

John Muir
“When we tug at a single thing in nature, we find it attached to the rest of the world.”
John Muir

Christopher McCandless
“You think that I am stubborn, but you are even more stubborn than me. You had a wonderful chance on your drive back to see one of the greatest sights on earth, the Grand Canyon, something every American should see at least once in his life. But for some reason incomprehensible to me you wanted nothing but to bolt for home as quickly as possible, right back to the same situation which you see day after day after day. I fear you will follow this same inclination in the future and thus fail to discover all the wonderful things that God has placed around us to discover. Don't settle down and sit in one place. Move around, be nomadic, make each day a new horizon.”

“You are wrong if you think Joy emanates only or principally from human relationships. God has placed it all around us. It is everything and anything we might experience. We just have to have the courage to turn against out habitual lifestyle and engage in unconventional living.”
Christopher McCandless
