In Search of Another Life

"Remember! We all have that uncomfortableness in us, urging us to walk away; away in search of another life; away in search of things mightier than us, only to make us realize that these mightier things dwell in ourselves, not in society. They lie in deepening of the valleys, shallows of the brooks, narrow stretches of the trees, voids of the wilderness. They lie deep inside you; on the plains of the knowledge, in the vastness of the love and fountains of the youth."
