"Dad said I would always be "high minded and low waged" from reading too much Ralph Waldo Emerson. Maybe he was right." - Jim Harrison

If you live on the railroad tracks the train's going to hit you, Grandpa used to say. — Brown Dog

Wanderer, your footsteps are the road, and nothing more; wanderer, there is no road, the road is made by walking. By walking one makes the road, and upon glancing behind one sees the path that never will be trod again. Wanderer, there is no road — Only wakes upon the sea.

I lean against the rail and think there much be such a thing as beautiful anxiety.
