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

Additional quotes by Christopher McCandless

So many people live within unhappy circumstances and yet will not take the initiative to change their situation because they are conditioned to a life of security, conformity, and conservatism, all of which may appear to give one peace of mind, but in reality nothing is more damaging to the adventurous spirit within a man than a secure future. The very basic core of a man’s living spirit is his passion for adventure. The joy of life comes from our encounters with new experiences, and hence there is no greater joy than to have an endlessly changing horizon, for each day to have a new and different sun.

J'aimerais te donner ce conseil encore une fois: je pense que tu devrais changer radicalement ton style de vie et te mettre à faire courageusement des choses que tu n'aurais jamais pensé faire, ou que tu as trop hésité à essayer. Il y a tant de gens qui ne sont pas heureux et qui, pourtant, ne prendront pas l'initiative de changer leur situation parce qu'ils sont conditionnés à vivre dans la sécurité, le conformisme et le conservatisme, toutes choses qui semblent apporter la paix de l'esprit, mais rien n'est plus nuisible à l'esprit aventureux d'un homme qu'un avenir assuré. Le noyau central de l'esprit vivant d'un homme, c'est sa passion pour l'aventure.
