Rather than love, than money, than fame, give me truth
















"And now, after two rambling years, comes the final and greatest adventure. The climatic battle to kill the false being and victoriously conclude the spiritual revolution."
Alexander Supertramp

"So, in two seconds, away we went, a sliding down
The river, and it did seem so good to be
Free again and all by ourselves on the big
River and nobody to bother us."
Mark Twain – The adventures do Huckleberry Finn

"We are, finally, all wanderers in search of knowledge. Most of us
hold the dream of becoming something better than we are, something
larger, richer, in some way more important to he world and
ourselves. Too often, the way taken is the wrong way, with
too much emphasis on what we want to have, rather than what
we wish to become."
Louis L’Amour – Education of a Wandering Man

"Ivan Ilych’s life had been most simple and most ordinary and therefore
most terrible."
Leo Tolstoy – The Death of Ivan Ilych

"All nature is your congratulation, and you have cause momentarily
to bless yourself. The greatest gains and values are farthest from being
appreciated. We easily come to doubt if they exist. We soon forget them.
They are the highest reality… The true harvest of my daily life is somewhat
as intangible and indescribable as the tints of morning of evening.
It is a little star-dust caught, a segment of the rainbow which I have
clutched."
Henry David Thoreau – Walden, or life in the woods.

"There is a pleasure in the pathless woods
There is rapture on the lonely shore
There is a society where none intrudes
By the deep sea and the music in its roar
I love not man the less, but Nature more."
Lord Byron

"Rather than love, than money, than fame, give me truth."
Henry David Thoreau

"I want to go up to them and say stop
don’t do it – she’s the wrong woman
he’s the wrong man, you are going to do things
you cannot imagine you would ever do."
Sharon Okis

"I have lived through much and now I think I have found what is needed for
happiness. A quiet, secluded life in the country with the possibility of
being useful to people.”
Tolstoy
