“An aimless joy is a pure joy,” I said, quoting Yeats.
~ Paul Theroux
“Our plans miscarry because they have no aim. When a man does not know what harbour he is making for, no wind is the right wind.”
~ Seneca
“If a man knows not what harbour he seeks, any wind is the right wind.”
~ Seneca
“As long as we wander at large, having no guide and following only the din and jarring cries of men calling us in different directions, our life will be spent in making errors, a life of little enough span even if we should work night and day for a sound understanding.”
~ Seneca
