"Travel is the realm of the impossible adventures, the quick fix, the ship passing in the night. Â It entitles you to meet interesting people, whom you would never meet, even if you laid traps or advertised for them. Â Not only do you met them, but you also unmeet them, all in the space of, it often seems, a mere compacted evening. Â As there is so little time, bodies in motion drop their guardÂ and immediately get on with their stories. Â Then the proverbial ships part, each to its destination, never again to brush each other's wake."

“We're all lost. The best chance we got is to wander this life with the people who matter.”

“With regard to the learned professions, little need be observed; they truly form no distinct interest in society . . . [discussing the landed, merchant, and learned classes in legislative assembly]. Will not the man of the learned profession, who will feel a neutrality to the rivalships between the different branches of industry, be likely to prove an impartial arbiter between them, ready to promote either, so far as it shall appear to him conducive to the general interests of society?”
