'Such said' said Nekayah, "is the state of life, that none are happy by the anticipation of change; the change itself is nothing; when we have made it, the next wish is to change again.
The world is not yet exhausted; let me see something to-morrow which I never saw before"
The History of Rasselas. Prince of Abyssinia. Samuel Johnson

I verily believe that nor you, nor any man of poetical temperament, can avoid a strong passion of some kind. It is the poetry of life. What should I have known or written, had I been a quiet, mercantile politician, or a lord in waiting? A man must travel, and turmoil , or there is no existence.
Lord Byron
