“I have set off and found that there is no end to even the simplest journey of the mind. I begin, and straight away a hundred alternative routes present themselves. I choose one, no sooner begin, than a hundred more appear. Every time I try to narrow down my intent I expand it, and yet those straits and canals still lead me to the open sea, and then I realize how vast it all is, this matter of the mind. I am confounded by the shining water and the size of the world.” WorldTryingMindStillsEndsMatterFoundWaterRealizingJourneySeaHundredShiningSizeAlternativesRoutesSimplestLeading MeCanals Book:Sexing the Cherry Source: Sexing the Cherry
“My father took one hundred and thirty-two minutes to die. I counted. It happened on the Jellicoe Road. The prettiest road I’d ever seen, where trees made breezy canopies like a tunnel to Shangri-La. We were going to the ocean, hundreds of miles away, because I wanted to see the ocean and my father said that it was about time the four of us made that journey. I remember asking, 'What’s the difference between a trip and a journey?' and my father said, 'Narnie, my love, when we get there, you’ll understand,' and that was the last thing he ever said.” MadeSaidTwoWantedLastsRememberDiesFatherDifferencesFourHappenedTreeJourneyMinutesOceanHundredAskingMilesThirtyTunnelsMiles AwayPrettiestCanopyBreezyJellicoe RoadShangri Book:Jellicoe Road Source: Jellicoe Road
