      "Afoot and light-hearted I take to the open road,

      Healthy, free, the world before me,

      The long brown path before me leading wherever I choose"

      "Henceforth I ask not good-fortune, I myself am good-fortune,

      Henceforth I whimper no more, postpone no more, need nothing,

      Done with indoor complaints, libraries, querulous criticisms,

      Strong and content I travel the open road."

      —Walt Whitman
