Sterling Hayden and thoughts on travel - Horizons Unlimited

"I've always wanted to sail to the south seas, but I can't afford it." What these men can't afford is not to go. They are enmeshed in the cancerous discipline of security. And in the worship of security we fling our lives beneath the wheels of routine - and before we know it our lives are gone.

[quotation from Sterling Hayden (1916-1986)]

Hope I get rid of my enmeshment before my life is gone.......

Maybe some specialized form of enema???

Except for familial considerations, there is nothing you have that you had when you started life. You can get more of it. You CAN'T, however, get more time.

Nice quote Chris.

Here's another;

"Just Do It!" Nike

A just do it and care free attitude is what it takes, however one should still retain a level of calculated reservation. The cost (far from just monetary) is usually high, yet the sense of accomplishment rise along with the level of adversity.
