An early-morning walk is a blessing for the whole day.

We should go forth on the shortest walk, perchance, in the spirit of undying adventure, never to return; prepared to send back our embalmed hearts only, as relics to our desolate kingdoms. If you are ready to leave father and mother, and brother and sister, and wife and child and friends, and never see them again; if you have paid your debts, and made your will, and settled all your affairs, and are a free man; then you are ready for a walk.

In my afternoon walk I would fain forget all my morning occupations and my obligations to society.

Pursue some path, however narrow and crooked, in which you can walk with love and reverence.

Front yards are not made to walk in, but, at most, through, and you could go in the back way.

We must walk consciously only part way toward our goal, and then leap in the dark to our success.
