The adventure of the hero is the adventure of being alive

When you have lived your individual life in your own adventurous way and then look back upon its course, you will find that you have lived a model human life, after all.

Furthermore, we have not even to risk the adventure alone; for the heroes of all time have gone before us; the labyrinth is thoroughly
known; we have only to follow the thread of the heropath. And where we had thought to find an abomination, we shall find a god; where we had thought to slay another, we shall slay ourselves; where we had thought to travel outward, we
shall come to the center of our own existence; where we had thought to be alone, we shall be with all the world.

The big question is whether you are going to be able to say a hearty yes to your adventure.

I first adventure, follow me who list / And be the second English satirist.

In the empty immensity of earth, sky, and water, there she was, incomprehensible, firing into a continent.
