“Where we go depends on what we know, and what we know depends on where we go.”
“How can we know who we are and where we are going if we don't know anything about where we have come from and what we have been through, the courage shown, the costs paid, to be where we are?”
“Anyhow we never know where we must go, nor what guides we are to get---people,storms, guardian angels, or sheep....”
“We are where we are, however we got here. What matters is where we go next.”
“We rarely know where we are going; writing is a discovery.”
“It is important that we know where we come from, because if you do not know where you come from, then you don't know where you are, and if you don't know where you are, you don't know where you're going. And if you don't know where you're going, you're probably going wrong.”
