The world is but a place of shadows. The guest pauses for but a few nights and departs confused, never knowing for sure where he has been. Beyond the horizon he feels certain he will find a better city, a fairer prospect, a more sonorous group of singing companions. But when his camels are tethered he will find himself engaged with still yet another set of shadows.
Show me a man who keeps his two feet on the ground and I'll show you a man who can't get his pants off.
-Both from The Drifters by James A. Michener
