Education is the best provision for the journey to old age. He who follows the river comes at last to the sea. Life is a dream walking, death is a going home. The road that is built in hope is more pleasant to the traveler than the road built in despair, even though they both lead to the same destination. A truly happy person is one who can enjoy the scenery on a detour. Happiness is not a station you arrive at, but a manner of traveling. Rivers know this: there is no hurry. We shall get there some day. Life is a journey that must be traveled no matter how bad the roads and accommodations. Sometimes the destination is worth all the troubles you endure along the way.
