i...learned that one cannot really be superior without humility and tolerance and human understanding. i did not yet know that in order to belong to a rare and higher breed one must first develop the true power and talent of selfless immolation...
but before i go, i have just one more thing to tell you:
something has spoken to me in the night, burning the tapers of the waning year; something has spoken in the night, and told me i shall die, i know not where.
saying:
"to lose the earth you know, for greater knowing; to lose the life you have, for greater life; to leave the friends you loved, for greater loving; to find a land more kind than home, more large than earth---
"---whereon the pillars of this earth are founded, toward which the conscience of the world is tending -a wind is rising, and the rivers flow."
-thomas wolfe you can't go home again
