“_Those who wish to forget painful thoughts do well to absent
themselves for a time from the ties and objects that recall
them; but we can be said only to fulfil our destiny in the place
that gave us birth. I should on this account like well enough to
spend the whole of my life in travelling abroad, if I could
anywhere borrow another life to spend afterwards at home._”——
WILLIAM HAZLITT: _On Going a Journey_.
