Epigraph: And so, through all the thick mists of the dim doubts in my mind, divine intuitions now and then shoot, enkindling my fog with a heavenly ray. And for this I thank God; for all have doubts; many deny; but doubts and denials, few along with them, have intuitions. Doubts of all things earthly, and inntuitions of some things heavenly; this combination makes neither believer nor infidel, but makes a man who regards them both with equal eye. Herman Melville.
Travel, in the younger sort, is a part of education; in the elder, a part of experience. Francis Bacon.
