with the heart weeping,
and the hope that distance
brings the solving wonder
of one last clear view
before that long sleep
about the weather's changes

Body shall cumber
Soul-flight no more.

If you think of all the enduring stories in the world, they're of journeys. Whether it's 'Don Quixote' or 'Ulysses,' there's always this sense of a quest - of a person going away to be tested, and coming back.

You have sat too long for any good you have been doing. Depart, I say, and let us have done with you. In the name of God, go!

Sojourn Quotes : pic 000555640
So many truths have been kept from me. This violent, pointless voyage has been sopping with blood. I feel thick and sick with it. And that is all: contingent and brutal without meaning. There is nothing to be learnt here. No ecstatic forgetting. There is no redemption in the sea.
Sojourn Quotes : pic 000588607
The politics of the exile are fever,
revenge, daydream,
theater of the aging convalescent.

Sojourn Quotes : pic 000950992
Here halt, I pray you, make a little stay. O wayfarer, to read what I have writ, And know by my fate what thy fate shall be. What thou art now, so shall thou be. The world's delight I followed with a heart Unsatisfied: ashes am I, and dust.

Sojourn Quotes : pic 001281873

Sojourn Quotes : pic 000721413

A stranger, without love's sweet claim
On any heart, go where I may!

I have ventured, Like little wanton boys that swim on bladders, This many summers in a sea of glory, But far beyond my depth. My high-blown pride At length broke under me, and now has left me, Weary and old with service, to the mercy Of a rude stream that must for ever hide me.

don't leave without living

Sojourn Quotes : pic 001231354

It is suicide to be abroad. But what it is to be at home, ... what it is to be at home? A lingering dissolution.
Sojourn Quotes : pic 000422798
Followers of trails and of seasons, breakers of camp in the little dawn wind, seekers of watercourses over the wrinkled rind of the world, o seekers, o finders of reasons to be up and be gone ...

Find we a time for frighted peace to pant
And breathe short-winded accents of new broils
To be commenced in stronds afar remote.
Sojourn Quotes : pic 000914813
A fondness for roving, for making a name for themselves in their onw country, and for boasting of what they had seen in their travels, was so strong in our two wanderers, that they resolved to be no longer happy; and demanded permission of the king to leave the country.

Sojourn Quotes : pic 000072375
I too have known the inward disturbance of exile,
The great peril of being at home nowhere,
The dispersed center, the dividing love;
Not here, nor there, leaping across ocean,
Turning, returning to each strong allegiance;
American, but with this difference - parting.
