The mind can go in a thousand directions.
But on this beautiful path, I walk in peace.
With each step, a gentle wind blows.
With each step, a flower blooms.
—THICH NHAT HANH, How to Walk, 2015

I am not going to advocate … the abandoning of the improved modes of travel; but I am going to brag as lustily as I can on behalf of the pedestrian, and show how all the shining angels second and accompany the man who goes afoot, while all the dark spirits are ever looking out for a chance to ride.

Proverbios y Cantares (1964)
Traveler, your footsteps are
the path, and nothing else;
traveler, there is no path,
a path is made by walking.
Walking makes the path,
and on looking back
we see a trail that never
can be walked again.
Traveler, there is no path,
Only a wake in the sea.
—ANTONIO MACHADO, Spanish Poet, 1875-1939
