"...There was no planning for retirement. There was no planning for a career. There was no planning. No time for planning. No time for a future. But then the life spans started getting longer, and people started having more and more future, and so they spent more time thinking about it. About the future. And now life has become the future. Every moment of your life is lived for the future."

"TWO YEARS HE WALKS THE EARTH. NO PHONE, NO POOL, NO PETS, NO
CIGARETTES. ULTIMATE FREEDOM. AN EXTREMIST. AN AESTHETIC VOYAGER
WHOSE HOME IS THE ROAD. ESCAPED FROM ATLANTA. THOU SHALT
NOT RETURN, 'CAUSE "THE WEST IS THE BEST." AND NOW AFTER TWO
RAMBLING YEARS COMES THE FINAL AND GREATEST ADVENTURE. THE
CLIMACTIC BATTLE TO KILL THE FALSE BEING WITHIN AND VICTORIOUSLY
CONCLUDE THE SPIRITUAL REVOLUTION. TEN DAYS AND NIGHTS OF
FREIGHT TRAINS AND HITCHHIKING BRING HIM TO THE GREAT WHITE
NORTH. NO LONGER TO BE POISONED BY CIVILIZATION HE FLEES, AND
WALKS ALONE UPON THE LAND TO BECOME LOST IN THE WILD."
