We shall not cease from exploration.
And the end of all our exploring
will be to arrive where we started,
and to know the place for the first time.
Through the unknown, remembered gate,
when the last ofthe earth left to discover
is that which was the beginning;
From T. S. Eliot,Little Gidding, Four Quartets
