“I’m shakin’ the dust of this crummy little town off my feet and I’m gonna see the world.”

“A temple, you know, was anciently “an open place without a roof,” whose walls served merely to shut out the world and direct the mind toward heaven; but a modern meeting-house shuts out the heavens, while it crowds the world into still closer quarters.”
