Courage Quote by Gunnar Kopperud
““Vagrancy is deliverance, and a life on the open road is the essence of freedom. To have the courage to smash the chains with which modern life has weighted us (under the pretext that it was offering us more liberty), then to take up the symbolic stick and bundle, and get out.””
