by Matsuo Bashō (1644-1694)
The Narrow Road to the Interior
The moon and sun are eternal travelers. Even the years wander on. A lifetime adrift in a boat or in old age leading a tired horse into the years, every day is a journey, and the journey itself is home.
From Narrow road to the interior by Matsuo Bashō
