Something I found while researching...

"Adventure is as humdrum as routine unless one assimilates it...[and]...relates it to a central core that grows within and gives it...significance. ...It is not what one does, but what one realizes that keeps existence from being vain and trivial. ...It is the artist, the knower, the sayer...who takes the raw lump of ore we find in nature, smelts it, refines it...and stamps it into coins we can pass from hand to hand..."

-Lewis Mumford
