Why is every one in such a hurry? I thought it was the journey, not the
destination?


It's not the journey, nor the destination.

It's how you arrive.


It's not the journey, nor the destination nor is it how you arrive.

It's about BEING there! If you're not there then you're nowhere. You
discover what you want in life and you put yourself there. Doesn't matter
HOW you put yourself there as long as you do so ethically and morally. All
that matters is that you ARE there. Life's too short to abide anything
less.

Simply put - to thine own self be true.

Ah, the irony of that line.

By whom was it spoken? Was the advice he was giving treated by the
playwrite
as wisdom? Or was the advice to be portrayed as empty words from a
blowhard
of no substance?


That particular phrase is thought to have been first penned by Wm.
Shakespeare, of course. But, in reality, he plagiarized it. He paraphrased
2 Corinthians 13:5 (New International Version)

Examine yourselves to see whether you are in the faith; test yourselves. Do
you not realize that Christ Jesus is in you-unless, of course, you fail the
test?

God Almighty, not mankind, is behind all things.
