“Always keep Ythaca on your mind. To arrive there is your ultimate goal. But do not hurry the voyage at all. It is better to let it last for many years; and to anchor at the island when you are old, rich with all you have gained on the way, not expecting that Ythaca will offer you riches.

Wise as you have become, with so much experience, you must already have understood what Ythaca mean.” Konstantínos Kaváfis
