My father used to say, “When a child has never seen the farm of another person, he will keep on boasting, ‘Oh, my father has the largest farm in the world.” And he will say, “No, go to the next town or the town after that, you will see that there are maybe people who have better farms”. And our principal in secondary used to tell us, that was between 1961 and 1966, “Oh, my boys. If you are going to be the leaders of this country, of this world, you must know the world; you must know the country over which you’re going to be leaders. Traveling in not only a part of education, traveling is education.” So, both of them encouraged the faculty of traveling, of movement in me.
