Quote by Thornton Wilder

The test of an adventure is that when youre in the middle of it, y

The test of an adventure is that when youre in the middle of it, you say to yourself, Oh, now Ive got myself into an awful mess; I wish I were sitting quietly at home. And the sign that somethings wrong with you is when you sit quietly at home wishing you were out having lots of adventure. – Thornton Wilder
