"Most of the people I’ve ever met that were addicted to the road were moving away from something. Something mean or wrong or ugly or painful had happened in their life and it kept them on the prod. It kept them going and going. And god help you if you should ever stop and stand still because everything you’re running from bangs into your butt. Then you have a choice. Then you can either keep moving or you can deal with it."
— Utah Phillips, on Starlight on the Rails
