  • The New Frontiers of Freedom, In Barbary, The Last Frontier and Where the Strange Trails Go Down

    The wander-thirst is like the drug-habit. Once you acquire it you are done for. It will never let you rest.

  • Fighting in Flanders and Vive la France

    War correspondents regard war very much as a doctor regards sickness. I don't suppose that a doctor is actually glad that people are sick, but so long as sickness exists in the world he feels that he might as well get the benefit of it.
