You mustn't feel sorry for me. Don't you see I'm happy at last - free - free! - freed from the farm - free to wander on and on - eternally! Look! Isn't it beautiful beyond the hills? I can hear the old voices calling me to come - And this time I'm going! It isn't the end. It's a free beginning - the start of my voyage! I've won to my trip - the right of release - beyond the horizon! Oh, you ought to be glad - glad - for my sake!

I'm really glad I grew up there.

It's the cruelest thing in the world. If it get a hook in you, maybe it never let you go no matter how hopeless things really is.” He closed up the sack and laughed. "I remember what my grand-mère used to say 'round breakfas' time. My brother John he's always after her to fix pancakes. Firs' ting ever' mornin' he say, ‘Well, I hope we're goin' to have pancakes.' And my grand-mère she tell him jus' be glad his belly's full, him, and then she say, ‘You keep your hope for tomorrow, boy, 'cause we got grits for today.'” He stood and shouldered the sack.
