    They change their sky, not their mind, who cross the sea. A busy
    idleness possesses us: we seek a happy life, with ships and
    carriages: the object of our search is present with us.

The poorer and the baser you appear,
The more you look through still.

before he hath some entrance into the language, goeth to school,
and not to travel.
