I once heard an old traveler sitting under a big tree at the entrance of the village say suavely: "Read thousands of books and travel thousands of miles! What you see in books is not as good as what you see with your own eyes. If you have the chance, you must try to travel thousands of miles. See the prosperity of the world and taste the flavor of the world. Only then will you not regret being born in this world."
