Et c'est ce dernier point qui retient le plus notre attention, car bien qu'ayant été écrites au début du XXe siècle, les pages qui suivent restent très actuelles.

"C'est à ce moment-là, je crois, que je décidai de partir pour un voyage dont j'ignorais la destination et la durée. J'étais désargenté, désenchanté. Mais je voulais me replonger dans le courant de la vie, me battre pour ou contre quelque chose, retrouver l'envie du bonheur et le goût de la peur, lutter contre la force des vents, éprouver la chaleur, le froid, casser des cailloux et, s'il le fallait, creuser les flancs de la terre."
