➵ The Worst Journey In The World by Apsley Cherry-Garrard (1922)
“And I tell you, if you have the desire for knowledge and want to give it physical expression, go out and explore. Some will tell you, that you are mad, nearly all will ask whats the use? For we are a nation of shopkeepers and no shopkeeper will look at a research which does not promise him a financial return within a year. So you will nearly sledge alone. But those with whom you sledge, will not be shopkeepers. And that is worth a good deal.”
