Journeys, like artists, are born and not made. A thousand differing circumstances contribute to them, few of them willed or determined by the will --whatever we may think.

Summary

This quote suggests that journeys, similar to artists, are not something that can be manufactured or forced. They are instead a product of numerous circumstances, many of which are beyond our control. Regardless of our intentions or desires, the paths we take in life are influenced by external factors and unpredictable events. The quote highlights the idea that life's journeys cannot always be planned or completely determined by our own willpower.
