“This was never about the money, this
was about us against the system. That system that kills the human
spirit. We stand for something. We are here to show those guys that are
inching their way on the freeways in their metal coffins that the human
spirit is still alive.”

We approach the world, futilely, as collectors. Travel demonstrates as much as any personal intimacy that we cannot elicit perfect, unmoving loyalty. Writing anything down is basically sentimental, an act of preservation, an attempt to hold a moment or image still. Travel writing wants to defeat the impermanence of being in any one place. In keeping records of the intangible—people or places or experiences –we attempt to forget that the things we love are not, in fact, things, and therefore can’t be kept, preserved, or possessed.

— Walter Benjamin
