‘Walking is good for untangling a tangled heart.’
Inspired by the final shot of Modern Times Charles Chaplin in which the gamine girl and the tramp walk away from the camera.
I have met with but one or two persons in the course
of my life who understood the art of Walking, that is,
of taking walks, — who had a genius, so to speak, for
sauntering, which word is beautifully derived “from
idle people who roved about the country, in the Middle
Ages, and asked for charity, under pretense of going a la
Sainte Terre,” to the Holy Land.’
