“The urge to be someplace else”

Monday quote:

When I was very young and the urge to be someplace else was on me, I was assured by mature people that maturity would cure this itch. When years described me as mature, the remedy prescribed was middle age. In middle age I was assured that greater age would calm my fever, and now that I am fifty-eight, perhaps senility will do the job. Nothing else has worked.”
~ John Steinbeck

I know what he means! That urge to be someplace else strikes me often. :-)
