Leslie Stephen, who in his “In Praise of Walking” takes up Hazlitt’s theme of the musings of the mind, writes, “The walks are the unobtrusive connecting thread of other memories, and yet each walk is a little drama itself, with a definite plot with episodes and catastrophes, according to the requirements of Aristotle, and it is naturally interwoven with all the thoughts, the friendships, and the interests that form the staple of ordinary life.”
Rebecca Solnit, Wanderlust
