The knowing

"The Canarsie People said the knowing belongs to the old and wise, but the unfolding is in the keeping of the young. The old prevent the young from straying off the path of wisdom. The young yearn after the path of dreams. Between the two there is truth."


From "City of Dreams: A Novel of Niew Amsterdam and Early Manhattan by Beverly Swerling.
