From "Gutter Bravado":

"Still very impatient, I wanted the whole deal right away.

That's why I related so well to the story about a
wide-eyed new person and an oldtimer. When the
newcomer approached the oldtimer, envying his
accomplishments and many years of sobriety, the
oldtimer slapped down his hand like a gavel and said,
'I'll trade you even! My thirty years to your thirty
days—right now!' He knew what the newcomer had
yet to find out: that true happiness is found in the
journey, not the destination."
