My touchstone passage is from Robert Frost's poem The Road Not Taken. The last stanza of the poem goes like this: "I shall be telling this with a sigh, Somewhere ages and ages hence: Two roads diverged in a wood, and I-I took the one less traveled by, And that has made all the difference". Taking the harder path traveled by the few is the kind of life that I want, and I know it will mean all the difference. You only live once, so choose the path traveled by few and you will be amazed at what you can find and how individual, and not drone-like, you will become.
This is my touchstone passage because I constantly refer to the last two lines to describe choices in life.
