... Isn't that a line from a Tolkien poem?

All that is gold does not glitter,
Not all those who wander are lost;
The old that is strong does not wither,
Deep roots are not reached by the frost.
From the ashes a fire shall be woken, A light from the shadows shall spring; Renewed shall be blade that was broken, The crownless again shall be king.
(from 'The Fellowship of the Ring'.)
I think he meant it more generally than just walking around, but a nice reminder nonetheless.
