'Hesse'

He who travels far will often see things
Far removed from what he believed was Truth.
When he talks about it in the fields at home,
He is often accused of lying.
For the obdurate people will not believe
What they do not see and distinctly feel.
Inexperience, I believe,
Will give little creedence to my song.

From Journey to the East by Herman Hesse
