McCandles describes what he is looking for on his odyssey, particularly on the Alaska trip, as "ultimate freedom". It would seem that this largely represents, to him, freedom from other people's rules and authority over him. Throughout his whole life he finds authority particuarly oppressive, especially when exercised by anyone who feels only has such power over him. To live completely alone, in a world where the only laws he feels the need to follow are those of nature, is to him ultimate freedom.<span />

____ [38]

Answer:

Believe in yourself instead of conforming to the values of others.

Explanation:

Philosopher Ralph Waldo Emerson in his essay "Self Reliance" argue about the effect of polite society on an individual's personal growth. Only self sufficiency is capable of providing freedom to an individual in discovering their true self and worth, bringing forth true independence on the individual.

He emphasized on the importance of an individual to follow their own voices rather than trying to conform to the dictates and values set by the society. He posits the issue of self reliance in oneself and the importance of the imaginary thinking capacity of an individual. He also argues that the most important realization for an individual is trusting himself. He promotes self reliance as an ideal virtue for everyone. "Believe in yourself instead of conforming to the values of others" best sums up the passage provided in the question.

Katen [24]

Answer: Standing in stark contrast to Dalat's French colonial villas, the bizarre avant garde guesthouse is a maze of spiral staircases, sculptural bedrooms, undulating surfaces, swirls of bright colors, narrow bridges and hidden nooks.

"Crazy House is a culmination of my life and creativity -- it all came together in this structure," Dang, daughter of Vietnam's former general secretary Truong Chinh, tells CNN Travel.

"I wanted to create something original, pioneering -- different from anything else in the world."
