I remember a statement that went:

"Except in directions in which one can go too far, there are probably not
directions worth going." I don't remember from it came, but I would sure
like to know.

Cheers,
Peter

Does anyone have any idea about the source of the following Eliot
quote?:

"Except in directions in which we can go too far there is no interest
in going at all: and only those who will risk going too far can
possibly find out just how far to go."

I've already tried concordances of Eliot's poems/plays, with no luck.
Any ideas what essay it could be from?

Thanks
