| Your
true traveler finds boredom rather agreeable than painful. It is the
symbol of his liberty - his excessive
freedom. He accepts his boredom, when it comes, not merely philosophically,
but almost with
pleasure. Aldous
Huxley |
|
|
It
is impossible to travel faster than the speed of light, and certainly
not desirable, as one's hat keeps
blowing off. Woody
Allen |
|
|
Travel
is fatal to prejudice, bigotry, and narrow-mindedness.Mark
Twain |
|
|
All
travel has its advantages. If the passenger visits better countries,
he may learn to improve his own.
And if fortune carries him to worse, he may learn to enjoy it. Samuel
Johnson |
|
|
Travel
is glamorous only in retrospect. Paul
Theroux |
|

"To
awaken alone in a strange town is one of the pleasantest sensations
in the world."Dame
Freya Stark (1893-1993), English novelist and travel writer |

The
real meaning of travel, like that of a conversation by the fireside,
is the discovery of oneself through
contact with other people, and its condition is self-commitment in
the dialogue. Paul
Tournier |

Travel,
instead of broadening the mind, often merely lengthens the conversation.
Elizabeth
Drew |

Travel
can be one of the most rewarding forms of introspection. Lawrence
Durrell |
|
| When
you travel, remember that a foreign country is not designed to make
you comfortable. It is designed
to make its own people comfortable. Clifton
Paul Fadiman |
|
| People
travel to wonder at the height of the mountains, at the huge waves
of the seas, at the long course
of the rivers, at the vast compass of the ocean, at the circular motion
of the stars, and yet they
pass by themselves without wondering. Saint
Augustine |
