Travel
The saying "Getting there is half the fun" became obsolete with the advent of commercial airlines.

Best Quotes about Travel
They change their climate, not their soul, who rush across the sea.
Horace
The alternative to a vacation is to stay home and tip every third person you see.
The traveler, however virginal and enthusiastic, does not enjoy an unbroken ecstasy. He has periods of gloom, periods when he asks himself the object of all these exertions, and puts the question whether or not he is really experiencing pleasure. At such times he suspects that he is not seeing the right things, that the characteristic, the right aspects of these strange scenes are escaping him. He looks forward dully to the days of his holiday yet to pass, and wonders how he will dispose of them. He is disgusted because his money is not more, his command of the language so slight, and his capacity for enjoyment so limited.
Bennett, Arnold
The routines of tourism are even more monotonous than those of daily life.
Cooley, Mason
A man should ever be ready booted to take his journey.
Montaigne, Michel Eyquem De
He travels best that knows when to return. Middleton For my part, I travel not to go anywhere, but to go. I travel for travel's sake. The great affair is to move.
Stevenson, Robert Louis
For the perfect idler, for the passionate observer it becomes an immense source of enjoyment to establish his dwelling in the throng, in the ebb and flow, the bustle, the fleeting and the infinite. To be away from home and yet to feel at home anywhere; to see the world, to be at the very center of the world, and yet to be unseen of the world, such are some of the minor pleasures of those independent, intense and impartial spirits, who do not lend themselves easily to linguistic definitions. The observer is a prince enjoying his incognito wherever he goes.
Baudelaire, Charles
Only the traveling is good which reveals to me the value of home and enables me to enjoy it better.
Thoreau, Henry David
Visits always give pleasure; if not the arrival, the departure.
Proverb
If my ship sails from sight, it doesn't mean my journey ends, it simply means the river bends.
Powell, John Enoch
The country of the tourist pamphlet always is another country, an embarrassing abstraction of the desirable that, thank God, does not exist on this planet, where there are always ants and bad smells and empty Coca-Cola bottles to keep the grubby finger-print of reality upon the beautiful.
Gordimer, Nadine
Life, as the most ancient of all metaphors insists, is a journey; and the travel book, in its deceptive simulation of the journey's fits and starts, rehearses life's own fragmentation. More even than the novel, it embraces the contingency of things.
Raban, Jonathan
What childishness is it that while there's breath of life in our bodies, we are determined to rush to see the sun the other way around?
Bishop, Elisabeth
Traveling, you realize that differences are lost: each city takes to resembling all cities, places exchange their form, order, distances, a shapeless dust cloud invades the continents.
Calvino, Italo
Travel is a fools paradise.
Emerson, Ralph Waldo
Thanks to the Interstate Highway System, it is now possible to travel from coast to coast without seeing anything.
Charles Kuralt
A solitary traveler can sleep from state to state, from day to night, from day to day, in the long womb of its controlled interior. It is the cradle that never stops rocking after the lullaby is over. It is the biggest sleeping tablet in the world, and no one need ever swallow the pill, for it swallows them.
Teran, Lisa St. Aubin De
I swims in the Tagus all across at once, and I rides on an ass or a mule, and swears Portuguese, and have got a diarrhea and bites from the mosquitoes. But what of that? Comfort must not be expected by folks that go a pleasuring.
Byron, Lord
Modern tourist guides have helped raised tourist expectations. And they have provided the natives -- from Kaiser Wilhelm down to the villagers of Chichacestenango -- with a detailed and itemized list of what is expected of them and when. These are the up-to-date scripts for actors on the tourists stage.
Boorstin, Daniel J.
The modern American tourist now fills his experience with pseudo-events. He has come to expect both more strangeness and more familiarity than the world naturally offers. He has come to believe that he can have a lifetime of adventure in two weeks and all the thrills of risking his life without any real risk at all.
Boorstin, Daniel J.
A wise traveler never depreciates their own country.
Goldoni, Carlo
I am not much an advocate for traveling, and I observe that men run away to other countries because they are not good in their own, and run back to their own because they pass for nothing in the new places. For the most part, only the light characters travel. Who are you that have no task to keep you at home?
Emerson, Ralph Waldo
Travel only with thy equals or thy betters; if there are none, travel alone.
The Dhammapada
A man travels the world over in search of what he needs and returns home to find it.
George Moore
Worth seeing? Yes; but not worth going to see.
Johnson, Samuel
Using a camera appeases the anxiety which the work-driven feel about not working when they are on vacation and supposed to be having fun. They have something to do that is like a friendly imitation of work: they can take pictures.
Sontag, Susan
Most travel is best of all in the anticipation or the remembering; the reality has more to do with losing your luggage.
Nadelson, Regina
Being on tour sends me crazy, I drink too much and out comes the John Mcenroe in me.
Hynde, Chrissie
A man who leaves home to mend himself and others is a philosopher; but he who goes from country to country, guided by the blind impulse of curiosity, is a vagabond.
Goldsmith, Oliver
Like all great travelers, I have seen more than I remember and remember more than I have seen.
Disraeli, Benjamin
The use of traveling is to regulate imagination by reality, and instead of thinking how things may be, to see them as they are.
Johnson, Samuel
Travel and society polish one, but a rolling stone gathers no moss, and a little moss is a good thing on a man.
Burroughs, John
Traveling is like gambling: it is always connected with winning and losing, and generally where it is least expected we receive, more or less than what we hoped for.
Goethe, Johann Wolfgang Von
Travelers are like poets. They are mostly an angry race.
Burton, Sir Richard
If you look like your passport picture you're too ill to travel.
Kommen, Will
Travel is glamorous only in retrospect.
Theroux, Paul
The map is not the territory.
Korzybski, Alfred
As for pictures and museums, that don't trouble me. The worst of going abroad is that you've always got to look at things of that sort. To have to do it at home would be beyond a joke.
Oliphant, Margaret
He who is only a traveler learns things at second-hand and by the halves, and is poor authority. We are most interested when science reports what those men already know practically or instinctively, for that alone is a true humanity, or account of human experience.
Thoreau, Henry David
Does this boat go to Europe, France?
Loos, Anita
Travel is ninety percent anticipation and ten percent recollection.
Streeter, Edward
Thanks to the interstate highway system, it is now possible to travel across the country from coast to coast without seeing anything.
Kuralt, Charles
The saying "Getting there is half the fun" became obsolete with the advent of commercial airlines.
Henry J. Tillman
When one realizes that his life is worthless he either commits suicide or travels.
Dahlberg, Edward
The traveler sees what he sees, the tourist see what he has come to see.
Chesterton, Gilbert K.
There is no looking at a building here after seeing Italy.
Burney, Fanny
The bigger the summer vacation the harder the fall.
Before he sets out, the traveler must possess fixed interests and facilities to be served by travel.
George Santayana
People commonly travel the world over to see rivers and mountains, new stars, garish birds, freak fish, grotesque breeds of human; they fall into an animal stupor that gapes at existence and they think they have seen something.
Kierkegaard, S°ren
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 Fadiman
