Travel

Travel is the most private of pleasures. There is no greater bore than the travel bore. We do not in the least want to hear what he has seen in Hong-Kong.
- Sackville-West, Vita
Travel Motivational Quotes



Best Quotes about Travel

1.
In America there are two classes of travel - first class, and with children.
Benchley, Robert

2.
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

3.
Behold then Septimus Dodge returning to Dodge-town victorious. Not crowned with laurel, it is true, but wreathed in lists of things he has seen and sucked dry. Seen and sucked dry, you know: Venus de Milo, the Rhine or the Coliseum: swallowed like so many clams, and left the shells.
Lawrence, D. H.

4.
I have just been all round the world and have formed a very poor opinion of it.
Beecham, Sir Thomas

5.
I never travel without my diary. One should always have something sensational to read on the train.
Wilde, Oscar

6.
I was disappointed in Niagara -- most people must be disappointed in Niagara. Every American bride is taken there, and the sight of the stupendous waterfall must be one of the earliest, if not the keenest, disappointments in American married life.
Wilde, Oscar

7.
Thanks to the Interstate Highway System, it is now possible to travel from coast to coast without seeing anything.
Charles Kuralt

8.
Not so many years ago there was no simpler or more intelligible notion than that of going on a journey. Travel --movement through space --provided the universal metaphor for change. One of the subtle confusions --perhaps one of the secret terrors --of modern life is that we have lost this refuge. No longer do we move through space as we once did.
Boorstin, Daniel J.

9.
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

10.
Travelling is like flirting with life. It's like saying, I would stay and love you, but I have to go; this is my station.
Teran, Lisa St. Aubin De

11.
Like all great travelers, I have seen more than I remember and remember more than I have seen.
Disraeli, Benjamin

12.
They change their climate, not their soul, who rush across the sea.
Horace

13.
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

14.
Travel is glamorous only in retrospect.
Theroux, Paul

15.
In traveling, a man must carry knowledge with him, if he would bring home knowledge.
Johnson, Samuel

16.
For my part, I travel not to go anywhere, but to go. I travel for travel's sake. The great affair is to move; to feel the needs and hitches of our life more nearly; to come down off this feather-bed of civilization, and find the globe granite underfoot and strewn with cutting flints.
Stevenson, Robert Louis

17.
Travel is the most private of pleasures. There is no greater bore than the travel bore. We do not in the least want to hear what he has seen in Hong-Kong.
Sackville-West, Vita

18.
It is better to travel hopefully than to arrive.
Stevenson, Robert Louis

19.
The tourist who moves about to see and hear and open himself to all the influences of the places which condense centuries of human greatness is only a man in search of excellence.
Lerner, Max

20.
Traveling is not just seeing the new; it is also leaving behind. Not just opening doors; also closing them behind you, never to return. But the place you have left forever is always there for you to see whenever you shut your eyes.
Myrdal, Jan

21.
Does this boat go to Europe, France?
Loos, Anita

22.
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

23.
When one realizes that his life is worthless he either commits suicide or travels.
Dahlberg, Edward

24.
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

25.
Travelers are like poets. They are mostly an angry race.
Burton, Sir Richard

26.
The personal appropriation of clich?s is a condition for the spread of cultural tourism.
Daney, Serge

27.
To travel is to discover that everyone is wrong about other countries.
Huxley, Aldous

28.
Thanks to the interstate highway system, it is now possible to travel across the country from coast to coast without seeing anything.
Kuralt, Charles

29.
Comes over one an absolute necessity to move. And what is more, to move in some particular direction. A double necessity then: to get on the move, and to know whither.
Lawrence, D. H.

30.
The fool wanders, a wise man travels.
Fuller, Thomas

31.
Before he sets out, the traveler must possess fixed interests and facilities to be served by travel.
George Santayana

32.
Travel is ninety percent anticipation and ten percent recollection.
Streeter, Edward

33.
Sailing round the world in a dirty gondola oh, to be back in the land of Coca-Cola!
Dylan, Bob

34.
The routines of tourism are even more monotonous than those of daily life.
Cooley, Mason

35.
You perceive I generalize with intrepidity from single instances. It is the tourist's custom.
Twain, Mark

36.
Travel only with thy equals or thy betters; if there are none, travel alone.
The Dhammapada

37.
Writing and travel broaden your ass if not your mind and I like to write standing up.
Hemingway, Ernest

38.
Man is flying too fast for a world that is round. Soon he will catch up with himself in a great rear end collision.
Thurber, James

39.
Should we have stayed at home and thought of here? Where should we be today? Is it right to be watching strangers in a play in this strangest of theatres?
Bishop, Elisabeth

40.
Travel is a fools paradise.
Emerson, Ralph Waldo

41.
The important thing about travel in foreign lands is that it breaks the speech habits and makes you blab less, and breaks the habitual space-feeling because of different village plans and different landscapes. It is less important that there are different mores, for you counteract these with your own reaction-formations.
Goodman, Paul

42.
Those that say you can't take it with you never saw a car packed for a vacation trip.

43.
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

44.
The American arrives in Paris with a few French phrases he has culled from a conversational guide or picked up from a friend who owns a beret.
Allen, Fred A.

45.
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.

46.
If it's tourist season, why can't we kill them?

47.
When I was very young and the urge to be someplace was on me, I was assured by mature people that maturity would cure this itch. When years described me as mature, the remedy prescribed was middle age. In middle age I was assured that greater age would calm my fever and now that I am fifty-eight perhaps senility will do the job. Nothing has worked. In other words, I don't improve, in further words, once a bum always a bum. I fear the disease is incurable.
Steinbeck, John

48.
If we are always arriving and departing, it is also true that we are eternally anchored. One's destination is never a place but rather a new way of looking at things.
Miller, Henry

49.
Travel makes a wise man better, and a fool worse
Fuller, Thomas

50.
Every year it takes less time to fly across the Atlantic and more time to drive to the office.
