Travel

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
Travel Motivational Quotes



Best Quotes about Travel

1.
Travel is a fools paradise.
Emerson, Ralph Waldo

2.
Traveling makes a man wiser, but less happy.
Jefferson, Thomas

3.
Without stirring abroad, one can know the whole world; Without looking out of the window one can see the way of heaven. The further one goes the less one knows.
Lao-Tzu

4.
Travel is ninety percent anticipation and ten percent recollection.
Streeter, Edward

5.
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

6.
In the middle ages people were tourists because of their religion, whereas now they are tourists because tourism is their religion.
Runcie, Robert

7.
Travel only with thy equals or thy betters; if there are none, travel alone.
The Dhammapada

8.
The fool wanders, a wise man travels.
Fuller, Thomas

9.
Life is a journey that must be traveled no matter how bad the roads and accommodations.
Goldsmith, Oliver

10.
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

11.
Travel is glamorous only in retrospect.
Theroux, Paul

12.
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.

13.
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

14.
Travelers are like poets. They are mostly an angry race.
Burton, Sir Richard

15.
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

16.
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

17.
I have just been all round the world and have formed a very poor opinion of it.
Beecham, Sir Thomas

18.
A route differs from a road not only because it is solely intended for vehicles, but also because it is merely a line that connects one point with another. A route has no meaning in itself; its meaning derives entirely from the two points that it connects. A road is a tribute to space. Every stretch of road has meaning in itself and invites us to stop. A route is the triumphant devaluation of space, which thanks to it has been reduced to a mere obstacle to human movement and a waste of time.
Kundera, Milan

19.
Worth seeing? Yes; but not worth going to see.
Johnson, Samuel

20.
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

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

22.
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

23.
Sailing round the world in a dirty gondola oh, to be back in the land of Coca-Cola!
Dylan, Bob

24.
The saying "Getting there is half the fun" became obsolete with the advent of commercial airlines.
Henry J. Tillman

25.
Being on tour sends me crazy, I drink too much and out comes the John Mcenroe in me.
Hynde, Chrissie

26.
The true traveler is he who goes on foot, and even then, he sits down a lot of the time.
Colette

27.
The average tourist wants to go to places where there are no tourists.
Ewing, Sam

28.
They change their climate, not their soul, who rush across the sea.
Horace

29.
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

30.
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.

31.
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, SĀ°ren

32.
Old men and far travelers may lie with authority.

33.
An involuntary return to the point of departure is, without doubt, the most disturbing of all journeys.
Sinclair, Iain

34.
The travel writer seeks the world we have lost --the lost valleys of the imagination.
Cockburn, Alexander

35.
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

36.
Writing and travel broaden your ass if not your mind and I like to write standing up.
Hemingway, Ernest

37.
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

38.
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.

39.
The map is not the territory.
Korzybski, Alfred

40.
A journey is like marriage. The certain way to be wrong is to think you control it.
Steinbeck, John

41.
He that travels in theory has no inconveniences; he has shade and sunshine at his disposal, and wherever he alights finds tables of plenty and looks of gaiety. These ideas are indulged till the day of departure arrives, the chaise is called, and the progress of happiness begins. A few miles teach him the fallacies of imagination. The road is dusty, the air is sultry, the horses are sluggish. He longs for the time of dinner that he may eat and rest. The inn is crowded, his orders are neglected, and nothing remains but that he devour in haste what the cook has spoiled, and drive on in quest of better entertainment. He finds at night a more commodious house, but the best is always worse than he expected.
Johnson, Samuel

42.
If it's tourist season, why can't we kill them?

43.
The alternative to a vacation is to stay home and tip every third person you see.

44.
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

45.
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

46.
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

47.
Life on board a pleasure steamer violates every moral and physical condition of healthy life except fresh air. It is a guzzling, lounging, gambling, dog's life. The only alternative to excitement is irritability.
Shaw, George Bernard

48.
Only the traveling is good which reveals to me the value of home and enables me to enjoy it better.
Thoreau, Henry David

49.
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

50.
In America there are two classes of travel - first class, and with children.
Benchley, Robert
