New Travel Quotes

“I suspect that we ramblers, we motion addicts, suffer from a kind of difference addiction, too. We like to see change, to observe X and Y and then ponder the slope of the line that might be drawn between them. Things change back home; the weather, for example - that creek that floods then recedes. But those places on the other side of various borders - and as I write this I’m just five hours from Mexico - make for the steepest slopes, the largest differences.”

~Mitchell Stevens

“Real travel requires a maximum of unscheduled wandering, for there is no other way of discovering surprises and marvels, which, as I see it, is the only good reason for not staying at home."

~Alan Watts


Go far.
Stay long.
See deep.
And may the sun rise twice before you sleep.

~Unknown


A good traveler has no fixed plans, and is not intent on arriving.

~Lao Tzu


"Without new experiences, something inside of us sleeps. The sleeper must awaken."

~Frank Herbert
