Quotes about Travel

If you look at the map you're only an inch away!

Independent travel does that, bringing temporarily together these wandering ships that would otherwise pass in the night. Relationships were mostly brief and sometimes downright fleeting. The barriers and masks of settled existence melted away, allowing strangers to become fast friends, if only for a day. We travellers needed that, having deliberately stepped away from the social safety net of family, school, work and community.

If you reject the food, ignore the customs, fear the religion and avoid the people, you might better stay at home.

Life's about the journey, not a destination.

Gather only what you need; travel lightly and keep moving forward....the journey will be more joyful with less baggage.

We all travel in two worlds,  the human world and spirit world, with friends from both sides assisting us with our life's journey.

Time does not exist as we think of it today. 

Everything that ever was or ever will be has had, and will have energy. It is impossible to exist without energy.
Time does not have energy and therefore it does not exist. We may continue to measure the distance or the proximity of any event to any other event using any stated measurement of furtherance that we find acceptable.
 We can even call this distance or proximity Time but it is not a force of nature or a Law of the universe and is useless in mathematics.   Any and all scientific experiments that have ever been done in any subject can still be done and will have the same outcome with my statement applied.
All space and all matter and their relation to energy are not changed in any way or degree by removing the overlay of our false understanding of time.   Because time does not exist Timelessness does not exist, so time travel does not exist. 
One can theorize that it is possible to travel to a moment that has already happened or to one that has not happened yet and return but this theory would have nothing to do with time as it is thought of today.
   Thank you.

There is only so much you can learn in one place... the more time that you wait, the more time that you waste...

"Who lives see, who travels see more."

As I Attract The Way, I Will Travel It.

For my part, I travel not to go anywhere, but to go. I travel for travel's sake. The great affair is to move.

Being exposed to the existence of other languages increases the perception that the world is populated by people who not only speak differently from oneself but whose cultures and philosophies are other than one's own. Perhaps travel cannot prevent bigotry but by demonstrating that all people cry, laugh, eat, worry and die, it can introduce the idea that if we try to understand each other, we may even become friends.

Remember what Bilbo used to say: It’s a dangerous business, Frodo, going out your door. You step onto the road, and if you don’t keep your feet, there’s no knowing where you might be swept off to.

I didn’t look back. I couldn’t. Such is life, imaginary or otherwise: a continuous parting of ways, a constant flux of approximation and distanciation, lines of fate intersecting at a point which is no-time, a theoretical crossroads fictitiously “present,” an unstable ice floe forever drifting between was and will be. The Adventure called and I followed with my thumb like a character being written by an intractable author. Which, of course, I was.

I’d been having dreams lately, drunken dreams with their peculiar lucidity in which the Experience Trail, the High Seas seemed to call louder and louder, more and more insistently with a voice that was at the same time music—a siren’s song that almost threatened me if I refused to obey its quixotic urgings …

If you don't know where you are going, any road will take you there.

A child on the farm sees a plane fly overhead
and dreams of a faraway place.....
A traveler on the plane sees the farmhouse
and thinks of home.

The world is a book, and those who do not travel only read a page.

The greatest error of science is in relation to space. Science thinks of space either as a void or as an ether through which solids of matter travel. The fact is that space travels with its solids, for each solid is surrounded by a minus zero equal-and-opposite vacuity of the plus zero which we call matter. Matter floats in these insulating spatial counterparts. Positive electricity is accountable for the solids and negative electricity is accountable for the space. All matter comes out of space by the action of positive electricity and is returned to space by the action of negative electricity. White-hot suns come from the blackness of cold space and cold space radiates from hot suns. The matter of space consists of holes surrounded by corpuscular solids, while the matter of solids consists of small
dense cores surrounded by vast tenuous holes of space. The very purpose of the hot suns is to act as crucibles for melting the raw materials which the Creator needs for expressing the idea of the universe. Contrarily, the very purpose of space is to cool the melted matter set out in order that it may become conditioned for the complex expressions of Creation. The two-way interchange between spatial holes and material solids is continuous."

I want to take time to understand life. I want to travel. I want to be a better person, a better Mom. I want to
do something good with my life.

One watch succeeded another through the day, though how the rabbits judged the passing of the time is something that civilized human beings have lost the power to feel. Creatures that have neither clocks nor books are alive to all manner of knowledge about time and the weather; and about direction too, as we know from their extraordinary migratory and homing journeys. The changes in the warmth and dampness of the soil, the falling of the sunlight patches, the altering movement of the beans in the light wind, the direction and strength of the air currents along the ground - all these were perceived by the rabbit awake.

It's hard to rack up miles on private jets.

I was a stray acquaintance whom he had never seem before and would never see again, a wandered for a moment through his monotonous life, and some starved impulse left him to lay bare his soul.  I have in this way learned more about men in a night than I could if I had known them for 10 years.  If you are interested in human nature, it is one of the greatest pleasures of travel.

I can only guess that it made the world he went back to…strangely without meaning.  Though he lived in it, though he even enjoyed it, it remained utterly remote.  I think it had lost sense for him.  In his heart was the reflection of a lovely dream that he could never quite recall.

I travel because I like to move from place to place, I enjoy the sense of freedom it gives me, it pleases me to be rid of ties, responsibilities, duties, I like the unknown; I meet odd people who amuse me for a moment and sometimes suggest a theme for a composition; I am often tired of myself and I have a notion that by travel I can add to my personality and so change myself a little.  I do not bring back from the journey quite the same self that I took

Thinking can be lateral or "sweaty". For the latter you're better off in an office and following a routine but for the former you have to be "out of your mind", so to speak. So although I recognize the merits of hard work, I find that my work goes stale if I don't go off wandering around the world every few weeks. My friends think I'm a gipsy, but that's when I do "part 1" of my best work.

I wanna hang a map of the world in my house. Then I'm gonna put pins into all the locations that I've traveled to. But first, I'm gonna have to travel to the top two corners of the map so it won't fall down.

The fire of doubt is not extinguished, even by wandering through foreign lands and countries. If inner filth is not removed, one's life is cursed, and one's clothes are cursed.

The Quality of Love or Fear you Carry into each Moment determines which Road you Travel.

Angels are 'beings of light' and therefore travel at the speed of light...
