With all the travel we’re doing to cold-weather cities, your mind definitely starts to wander. It gets you away from the game. Even when you arrive in a city, you’re tempted to just sit in your hotel and rest. Sometimes it’s nice to just get out and walk around, to see what’s there.

John MuirWhen I was 18, I went to the Soviet Union. I kept hearing that America was planning to bomb them – lots of bombs were going to come down on these people.

Anthony BourdainMan, I really like Vegas.
Elvis PresleyIn utter loneliness a writer tries to explain the inexplicable.

Maya AngelouI always tell people that if I move anywhere it would be Toronto.

Erma BombeckHawaii is paradise. It sounds cheesy to say it, but there’s music in the air there.

Taylor SwiftLife is an unfoldment, and the further we travel the more truth we can comprehend. To understand the things that are at our door is the best preparation for understanding those that lie beyond.
HypatiaThere can never be any stop to learn about different cultures by travelling to different places. And whatever comes your way, continue the healthy eating habits.

Paulo CoelhoI’m touring the world, not doing nothing against the law, getting money to feed my family. I got employees that have felonies, and they can’t get jobs. They work for me.
Nipsey HussleI hope to play until I’m, like, 38 or something, and that’s a lot of years in the game and a lot of travel and a lot of sacrifice on my family’s part.
Stephen CurryI guess I wanted to leave America for awhile. It wasn’t that I wanted to become an expatriate, or just never come back, I needed some breathing room. I’d already been translating French poetry, I’d been to Paris once before and liked it very much, and so I just went.
Paul AusterIn football, I don’t have a lot of friends. The people who I really trust, there are not many… Most of the time, I’m alone.

Oscar WildeWhen so many are lonely as seem to be lonely, it would be inexcusably selfish to be lonely alone.
Tennessee WilliamsI don’t have time to be lonely. And I get fearful of relationships because I feel guilty about wanting someone to be completely faithful and loyal, when I can’t even give them 10 percent of the attention that they need. It’s just the reality of my time, my life, my schedule.
RihannaWhat loneliness is more lonely than distrust?
