To other countries, I may go as a tourist, but to India, I come as a pilgrim.

I 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.

You go back to the 17th century, the commercial and industrial centers of the world were China and India.

Until 1914 I loved to travel; I often went to Italy and once spent a few months in India. Since then I have almost entirely abandoned travelling, and I have not been outside of Switzerland for over ten years.

I want to give people a taste of the Caribbean, and show them the fun side of me.

I love travelling full stop – so while I’ve had some harrowing instances, I never look at them negatively. Memories are made when you’re travelling – not when you’re chained to your desk.

You and I come by road or rail, but economists travel on infrastructure.

The traveler sees what he sees, the tourist sees what he has come to see.

I never travel without my diary. One should always have something sensational to read in the train.

One of the triumphs of the Civil Rights Movement is that when you travel through the South today, you do not feel overwhelmed by a residue of grievance and hate.

I believe that a government has only one religion – India first. A government has only one holy book – our Constitution. A government has only one kind of devotion – towards nation.

I 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.

A man who has not been in Italy, is always conscious of an inferiority.

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

If you had to buy a new plane every time you flew somewhere, it would be incredibly expensive.

What the ISL has done is create the hype and buzz around football that it very badly needs.

When 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. I went there not knowing anything, except that I thought the whole thing was stupid and that I wanted to see who these people were that we were going to bomb.

Fuel prices are at the center of our lives. They affect our ability to travel, stay warm, and feed ourselves.

I went by myself to Hollywood, I spoke no English, every day I had to go to school.

I really miss having a routine because now I’ve been on the road constantly for several months. I like routines, so it would be nice to get those routines back.

India can live without nuclear weapons. That’s our dream, and it should be the dream of the U.S. also.

I want to work; then, as my kids get older, I want to have adventures. I want to visit all their countries: learn and live inside all their cultures.

Perhaps travel cannot prevent bigotry, but by demonstrating that all peoples cry, laugh, eat, worry, and die, it can introduce the idea that if we try and understand each other, we may even become friends.

Buy the ticket, take the ride.

Steak and Shake in Indianapolis is definitely the first stop when we hit that city.

You just feel a little odd when you don’t get your kind of food. Fortunately, there are Indian restaurants all over the world.

If you are lucky enough to have lived in Paris as a young man, then wherever you go for the rest of your life it stays with you, for Paris is a moveable feast.

Anyone who doesn’t have a great time in San Francisco is pretty much dead to me.

That’s one of the biggest things. Never being home, always traveling, having different interests and focusing on different things, just the time aspect of going back home and seeing them, you don’t have that at all. It was a big sacrifice but, at the end of the day, it was worth it.

The Indians on board said that thence to Cuba was a voyage in their canoes of a day and a half; these being small dug-outs without a sail. Such are their canoes. I departed thence for Cuba, for by the signs the Indians made of its greatness, and of its gold and pearls, I thought that it must be Cipango.

I’m not afraid to look like a big, hairy, smelly, foreign devil in Tokyo, though I do my best not to, I really do.

When I was a young kid, I did not even dream about playing for my country. It was such a farfetched thing to play for India.

Places I’ve lived since then had to have some kind of uniqueness and character about them. And logically Key West, and then Down Island. So, all of that stuff sort of had it’s roots in New Orleans and went crazy.

I’ve been everywhere in the world, seen everything, had everything a man can have.

India’s trade deficit is because of excess of import over exports.

I always seem to get inspiration and renewed vitality by contact with this great novel land of yours which sticks up out of the Atlantic.

My experiences in life are getting bigger and better. The more stuff I do, the more stuff I talk about – having kids, traveling, going through relationship problems, dealing with things in my own family. All that stuff builds character.

The land created me. I’m wild and lonesome. Even as I travel the cities, I’m more at home in the vacant lots.

I got to Africa. I got the opportunity to go and learn, not about any animal, but chimpanzees. I was living in my dream world, the forest in Gombe National Park in Tanzania. It was Tanganyika when I began.

The whole object of travel is not to set foot on foreign land; it is at last to set foot on one’s own country as a foreign land.

London is a roost for every bird.

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

I remember as a little girl going down to the beet fields in the Dakotas and in Nebraska and Wyoming as migrant workers when I was very, very small, like, I was, like, 5 years old, I believe. And I remember going out there, you know, traveling to these states and living in these little tarpaper shacks that they had in Wyoming.

People from all over the world come to London wanting to make their own mark on it, and they add to the energy and vitality of the capital. It’s got a bit busier since the ’60s, but the more the merrier!
