I’ve been to Uganda and to North Korea and to Eritrea, countless horror spots around the world.

Being on tour is like being in limbo. It’s like going from nowhere to nowhere.

If you’re embarking around the world in a hot-air balloon, don’t forget the toilet paper.

To the lover of wilderness, Alaska is one of the most wonderful countries in the world.

My life is the road, man. I need to keep moving.

I’m really good at sleeping on planes. I mean, I smell jet fuel and I’m out; I’m asleep for takeoff.

I feel like I have lived all over the world since I get to go everywhere to film.

If you want to go somewhere, it is best to find someone who has already been there.

When you’re on the road and moving city to city, when someone isn’t there at the end of the night, you feel empty.

I would wear the blue overalls of the fieldworker and often wore round, rimless glasses known as Mazzawati teaglasses. I had a car, and I wore a chauffeur’s cap with my overalls. The pose of chauffeur was convenient because I could travel under the pretext of driving my master’s car.

Everyone carries his own inch rule of taste, and amuses himself by applying it, triumphantly, wherever he travels.

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.

By seeing London, I have seen as much of life as the world can show.

I read a lot when I’m travelling and always have a couple of books on the go.

Flying might not be all plain sailing, but the fun of it is worth the price.

I love traveling all over the world; but it’s true: there’s nothing like home.

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

I’ve been here before and will come again, but I’m not going this trip through.

The use of travelling is to regulate imagination by reality, and instead of thinking how things may be, to see them as they are.

The mountains are calling and I must go.

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

Any East Coast road trip we have is very exciting, just being on the road, taking it all in.

In my youth, I traveled much, and I observed in different countries, that the more public provisions were made for the poor, the less they provided for themselves, and of course became poorer. And, on the contrary, the less was done for them, the more they did for themselves, and became richer.

Touring is very routine. You get to the city, you go to the hotel, you got to be at the hotel by a certain time – it’s very routine. I’m not a very structured person, so when I get some structure, it’s cool; it’s good for me.

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.

Never go on trips with anyone you do not love.

I dislike feeling at home when I am abroad.

More understand China, then more people will have interest in China and more people will come to China to visit us because I am a tourist ambassador.

Man, I really like Vegas.

I’m never in the same place for more than, like, three days at a time. Things can change from one minute to the next.

Here ends my forever memorable first High Sierra excursion. I have crossed the Range of Light, surely the brightest and best of all the Lord has built. And, rejoicing in its glory, I gladly, gratefully, hopefully pray I may see it again.

If I can give you one strong piece of advice, when you go away for that romantic weekend, whatever you do, do not accept or take the upgrade to the honeymoon suite.

No place is better than Akron.

The purpose of a vacation is to have the time to rest. But many of us, even when we go on vacation, don’t know how to rest. We may even come back more tired than before we left.

The glamour of it all! New York! America!

When I went back to England after a year away, the country seemed stuck, dozing in a fairy tale, stifled by the weight of tradition.

Fifty years of isolating Cuba had failed to promote democracy, setting us back in Latin America. That’s why we restored diplomatic relations, opened the door to travel and commerce, and positioned ourselves to improve the lives of the Cuban people.

Today, we have private airline companies, but if you take a look at a Boeing plane next time you travel, you’ll see that you are basically taking a ride on a modified bomber.

I used to go away for weeks in a state of confusion.

I never go anywhere. I do sketches and make phone calls, and people visit. It’s more fun to come to Paris.

When you’re traveling constantly, every day you become inspired, and it shows in my work, sonically, lyrically, visually. Conversations with women with different accents and stories told in those accents. I like to create characters based on different people I’ve met, and relationships. I like to tell stories loosely based on real-life events.

I’ll stay in Memphis.

Many a trip continues long after movement in time and space have ceased.

When I am abroad, I always make it a rule never to criticize or attack the government of my own country. I make up for lost time when I come home.

To start with, I love New York… It’s a little bit of the whole world… In New York, the whole world comes to you.

It’s wonderful to be here in the great state of Chicago.

As I got older, my pops tried to keep me involved with the culture by telling me the stories of the conflict between Ethiopia and Eritrea, how he came to America, and about our family back home, because all that side of my family – my aunties, grandparents – is in Africa.

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.

People want to go out and travel around and meet cool people. I could just go live in Vermont, but is that what I really want?

There is no way I would ask others to go on a Virgin Galactic flight if I didn’t feel it was safe enough for myself.

I doubt anyone else would have travelled as extensively as I have to meet the citizens of the country.

I was born in Europe… and I’ve traveled all over the world. I can tell you that there is no place, no country, that is more compassionate, more generous, more accepting, and more welcoming than the United States of America.

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.

Your true traveller finds boredom rather agreeable than painful. It is the symbol of his liberty – his excessive freedom. He accepts his boredom, when it comes, not merely philosophically, but almost with pleasure.

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.

I shall make that trip. I shall go to Korea.

Capitalism has worked very well. Anyone who wants to move to North Korea is welcome.

Everywhere is nowhere. When a person spends all his time in foreign travel, he ends by having many acquaintances, but no friends.

With the casino and the beds, our passengers will have at least two ways to get lucky on one of our flights.

Modern travelling is not travelling at all; it is merely being sent to a place, and very little different from becoming a parcel.

You’d have a hard time finding anything better than Barcelona for food, as far as being a hub. Given a choice between Barcelona and San Sebastian to die in, I’d probably want to die in San Sebastian.
