Not all those who wander are lost.

It is better to travel well than to arrive.

The worst way of flying, I think, is standby. It never works. That’s why they call it standby. You end up standing there going, ‚Bye!‘

Back in Oakland, we have a lot of food in the locker room, but on the road, it’s mostly just fruit. So we have to prepare differently. But really, once you get to the gym, everything on the road is pretty much the same.

The learned is happy, nature to explore; The fool is happy, that he knows no more.

I think all documentaries leave out areas of people’s lives. Which is good. There are areas that need not be explored.

I would like to go back to Wales. I’m obsessed with my childhood and at least three times a week dream I am back there.

Africa is probably one of the most beautiful places I have ever been.

Everything is an open book. I don’t speak on other people’s hardship, but if it happened in my life or something that has been an experience on my particular journey, I’m going to talk about it. That’s what my fan base appreciates the most. I’m universal. You can relate to the things I say or that I go through.

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.

It’s a brilliant surface in that sunlight. The horizon seems quite close to you because the curvature is so much more pronounced than here on earth. It’s an interesting place to be. I recommend it.

A queer fellow and a jolly fellow is the grasshopper. Up the mountains he comes on excursions, how high I don’t know, but at least as far and high as Yosemite tourists.

The truth is of course is that there is no journey. We are arriving and departing all at the same time.

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

All truths are easy to understand once they are discovered; the point is to discover them.

America had often been discovered before Columbus, but it had always been hushed up.

One of the things that we’re trying to do with Creative Labs and all our experiences is explore things that aren’t all tied to Facebook identity. Some things will be, but not everything will have to be, because there are some sets of experiences that are just better with other identities.

I have wanted to fly into space for many years, but never imagined it would really be feasible.

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

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.

Climb the mountains and get their good tidings.

Children astound me with their inquisitive minds. The world is wide and mysterious to them, and as they piece together the puzzle of life, they ask ‚Why?‘ ceaselessly.

My son likes to go see mines and electric plants, or the Large Hadron Collider, and we’ve had a chance to see a lot of interesting stuff.

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

In my case Pilgrim’s Progress consisted in my having to climb down a thousand ladders until I could reach out my hand to the little clod of earth that I am.

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

One never reaches home, but wherever friendly paths intersect the whole world looks like home for a time.

It takes a wise man to discover a wise man.

Globalization has made copper and other minerals more valuable, and Ghana and Kenya have recently discovered mineral resources.

Going to Southeast Asia for the first time and tasting that spectrum of flavors – that certainly changed my whole palate, the kind of foods I crave. A lot of the dishes I used to love became boring to me.

There is no easy walk to freedom anywhere, and many of us will have to pass through the valley of the shadow of death again and again before we reach the mountaintop of our desires.

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.

To the well-organized mind, death is but the next great adventure.

In school, I could hear the leaves rustle and go on a journey.

I’m fascinated by musicians who don’t completely understand their territory; that’s when you do your best work.

It’s useful to go out of this world and see it from the perspective of another one.

The traveller has reached the end of the journey!

The wide world is all about you: you can fence yourselves in, but you cannot forever fence it out.

I’m not the sort of person who gives up on things. The first time we crossed the Atlantic in the balloon, it crashed, and we went on and did the Pacific. First time we crossed the Atlantic in a boat, it sank, and we went on and got the record. So, generally speaking, we will pick ourselves up, brush ourselves down, and carry on.

If I’m in Rome for only 48 hours, I would consider it a sin against God to not eat cacio e pepe, the most uniquely Roman of pastas, in some crummy little joint where Romans eat. I’d much rather do that than go to the Vatican. That’s Rome to me.

We are often raised as dependents then given over to teachers. It’s experience and exploration that can transform us and lead to mastery.

There is no subject so old that something new cannot be said about it.

When I’m home, I spend Sunday with my husband. If we’re not cooking, we travel around in our camper, stop at fast-food restaurants, and picnic. We love that stuff that will harden your arteries in a hurry.

When we understand string theory, we will know how the universe began. It won’t have much effect on how we live, but it is important to understand where we come from and what we can expect to find as we explore.

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.

One of the best ways to see tree flowers is to climb one of the tallest trees and to get into close, tingling touch with them, and then look broad.

Facts which at first seem improbable will, even on scant explanation, drop the cloak which has hidden them and stand forth in naked and simple beauty.

Science sent the Hubble telescope out into space, so it could capture light and the absence thereof, from the very beginning of time. And the telescope really did that. So now we know that there was once absolutely nothing, such a perfect nothing that there wasn’t even nothing or once.

Man approaches the unattainable truth through a succession of errors.

When exploring London, you will come across lots of excitement by chance, so try to take everything in rather than just rushing around to all of the major tourist haunts.

I’ve been to Disneyland, like, 10 times. I’m getting really tired of Disneyland.

Men love to wonder, and that is the seed of science.

I’m not a parenting expert. In fact, I’m not sure that I even believe in the idea of ‚parenting experts.‘ I’m an engaged, imperfect parent and a passionate researcher. I’m an experienced mapmaker and a stumbling traveler. Like many of you, parenting is by far my boldest and most daring adventure.

A journey is a person in itself; no two are alike. And all plans, safeguards, policing, and coercion are fruitless. We find that after years of struggle that we do not take a trip; a trip takes us.

I’m not someone who sits at home and doesn’t like to go out, doesn’t like to watch movies. I like to live my life.

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