Sometimes the road less traveled is less traveled for a reason.

If I see a mountain, I just pick up and hike it.

Not all those who wander are lost.

I need more sex, OK? Before I die I wanna taste everyone in the world.

I didn’t want to be a fashion designer, and for a good half of my career I didn’t like it. I always wanted to do other things.

The man who goes alone can start today; but he who travels with another must wait till that other is ready.

The woods are lovely, dark and deep. But I have promises to keep, and miles to go before I sleep.

He who would learn to fly one day must first learn to stand and walk and run and climb and dance; one cannot fly into flying.

No pessimist ever discovered the secret of the stars, or sailed to an uncharted land, or opened a new doorway for the human spirit.

I’m a wandering gypsy.

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.

I’ve grown accustomed to hotels and drastic climate change.

I don’t know where I’m going from here, but I promise it won’t be boring.

I’m not saying that people should stop flying. I’m just saying it needs to be easier to be climate neutral.

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.

Never go on trips with anyone you do not love.

Peace is not merely a distant goal that we seek, but a means by which we arrive at that goal.

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.

I have always loved blizzards, if only because of the driving experience – which is definitely an acquired taste.

We travel often to Asia, Africa, Europe, where they were born.

Adventure is worthwhile in itself.

I’ll stay in Memphis.

Nine times out of ten, in the arts as in life, there is actually no truth to be discovered; there is only error to be exposed.

When you dance, your purpose is not to get to a certain place on the floor. It’s to enjoy each step along the way.

There are trees of a thousand sorts, and all have their several fruits; and I feel the most unhappy man in the world not to know them, for I am well assured that they are all valuable. I bring home specimens of them, and also of the land.

There is nothing better than getting shot at and missed. It’s really great.

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

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

Life is like a wheel. Sooner or later, it always come around to where you started again.

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.

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.

Stories surge up out of nowhere, and if they feel compelling, you follow them. You let them unfold inside you and see where they are going to lead.

When you go to the mountains, you see them and you admire them. In a sense, they give you a challenge, and you try to express that challenge by climbing them.

The pursuit of science leads only to the insoluble.

Man, I really like Vegas.

All I really had was a suitcase and my drums. So I took them up to Seattle and hoped it would work.

Did you ever notice that the first piece of luggage on the carousel never belongs to anyone?

I’ve never been to New Zealand before. But one of my role models, Xena, the warrior princess, comes from there.

Becoming a writer is not a ‚career decision‘ like becoming a doctor or a policeman. You don’t choose it so much as get chosen, and once you accept the fact that you’re not fit for anything else, you have to be prepared to walk a long, hard road for the rest of your days.

Marriage is an adventure, like going to war.

I love trying new things.

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

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.

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

I was gutted to leave my boyfriend at home when I started my tour, but taking my pillow was like taking a little bit of him with me.

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 aliens visit us, the outcome would be much as when Columbus landed in America, which didn’t turn out well for the Native Americans.

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

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

Death is just life’s next big adventure.

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.

Every time I come to Europe, I’m just as excited as I was my very first time, which was many, many years ago. I love that part of the world, and I especially love the fans.

One of the things you’re doing when you make art, apart from entertaining yourself and other people, is trying to see what ways of working feel good, what feels right.

As soon as I arrived in the Indies, in the first island which I found, I took some of the natives by force, in order that they might learn and might give me information of whatever there is in these parts. And so it was that they soon understood us, and we them, either by speech or by signs, and they have been very serviceable.

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

Love can consign us to hell or to paradise, but it always takes us somewhere.

Life’s a bit like mountaineering – never look down.

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.

To recruit staff, I traveled all over the country talking with people who had been working on one or another aspect of the atomic-energy enterprise and people in radar work, for example, and underwater sound, telling them about the job, the place that we are going to, and enlisting their enthusiasm.

Stuff your eyes with wonder, live as if you’d drop dead in ten seconds. See the world. It’s more fantastic than any dream made or paid for in factories.

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.
