I love traveling all over the world; but it’s true: there’s nothing like home.
Dolly PartonDid you ever notice that the first piece of luggage on the carousel never belongs to anyone?
Erma BombeckBeing on tour is like being in limbo. It’s like going from nowhere to nowhere.
Bob DylanYou and I come by road or rail, but economists travel on infrastructure.
Margaret ThatcherTo start with, I love New York… It’s a little bit of the whole world… In New York, the whole world comes to you.
Billy GrahamI’m fascinated by musicians who don’t completely understand their territory; that’s when you do your best work.
Brian EnoI have visited Japan several times and have always been shown wonderful hospitality.
Stephen HawkingIf you cannot understand that there is something in man which responds to the challenge of this mountain and goes out to meet it, that the struggle is the struggle of life itself upward and forever upward, then you won’t see why we go.
Edmund HillaryI’ve been to those places where it’s ‚poor, pitiful me.‘
Dolly PartonUntil 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.
Hermann HesseI am quite serious when I say that I do not believe there are, on the whole earth besides, so many intensified bores as in these United States. No man can form an adequate idea of the real meaning of the word, without coming here.
Warren BuffettThe movement of search can only be from the known to the known, and all that the mind can do is to be aware that this movement will never uncover the unknown. Any movement on the part of the known is still within the field of the known.
Jiddu KrishnamurtiFor an occurrence to become an adventure, it is necessary and sufficient for one to recount it.
Jean-Paul SartreI think I mainly climb mountains because I get a great deal of enjoyment out of it. I never attempt to analyze these things too thoroughly, but I think that all mountaineers do get a great deal of satisfaction out of overcoming some challenge which they think is very difficult for them, or which perhaps may be a little dangerous.
Edmund HillaryMarriage is an adventure, like going to war.
Gilbert K. ChestertonI am the man who accompanied Jacqueline Kennedy to Paris, and I have enjoyed it.
John F. KennedyI 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.
Richard BransonWork aside, we come to New York for the possibility of interaction and inspiration.
David ByrneMy home is in Heaven. I’m just traveling through this world.
Billy GrahamThere is nothing better than getting shot at and missed. It’s really great.
Jim MattisIf I wished to do something, even if I couldn’t find anyone who wanted to make the effort with me, I would go out solo climbing. I did find solo climbing very challenging and a little frightening. You knew that you were completely on your own, and you had to overcome all the problems and possible dangers.
Edmund HillaryI 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.
Amy WinehouseThere 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.
Sunil ChhetriNo one remembers who climbed Mount Everest the second time.
Edmund HillaryI think one of my pursuits over the years is trying to answer the question of, ‚What else can you do with a voice other than stand in front of a microphone and sing?‘
Brian EnoI make good music for long journeys.
The WeekndA tramp, a gentleman, a poet, a dreamer, a lonely fellow, always hopeful of romance and adventure.
Charlie ChaplinI want to stand as close to the edge as I can without going over. Out on the edge you see all the kinds of things you can’t see from the center.
Kurt VonnegutThe penalty for getting mugged in an American city and losing your ID is that you can’t fly home.
Christopher HitchensI’m a Bangalore boy.
Sunil ChhetriI doubt anyone else would have travelled as extensively as I have to meet the citizens of the country.
Narendra ModiI found that part of it towards San Salvador extending from north to south five leagues, and the other side which we coasted along, ran from east to west more than ten leagues.
Christopher ColumbusWherever I go, as long as I get a hot vegetable dish, I am okay. If I am in Gujarat, I have Gujarati food. If it’s Shillong, it’s northeastern.
A. P. J. Abdul KalamWith the casino and the beds, our passengers will have at least two ways to get lucky on one of our flights.
Richard BransonI’m someone who likes plowing new ground, then walking away from it. I get bored easily. For me, the big thrill comes with the discovering.
Abraham MaslowI’ve never been to New Zealand before. But one of my role models, Xena, the warrior princess, comes from there.
Madeleine AlbrightI love Africa, and Ulusaba, our home in South Africa, is pretty special. It’s on a rocky hill overlooking the bush, and from your room, you can see lions stalking zebras by the waterhole.
Richard BransonVoyagers discover that the world can never be larger than the person that is in the world; but it is impossible to foresee this, it is impossible to be warned.
James BaldwinWhen you’re on the road and moving city to city, when someone isn’t there at the end of the night, you feel empty.
DrakeWhat’s important in Libya is, first of all, it has a good deal of oil. A lot of the country is unexplored; there may be a lot more. And it’s very high-quality oil, so very valuable.
Noam ChomskyTrees go wandering forth in all directions with every wind, going and coming like ourselves, traveling with us around the sun two million miles a day, and through space heaven knows how fast and far!
John MuirScience has explained nothing; the more we know the more fantastic the world becomes and the profounder the surrounding darkness.
Aldous HuxleyTo travel is to discover that everyone is wrong about other countries.
Aldous HuxleyAgainst my will, in the course of my travels, the belief that everything worth knowing was known at Cambridge gradually wore off. In this respect my travels were very useful to me.
Bertrand RussellIf you do not expect the unexpected you will not find it, for it is not to be reached by search or trail.
HeraclitusBuy the ticket, take the ride.
Hunter S. ThompsonI’m not afraid to look like a big, hairy, smelly, foreign devil in Tokyo, though I do my best not to, I really do.
Anthony BourdainThe balloons only have one life and the only way of finding out whether they work is to attempt to fly around the world.
Richard BransonI 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.
Arnold SchwarzeneggerI’ve been everywhere in the world, seen everything, had everything a man can have.
Muhammad AliSometimes the road less traveled is less traveled for a reason.
Jerry SeinfeldActing helped me as I was growing up. It helped me learn about myself, helped me travel, helped me understand life, express myself, all those wonderful things. So I’m very, very grateful; it’s a fun job. It’s a luxury.
Angelina JolieI’ve been to Uganda and to North Korea and to Eritrea, countless horror spots around the world.
Christopher HitchensStories 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.
Paul AusterThat’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.
Lando NorrisTo be admitted to Nature’s hearth costs nothing. None is excluded, but excludes himself. You have only to push aside the curtain.
Henry David ThoreauI love trying new things.
The WeekndAs 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.
Christopher ColumbusOnly by going alone in silence, without baggage, can one truly get into the heart of the wilderness. All other travel is mere dust and hotels and baggage and chatter.
John MuirThe notion that before you even set out to go to Thailand, you say, ‚I’m not interested,‘ or you’re unwilling to try things that people take so personally and are so proud of and so generous with, I don’t understand that, and I think it’s rude. You’re at Grandma’s house, you eat what Grandma serves you.
Anthony Bourdain
