A
man on foot, on horseback or on a bicycle will see more, feel more,
enjoy more in one mile than the motorized tourists can in a hundred
miles. - Edward
Abbey
A
man who leaves home to mend himself and others is a philosopher; but
he who goes from country to country, guided by the blind impulse of
curiosity, is a vagabond. - Oliver
Goldsmith
A traveller without observation is a bird without wings. - Moslih Eddin Saadi
A good traveller has no fixed plans, and is not intent on arriving. - Lao-Tzu
The
traveller, however virginal and enthusiastic, does not enjoy an
unbroken ecstasy. He has periods of gloom, periods when he asks
himself the object of all these exertions, and puts the question
whether or not he is really experiencing pleasure. At such times he
suspects that he is not seeing the right things, that the
characteristics, the right aspects of these strange scenes are
escaping him. He looks forward dully to the days of his holiday yet
to pass, and wonders how he will dispose of them. He is disgusted
because his money is not more, his command of the language so slight,
and his capacity for enjoyment so limited. - Arnold
Bennett
The traveller sees what he sees, the tourist sees what he has come to see. - Gilbert K. Chesterton
The traveller sees what he sees, the tourist sees what he has come to see. - Gilbert K. Chesterton
The traveller was active; he went strenuously in search of people,
of adventure, of experience. The tourist is passive; he expects interesting
things to happen to him. He goes "sight-seeing." - Daniel J.
Boorstin
The world is the traveler's inn. - Afghan Proverb
The world is the traveler's inn. - Afghan Proverb
There are no foreign lands. It is the traveller only who is foreign. - Robert Louis Stevenson
Tourists don’t know where they’ve
been, travellers don’t know where they’re going. - Paul Theroux
We are all travellers in the
wilderness of this world, and the best we can find in our travels is an honest
friend. - Robert Louis Stevenson
