Travellers - Quites

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 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 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

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
