Journeys. Even the word sounds as if it is has been drawn from some magic elixir
and distilled through the gossamer screen of the imagination.
PHYLLIS TAYLOR PIANKA
Hope is like a road in the country; there was never a road,
but when many people walk on it, the road comes into existence.
LIN YUTANG
The journey, not the arrival, matters.
T. S. ELIOT
What lies before us and what lies behind us are tiny compared to what lies within us
RALPH WALDO EMERSON
I soon realized that no journey carries one far unless, as it extends into the world around us,
it goes an equal distance into the world within.
LILLIAN SMITH
Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed
by the things you didn’t do than by the ones you did do.
So throw off the bowlines, sail away from the safe harbor.
Catch the trade winds in your sails.
Explore. Dream. Discover.
MARK TWAIN
One of the most beautiful gifts in the world is the gift of encouragement.
When someone encourages you, that person helps you over a threshold
you might otherwise never have crossed on your own.
JOHN O’DONOHUE
If you lose hope, somehow you lose the vitality that keeps life moving,
you lose that courage to be,
that quality that helps you go on in spite of it all.
And so today I still have a dream.
MARTIN LUTHER KING, JR.
One’s destination is never a place, but a new way of seeing things.
HENRY MILLER
When one door closes another door opens;
but we so often look so long and so regretfully upon the closed door,
that we do not see the ones which open for us.
ALEXANDER GRAHAM BELL
Most of the important things in the world have been accomplished
by people who have kept on trying
when there seemed to be no hope at all.
DALE CARNEGIE
The road that is built in hope is more pleasant to the traveler
than the road built in despair, even though they both lead to the same destination.
MARION ZIMMER BRADLEY
A journey of a thousand miles must begin with a single step.
LAO TZU
He who would travel happily must travel light.
ANTOINE DE SAINT-EXUPERY
What is traveling? Changing your place? By no means!
Traveling is changing your opinions and your prejudices.
ANOTOLE FRANCE
Traveling is not just seeing the new; it is also leaving behind.
Not just opening doors; also closing them behind you, never to return.
JAN MYRDAL
Most Holiday memories are mere snapshots – images we treasure,
but that fade with any passing year.
But the people that we meet – they become a part of us.
They live in us. They travel with us.
PAM BROWN
Sending a note of love from along the way, a flight attendant writes,
“When we’re apart,
you are present in my thoughts.
There are moments I pause and simply wish you were by my side”.
