Un Voyage


A collection of some of my favorite quotes, pertaining to one of my favorite activities:

"The world is a book, and those who do not travel read only a page." - St. Augustine

"Once you have traveled, the voyage never ends, but is played out over and over again in the quietest chambers. The mind can never break off from the journey." - Pat Conroy

"A ship in port is safe, but that is not what ships are built for." - Grace Murray Hopper

" For my part, I travel not to go anywhere, but to go. I travel for travel's sake. The great affair is to move." - Robert Louis Stevenson

“Travel does what good novelists also do to the life of everyday, placing it like a picture in a frame or a gem in its setting, so that the intrinsic qualities are made more clear. Travel does this with the very stuff that everyday life is made of, giving to it the sharp contour and meaning of art.” – Freya Stark
