--Pam Brown--

--Herman Melville, Travelling--

He who returns from a journey is not the same as he who left.

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--

--Freya Stark--

Once you have travelled, 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--

Through travel I first became aware of the outside world; it was through travel that I found my own introspective way into becoming a part of it.
--Eudora Welty--

Travel is glamorous only in retrospect.
--Paul Theroux--
