I have been collecting quotes reflecting my travels for over a year now, head over to Volume I and Volume II to see previous ones.
I have also greatly enjoyed creating my own quotes, this third one on the subject of truth.
A castle of lies & deceit, surrounded by a moat of facts & integrity, rots away as truth seeps in.Ugo Domizioli
With this third set of quotes, I would like to share how I choose to travel.
I'm leaving on a jet plane, don't know when I'll be back again. John Denver
As a man grows older it is harder and harder to frighten him. Jean Paul Richter
The journey is the destination. Dan Eldon
Happy is entirely up to you and always has been.Janette Rallison
Not all those who wander are lost. J.R.R. Tolkien
If we take care of the moments, the years will take care of themselves. Maria Edgeworth
Though we travel the world over to find the beautiful, we must carry it with us or we find it not. Ralph Waldo Emerson
The real voyage of discovery consists not in seeking new landscapes, but in having new eyes. Marcel Proust
Often while traveling with a camera we arrive just as the sun slips over the horizon of a moment, too late to expose film, only time enough to expose our hearts. Minor White
When the traveller goes alone he gets acquainted with himself. Liberty Hyde Bailey
People travel to wonder at the height of mountains, at the huge waves of the sea, at the long courses of rivers, at the vast compass of the ocean, at the circular motion of the stars; and they pass by themselves without wondering. Saint Augustine
A man is getting old when he walks around a puddle instead of through it.R. C. Ferguson
Don't be afraid of your fears. They're not there to scare you. They're there to let you know that something is worth it. C. JoyBell C.
Each morning when I open my eyes I say to myself: I, not events, have the power to make me happy or unhappy today. I can choose which it shall be. Yesterday is dead, tomorrow hasn't arrived yet. I have just one day, today, and I'm going to be happy in it.Groucho Marx
And the day came when the risk to remain tight in a bud was more painful than the risk it took to blossom.Anais Nin
My favourite from this third volume is very personal as it relates directly to my questions website:
It is not the answer that enlightens, but the question. Eugene Ionesco
I chose the photograph for this page because it is in line with my contrarian views. While walking in a public park in Thailand, I noticed that I was walking along a path in the opposite direction to an arrow. I felt odd that there was an arrow telling me which way I should walk in a public park. We all have different paths to follow in our lives, each being neither correct, nor incorrect. Other's may not understand, agree or even approve of what you are doing; that's for them to mull over and debate but none of your concern. The path chosen my well be a bumpy one with many obstacles along way, all the better for it will be a great teacher.
