People travel to faraway places to watch, in fascination, the people they ignore at home

Travel makes one modest, you see what a tiny place you occupy in the world.

Travel is fatal to prejudice, bigotry, and narrow-mindedness.

One's destination is never a place, but always a new way of seeing things.

Not until we are lost do we begin to understand ourselves.

I have seen more than I remember, and remember more than I have seen.

Don't tell me how educated you are, tell me how much you travelled.

The journey not the arrival matters.

I never travel without my diary. One should always have something sensational to read in the train.

The real voyage of discovery consists not in seeing new landscapes, but in having new eyes.

Travel and change of place impart new vigour to the mind.

All journeys have secret destinations of which the traveller is unaware.

It was a million tiny little things that, when you added them all up, they meant we were supposed to be together… and I knew it.

There's no mystery to it. Nothing more complicated than learning lines and putting on a costume.

I set out very calculatedly to become known. The only thing I maybe miscalculated was how easy it would be.

I just wanted to say one more thing: I also think that when you go to play music, you're there to play music.

Translation means that a translator has picked one word above all the others: one winner, with all the finalists gone from the page forever. Translation always calls upon the translator to make a judgement call, and what the reader hears, then, is a judgement.

I want to congratulate all the men out there who are working diligently to be good fathers whether they are stepfathers, or biological fathers or just spiritual fathers.

Exoticism can give you an edge it makes people assume youre cleverer than you are and gives you the upper hand.

Who do you call a civilian in a guerilla war? I mean, it might be a farmer by day or a merchant, a housewife, and by night the housewife may be helping to make landmines and booby traps and who knows.

When people show me clothing that seems very, very feminine, it's hard for me to embrace that, because it just doesn't feel like me.

The ride last year went extremely well. We did have bad weather. It was cloudy and cool, but we also had a real good turnout.

How can you dare teach a man to read until you've taught him everything else first?

The corporation and the hedge funds have a hold on Hollywood, and they all want to make money on anything that signifies cinema.

The Jewish community is all about love and family, which is the most important thing in my life, too.

Motorcycle riding has been a passion of mine since my 20th birthday, and as a proud member of the American Motorcyclist Association and the Harley Owners Group, I can attest that responsible riding has many unique recreational benefits for millions of Americans.

Unfortunately, religion, like patriotism, is easy to misuse for political purposes.

When I got out of the Nazz, I had it in my mind that simply to be eclectic was an important aspect of making music. It was something that I derived from The Beatles.

I believe that everything happens for a reason. People change so that you can learn to let go things go wrong so that you appreciate them when theyre right you believe lies so you eventually learn to trust no one but yourself and sometimes good things fall apart so better things can fall together.

And when I perform on my own tour, I have to talk myself into going out on that stage every single night.

When I was elected Governor, we had an audacious agenda that naysayers said couldn't be enacted with a Democrat majority in the state legislature. However, we worked across party lines and enacted historic reforms. Working together, we cut taxes by more than $600 million.

No civilisation can claim to have a monopoly on universal values and no one can claim to be always faithful to his own values.

I believe happiness is a chemical imbalance - it's a silly thing to strife for. But satisfaction - if you seek satisfaction, you can succeed. Satisfaction is knowing that you're doing the best that you can do; you're living your life to the fullest.

I really have to keep an eye on myself, because sometimes I think I might say something important.

Thanks to the imagination, there’s no end to things in this world that can trigger anxiety.
