Bravery is the capacity to perform properly even when scared half to death.

A man on foot, on horseback or on a bicycle will see more, feel more, enjoy more in one mile than the motorized tourists can in a hundred miles.

I haven’t been everywhere, but it’s on my list.

An adventure is only an inconvenience rightly considered. An inconvenience is only an adventure wrongly considered.

I am not afraid of storms, for I am learning to sail my ship.

The bad news is time flies. The good news is you’re the pilot.

The world is a book and those who do not travel read only one page.

A journey is like marriage. The certain way to be wrong is to think you control it.

For my part, I travel not to go anywhere, but to go. I travel for travel’s sake. The great affair is to move.

To awaken quite alone in a strange town is one of the pleasantest sensations in the world.

You got to be careful if you don’t know where you’re going, because you might not get there.

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

If you’re not living on the edge, you’re taking up too much space.

Art flourishes where there is a sense of adventure.

Tourists don’t know where they’ve been, travelers don’t know where they’re going.

To travel is to discover that everyone is wrong about other countries.

Do not follow where the path may lead. Go instead where there is no path and leave a trail.

Life is adventure, not predicament.

The journey not the arrival matters.

A journey is best measured in friends, rather than miles.

If you come to a fork in the road, take it.

Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that 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.

Every exit is an entry somewhere else.

The world is a book and those who do not travel read only a page.

A journey of a thousand miles begins with a cash advance.

People don’t take trips. Trips take people.

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

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

Climbing K2 or floating the Grand Canyon in an inner tube; there are some things one would rather have done than do.

There’s no such thing as bad weather, only inappropriate clothing

You cannot discover new oceans unless you have the courage to lose sight of the shore.

The bold adventurer succeeds the best.

Only those who will risk going too far can possibly find out how far one can go.

The human spirit is stronger than anything that can happen to it.

Who dares nothing, need hope for nothing.

The best journeys in life are those that answer questions you never thought to ask.

The one who follows the crowd will usually get no further than the crowd. The one who walks alone, is likely to find himself in places no one has ever been.

It is amazing what you can accomplish if you do not care who gets the credit.

When you come to the end of your rope, tie a knot and hang on.

We have become the charnel house of the Western World.

I'm like a crockpot on low heat. My mind constantly comes up with ideas, but I abandon a lot of them after a week or two. It's the ones that keep coming to me, that keep picking up flavors, that haunt me, those are the ones that wind up getting written.

You are safe inside your mind. No one can reach you there.

When poor people get involved in a long conflict, such as a strike or a civil rights drive, and the pressure increases each day, there is a deep need for spiritual advice. Without it, we see families crumble, leadership weaken, and hard workers grow tired.

I have a lot of skepticism about marriage and monogamy.

The first thing I look at is, 'Is the entrepreneur going after really big problems, to the extent that it feels scary when they talk about it?' You wonder if the idea is possible. I have seen that a lot of times, people go after small problems, and that's a sign that they are not confident.

There were days when you peered into yourself, into the secret places of your heart, and what you saw there made you faint with horror. And then, next day, you didn't know what to make of it,you couldn't interpret the horror you had glimpsed the day before. Yes, you know what evil costs.

I style my hair so frequently that I need a really good conditioner to keep it moisturized.

Nothing endures but personal qualities.
