Because in the end, you won't remember the time you spent working in the office or mowing your lawn.Our battered suitcases were piled on the sidewalk again; we had longer ways to go. But no matter, the road is life.Nothing behind me, everything ahead of me, as is ever so on the road.People don't take trips, trips take people.A journey is like marriage. The certain way to be wrong is to think you control it.We find after years of struggle that we do not take a trip; a trip takes us.The world is a country which nobody ever yet knew by description; one must travel through it one's self to be acquainted with it.Travel and change of place impart new vigour to the mind.Every day is a journey, and the journey itself is home.Do not seek to follow in the footsteps of the wise; seek what they sought.The months and days are the travellers of eternity. The years that come and go are also voyagers.Travel brings power and love back into your life.Don't be satisfied with stories, how things have gone with others. Unfold your own myth.As you start to walk on the way, the way appears.There are no foreign lands. It is the traveller only who is foreign.Robert Louis Stevenson

To awaken quite alone in a strange town is one of the pleasantest sensations in the world.The beckoning counts, and not the clicking latch behind you.Solitude, I have discovered, is not a lack of company but a different kind of it.We shall not cease from exploration, and the end of all our exploring will be to arrive where we started and know the place for the first time.Only those who will risk going too far can possibly find out how far one can go.Ithaka gave you the marvellous journey. Without her you would not have set out.Keep Ithaka always in your mind. Arriving there is what you're destined for.Hope your road is a long one, full of adventure, full of discovery.A person susceptible to wanderlust is not so much addicted to movement as committed to transformation.The missed ferry. The stranger who handed over a key. The meal that ran until midnight. If something happened to you on the road and you still think about it, send it - a few sentences is plenty, and we do the tidying up.
