Quotes and Aphorisms 16.06.2018
Dear readers, continuing the soulful summer themes, today I would like to talk about travel. Each person puts his own meaning in this word. For some, travel is a wonderful opportunity to change the usual picture, get out of the comfort zone, try something unknown, maybe even extreme. And someone will prefer a comfortable philosophical journey, with a leisurely survey of sights.
But one thing unites all these people: any journey is a mass of positive emotions, bright colors, it is a rest of the soul and liberation from the framework of routine everyday life... This is precisely what is said so beautifully and accurately in quotes and aphorisms about travel.
How travel changes people
Chinese folk wisdom states that no one returns from a trip the way it was before. And I absolutely agree with that. After all, getting into a world different from everyday life, we ourselves change. Everything is new and unusual around us, and we ourselves can throw off all the burden of everyday life along with boring office and city clothes. How wonderful it is in quotes and aphorisms about travel!
"There is something magical about it: you leave as one person and return completely different."
Kate Douglas Wiggen
“The true destination of your trip is not a place on the map, but a New Look for life".
Henry Miller
“When traveling, do not concentrate on yourself, listen carefully to those around you and look around with curiosity. As long as a person feels that the most important and significant phenomenon in the world is his person, he can never truly feel the world around him. Like a blinkered horse, he sees nothing in him but himself. "
Carlos Castaneda
Travel leaves you speechless and then turns you into a better storyteller.

“First, we embark on travels to lose ourselves, and then we go all the way, and find ourselves. We go on trips to open our eyes and hearts, to learn something new, something that is not printed in newspapers and textbooks. We travel to bring that little into the world, but what we are capable of, what our knowledge allows us to do. And we travel to slow down time and fall in love like youth. "
Pico Iyer
“Adventure is the journey. The real adventure is being undertaken by self-determined, purposeful people. And as a rule, this is always risky. Sometimes you have to "eat straight from the hands of fate." Only after walking a sufficient distance, you will meet real gratuitous kindness and boundless cruelty and realize that you are capable of both. All this will radically change you, and the world will cease to be black and white for you. "
Mark Jenkins
"Travel, as the greatest science and serious science, helps us to rediscover ourselves."
Albert Camus
“When a person wanders, he, without noticing it, experiences a second birth. Every now and then he finds himself in new situations for himself, his days are debts, a language unknown to him often sounds around. He is like a baby that has just left its mother's womb. And he pays much more attention to what surrounds him, because it depends on this whether he will survive or not. He becomes more accessible to people, because they can come to his aid in difficult times. And he perceives the fleeting grace of the gods with glee and will remember it until the end of his days. And at the same time, since everything is new to him, he notices only beauty and is happy because he lives. "
Paulo Coelho
Life is motion
We are all familiar with the old saying that movement is life. This applies to everything - to work, to the worldview, but most of all to travel. After all, travel is movement, movement forward. Lie watching the flow of life? No, it's not for me! Getting new impressions and emotions, getting to know new places - that's what a real full life is! It is best said about this in quotes and aphorisms about travel and life.
“I am not traveling in order to come somewhere, but in order to go. The main thing is movement. "
Robert Louis Stevenson

About dreams and travel

As it is rightly said about this in quotes and aphorisms about travel and dreams.

Dutch proverb
Travel is an investment in yourself
I really love to learn something new. And where is it better to do it, if not while traveling? Reading about mountains and climbing a mountain yourself at least once are completely different things. While traveling, you meet new people, get acquainted with new cultures and customs. Of course, this broadens our horizons, and in an easy and natural way. Aphorisms and quotes about travel only confirm this.
“You shouldn't call someone brave who has never walked hundreds of kilometers. If you want to understand who you really are, go and go until there are no people around who know you by name. Travel is a great equalizer, a great teacher, bitter as medicine, and hard as a mirror. "
"A long journey will allow you to learn more about yourself than a hundred years of calm contemplation."
Patrick Rothfuss

Paulo Coelho
“Traveling helps to understand the beauty of space and the pricelessness of time. They increase horizons and reduce the level of denseness. "
Georgy Alexandrov
“Wandering is the best thing in the world. When you wander, you grow rapidly, and everything that you saw is deposited even on your appearance. I recognize people who have traveled a lot from a thousand. Wanderings cleanse, intertwine meetings, centuries, books and love. They make us related to the sky. If we have received yet unproven happiness to be born, then we must at least see the earth. "
Konstantin Paustovsky
About tourists and travelers
They say that there are travelers and there are tourists. The differences between them are not only in the duration of the trip and the schedule of the route. Travelers do not make plans; they are spontaneous in their quest for novelty. The tourist's time is limited by the schedule, which was compiled by the guide and travel agency. But it is in our power to bring an element of adventure even to an ordinary beach holiday! One has only to deviate a little from the trodden tourist routes, wander into the old narrow streets of cities - and we will feel like real discoverers. How aptly said about it in quotes and aphorisms about travel and travelers!
“A tourist, as soon as he arrives somewhere, immediately begins to want to go back. And the traveler ... He may not return ... "
Paul Bowles
"The most beautiful thing that can happen to a traveler is to stumble upon something he was not going to."
Lawrence Block
"The traveler sees what he sees, the tourist sees what he has come to see."

Andrew Zimmerman
"I am no longer the person who looked at the shining moon on the other side of the planet."
Marie Anne Radmacher
“For a person who has never traveled, any new place, somewhat different from his native land, looks very tempting. Apart from love, travel brings us the most joy and consolation. For some reason, everything new seems to us very important, and the mind, in essence, only reflecting the perception of our feelings, gives way to the influx of impressions. On the way, you can forget your beloved, dispel grief, drive away the ghost of death from yourself. The simple expression "I'm leaving" is the whole world not finding a way out of feelings ".
Theodore Dreiser
"Every journey has its own secret purpose, which the traveler himself has no idea about."
Martin Buber
Being a guest is good, but being at home is better
Traveling is always great! The mood rises already at the moment of pondering and thinking about where to go, and the adventure begins already at the stage of collecting luggage. It is also a way to get a dose of inspiration for doing what you love after returning from vacation. It seems to me that returning home with new emotions and impressions is another charm of travel. This is what the aphorisms and quotes about travel and the return home are about.

Statuses about home
And if between two close people it comes to the point that they must necessarily talk about something, then, no matter how much they talk, they will never agree to anything. It is good to speak when there is happiness behind the words, when words flow freely and easily. And when a person is unhappy, can such false, unreliable things like words help him? They only make it harder. ("Return")
Does this darkness have a name? This cruelty, this hatred, how did she find us? Did she sneak into our lives, or did we find and accept her ourselves? What happened to us? We send our children out into the world as if to war, hoping for their return, but knowing that some will die along the way. When did we go astray? We are enveloped in shadows and swallowed up by darkness Does this darkness have a name? Is that your name?
We will die, and that makes us lucky. Most people will never die because they will never be born. The number of potential people who could be here, in my place, but never actually see daylight, is much greater than the grains of sand in the Sahara. Of course, in the ranks of the unborn ghosts are poets greater than Keats, scientists greater than Newton. We know this because the multitude of people allowed by our DNA is incomparably larger than the multitude of real people. And from the jaws of these scanty chances of birth, the mediocre you and I burst out. We are a privileged bunch of people who, against all odds, have won the birth lottery. How dare we complain about our imminent return to the state from which the overwhelming majority was never born.
There are times when the pain is so intense that it is impossible to breathe. Nature has come up with a cunning mechanism and has repeatedly tested it. You choke, instinctively try to cope with the suffocation and forget about the pain for a moment. Then you are afraid of the return of suffocation and thanks to this you can survive the grief. There, near the grave, I could not breathe. There it happened to me for the first time.
Tom woke up Monday morning and felt very unhappy. He always felt unhappy on Monday morning, since that day began new week long torment at school. He even wanted then that there would be no Sundays in life at all, since after a short freedom, returning to prison is even more difficult.
