Travel changes you. As you move through this life and this world you change things slightly, you leave marks behind, however small. And in return, life - and travel - leaves marks on you.

- Anthony Bourdain

She couldn't help thinking that there was a little more to life somewhere else, after all it was a great big world with lots of places to run to.

- Tom Petty

A good traveler has no fixed plans and is not intent on arriving.

- Lao Tzu

The best education I have ever received was through travel.

- Lisa Ling

Traveling – it leaves you speechless, then turns you into a storyteller.

- Ibn Battuta

Travel teaches a person to face the unknown, to adapt to new situations, and to understand the diversity of humanity. It is a profound form of education.

- Tenzin Gyatso

The greatest remedy for the ills of the world is the discovery of the world.

- Anonymous

Live your life by a compass not a clock.

- Stephen Covey

Travel is still the most intense mode of learning.

- Kevin Kelly

In matters of healing the body or the mind, vacation is a true genius!

- Mehmet Murat Ildan

Jobs fill your pocket, but adventures fill your soul.

Investment in travel is an investment in yourself.

- Matthew Karsten

The purpose of life is to live it, to reach out eagerly and without fear for newer and richer experience.

- Eleanor Roosevelt

Travel is fatal to prejudice, bigotry, and narrow-mindedness, and many of our people need it sorely on these accounts. Broad, wholesome, charitable views of men and things cannot be acquired by vegetating in one little corner of the earth all one's lifetime.

- Mark Twain

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

- Marcel Proust

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

- Aldous Huxley

Travel far enough, you meet yourself.

- David Mitchell

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

- Martin Buber

Travel is not a reward for working, it's education for living.

- Anthony Bourdain

I am not the same, having seen the moon shine on the other side of the world.

- Mary Anne Radmacher

Travel is more than the seeing of sights; it is a change that goes on, deep and permanent, in the ideas of living.

- Miriam Beard

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

- Saint Augustine
