The Purpose of Travel
"There are no foreign lands. It is the traveler only who is foreign."
--Robert Louis Stevenson
"One's destination is never a place, but a new way of seeing things."
--Henry Miller.
"If you reject the food, ignore the customs, fear the religion and avoid the people, you might better stay at home."
--James Michener
" The traveler is active; he goes strenuously in search of people, of adventure, of experience. The tourist is passive; he expects interesting things to happen to him. He goes 'sight-seeing.'"
--Daniel J. Boorstin
"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
