Here are some travel quotes that I found pretty interesting about travel.  They are definitely useful for those of you who want to travel but don’t quite have the confidence yet.  I say be like Nike and “Just Do It”!

“It was then that the idea of visiting Lhasa really became implanted in my mind. Before the frontier post to which I had been escorted I took an oath that in spite of all obstacles I would reach Lhasa and show what the will of a woman could achieve. But I did not think only of avenging my own defeats. I wanted the right to exhort others to pull down the barriers which surround, in the center of Asia, a vast area extending approximately 79 to 99 degrees longitude.”

Alexandra David-Neel, France, My Journey to Lhasa, 1927

“Few places in this world are more dangerous than home. Fear not, therefore, to try the mountain passes. They will kill care, save you from deadly apathy, set you free, and call forth every faculty into vigorous, enthusiastic action.”

John Muir, USA and Scotland, The Mountains of California, 1894

“Man must have just enough faith in himself to have adventures, and just enough doubt to enjoy them.”

G.K. Chesterton, England
