  6. Defining the Journey Quotable Quotes

  7. Laurens van der Post • A voyage to a destination, wherever that may be, is also a voyage inside oneself; even as a cyclone carries along with it the centre in which it must ultimately come to rest. • It is always like that with journeys. One is as sad at the end as at the beginning; the reward lies in between.

  8. Proverb • If you want to know a man, make a solitary journey with him.

  9. Lawrence Durrell, from Bitter Lemons • Journeys, like artists, are born not made. A thousand differing circumstances contribute to them, few of them willed or determined by the will – whatever we may think. They flower spontaneously out of the demands of our natures – and the best of them lead not only outwards in space, but inwards as well.

  10. African Proverb • He who travels much doubts many things

  11. George Moore • A man travels the world over in search of what he needs, and returns home to find it.
