It’s Quotable Sunday thanks to Toni at A Daily Dose of Toni. For those who aren’t familiar with Quotable Sunday, it’s the day we list a few of our favorite quotes. Since I’m just returning from a business trip, I decided to focus on travel. Here are a few of my favorite travel quotes:
No one realizes how beautiful it is to travel until he comes home and rests his head on his old, familiar pillow. ~Lin Yutang
When preparing to travel, lay out all your clothes and all your money. Then take half the clothes and twice the money. ~Susan Heller
Travel and change of place impart new vigor to the mind. ~Seneca
The traveler was active; he went 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
What you’ve done becomes the judge of what you’re going to do – especially in other people’s minds. When you’re traveling, you are what you are right there and then. People don’t have your past to hold against you. No yesterdays on the road. ~William Least
I have found out that there ain’t no surer way to find out whether you like people or hate them than to travel with them. ~Mark Twain
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 most important trip you may take in life is meeting people halfway. ~Henry Boye

I love to travel. Some day I know we will get to do more, but for now it is school & kids to keep us busy.
Hi Tonya,
I love traveling too. I was in Minneapolis this past week, nice airport and easy to get around. I travel alone alot for business, you will be fine. Just ask one of the airport employees if you have questions. Enjoy!

I love traveling!! Taking my first flight bloggy trip next weekend to Minneapolis. Kind of nervous going alone.
Have a great Sunday!
Great quotes. I have found this one to be very true: "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
Happy SUnday!
Very nice travel quotes! I really like that last one by Henry Boye!
Happy Sunday!
The Mark Twain quote is certainly true-you can't be trapped in a car/train/bus/etc with a person and not find out if you love the or hate them!
My husband and I have not been traveling in the last five years. I am somewhat house bound but hope to get back out there.
Thank you for stopping by my blog today.
I liked the last quote a lot.The mot important trip you take in life is meeting people halfway.
Oh I really enjoyed you list. I especially like the William Least, the first Mark Twain, and Henry Boyle! Thanks.
Oh I totally agree with #1. I love traveling and getting away but there truely is no place like home and being back in your own comfy bed :). I hope you have a wonderful Sunday and thank you so much for stopping by my blog.
We have not done much traveling over the past years, now that my daughter is older (12) I hope that we can take more trips. She's ready to go, but in a day she usually ready to come back to the familiar!
I like this one!
