"one doesn't discover new lands without consenting to lose sight of the shore for a very long time."

-andre gide

i have this on the inside cover of my journal. and a few weeks ago when i was having one of those real rough travel days [new city, new culture, left great friends in the last town, no sleep the night before....] this quote perked me up and got me through.

Not all those who wander are lost. (don't know)

You have brains in your head.
You have feet in your shoes.
You can steer yourself in any direction you choose.
You're on your own.
And you know what you know.
You are the guy who'll decide where to go. (Dr. Suess)

Is that Tolkien, or am I being a fool? It rings a bell though...

My Aunt gave me one that is not necessarily travel related but can very well apply to it

No se quite que lo ha bailado

Which roughly translates to

"Good times can't be taken from you"

--Joey
