Travel

"Does the road wind up-hill all the way? Yes, to the very end. Will the day's journey take the whole long day? From morn to night, my friend."

"Zählt der Pilger Meilen, Wenn er zum fernen Gnadenbilde wallt?"

"Nusquam est, qui ubique est."

"I think it was Jekyll who used to say that the further he went west, the more convinced he felt that the wise men came from the east."

"'Tis nothing when a fancied scene's in view To skip from Covent Garden to Peru."

"I pity the man who can travel from Dan to Beersheba and cry, "'Tis all barren!""

"When we have discovered a continent, or crossed a chain of mountains, it is only to find another ocean or another plain upon the further side…. O toiling hands of mortals! O wearied feet, travelling ye know not whither! Soon, soon, it seems to you, you must come forth on some conspicuous hilltop, and but a little way further, against the setting sun, descry the spires of El Dorado. Little do ye know your own blessedness; for to travel hopefully is a better thing than to arrive, and the true success is to labour."

"'Tis a mad world (my masters) and in sadnes I travail'd madly in these dayes of madnes."
