William Hazlitt

Leon Edel
As I look back over my life, before I had any real identity, I was a traveler. I grew up an Army brat, a runaway, an activist, and a musician. All my life I've been traveling.
Michelle Shocked
Every perfect traveler always creates the country where he travels.

Nicolaus Copernicus

Alan Dean Foster
Happy, happy Christmas, that can win us back to the delusions of our childhood days, recall to the old man the pleasures of his youth, and transport the traveler back to his own fireside and quiet home!

Franz Kafka
The traveler sees what he sees, the tourist sees what he has come to see.

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."
