Travel, instead of broadening the mind, often merely lengthens the conversation.

Extensive traveling induces a feeling of encapsulation, and travel, so broadening at first, contracts the mind.

Paul Theroux

Often in history we see that religion, which was meant to raise us and make us better and nobler, has made people behave like beasts. Instead of bringing enlightenment of them, it has often tried to keep them in the dark; instead of broadening their minds, it has frequently made them narrow-minded and intolerant of others.

Jawaharlal Nehru

Being front and center in conversations about racism or sexism is a complicated privilege that is often hard to see.

Kimberle Williams Crenshaw

Bruce Chatwin

My normal life is I love to travel, and I travel as often as I can. I don't stay in one place too long. But I'm an avid reader, I guess you could say: I'm a bit of a bookworm.

Neil Peart

Frame your mind to mirth and merriment which bars a thousand harms and lengthens life.

William Shakespeare

Direct your mind where you want it to travel instead of always going for the ride.

Kris Carr

Travel is an exercise partly in broadening yourself and partly in defining your own limits.

Andrew Solomon

What began in deadly competition has helped us to see that global cooperation is the essential precondition for our survival. Travel is broadening. It's time to hit the road again.

Carl Sagan

If you travel too often, you actually come face-to-face with what you're trying to escape. I feel like when I travel alone, sometimes it's like being locked in a hotel room with my own worst enemy.

Simon Van Booy

All too often too often we try to push, pull, outline and control our ideas instead of letting them grow organically. The creative process is a process of surrender, not control.Mystery is at the heart of creativity. That, and surprise.
