Writing, like life itself, is a voyage of discovery.

Henry Miller

Writing to me is a voyage, an odyssey, a discovery, because I'm never certain of precisely what I will find.

Gabriel Fielding

Le veritable voyage de decouverte ne consiste pas a chercher de nouveaux paysages, mais a avoir de nouveaux yeux. (The real voyage of discovery consists not in seeking new landscapes but in having new eyes.)

Marcel Proust

To realize that one is really alone, gives new courage to the person. Discovery of truth is a journey, a voyage on which one has to launch alone. You cannot impose the inquiry of truth in the heart of your partner. You cannot compel your partner to have the same intensity or the same depth of inquiry. So irrespective of where you are, the voyage has to be launched upon alone. Taking the inward journey and arriving at silence, is a voyage in solitude.

Vimala Thakar

The only real voyage of discovery consists not in seeking new landscapes but in having new eyes. The glory of great men should always be measured by the means they have used to acpuire it.

Francois de La Rochefoucauld

As you continue writing and rewriting, you begin to see possibilities you hadn't seen before. Writing a poem is always a process of discovery.

Robert Hayden

I define coaching as launching the salesperson on a voyage of discovery by asking questions.

Chris Lytle

Writing, like life itself, is a voyage of discovery. The adventure is a metaphysical one: it is a way of approaching life indirectly, of acquiring a total rather than a partial view of the universe. The writer lives between the upper and lower worlds: he takes the path in order eventually to become the path himself.

Henry Miller

I think of myself as an explorer who has spent his life on a long voyage of discovery.

Paul Strand

Every day is not just another assignment; it is a small, but contained voyage of discovery.

David Doubilet

If I knew what the photograph was going to look like, I wouldn't bother taking it. It's the voyage of discovery that fascinates me.

Lois Greenfield

The only true voyage of discovery, . . . would be not to visit strange lands but to possess other eyes.

Marcel Proust

When a man talks with absolute sincerity and freedom he goes on a voyage of discovery. The whole company has shares in the enterprise.

John Jay Chapman

It means that we should celebrate today's failure because it is a clear sign that our voyage of discovery is not yet over.

Jacqueline Kelly

If there is one 'scientific' discovery I am proud of, it is the discovery of the habit of writing without publication in mind.

Edsger Dijkstra

This is what I like about life at sea. It’s one long voyage of discovery. Solid water! What will they think of next? Hopefully a pony who solves crimes.

Gideon Defoe
