Look at the Bethlehem birth. A king ordered a census. Joseph was forced to travel. Mary, as round as a ladybug, bounced on a donkey's back. The hotel was full. The hour was late. The event was one big hassle. Yet, out of the hassle, hope was born. It still is.

We don't spend 10 hours lost in the Louvre because we like it, and the view from the top of Machu Picchu probably doesn't make up for the hassle of lost luggage. (More often than not, I need a holiday after my holiday.) We travel because we need to, because distance and difference are the secret tonic of creativity. When we get home, home is still the same. But something in our mind has been changed, and that changes everything.

I think it's really difficult for women to be involved with sportsmen that travel, or men to be involved with men or women, whoever it may be.

The overwhelming majority of NFL owners are white, and when they do choose to get involved in politics, they usually champion conservative causes.

Jemele Hill

He didn’t really like travel, of course. He liked the idea of travel, and the memory of travel, but not travel itself.

Julian Barnes

Looking back at it now, it's almost overwhelming, the amount of work that went into writing 'Shine', and to come up with the ideas that we're doing now.
