François de La Rochefoucauld
“276.—Absence extinguishes small passions and increases great ones, as the wind will blow out a candle, and blow in a fire.”
François de La Rochefoucauld, Reflections; or Sentences and Moral Maxims

Jack Kerouac
“Live, travel, adventure, bless, and don't be sorry.”
Jack Kerouac

Terry Pratchett
“Why do you go away? So that you can come back. So that you can see the place you came from with new eyes and extra colors. And the people there see you differently, too. Coming back to where you started is not the same as never leaving.”
Terry Pratchett, A Hat Full of Sky

Marcel Proust
“The real voyage of discovery consists not in seeking new landscapes, but in having new eyes.”
Marcel Proust

Walt Whitman
“Not I, nor anyone else can travel that road for you.
You must travel it by yourself.
It is not far. It is within reach.
Perhaps you have been on it since you were born, and did not know.
Perhaps it is everywhere - on water and land.”
Walt Whitman, Leaves of Grass
