Vell Quotes

The towns and countryside that the traveller sees through a train window do not slow down the train, nor does the train affect them. Neither disturbs the other. This is how you should see the thoughts that pass through your mind when you meditate Picture Quote #1

We are learning that a standard of social ethics is not attained by travelling a sequestered byway, but by mixing on the thronged and common road where all must turn out for one another, and at least see the size of one another’s burdens Picture Quote #1

Absolute peace in our world is an unattainable goal. But it is one towards which we must continue to journey, our eyes fixed on it as a traveller in a desert fixes his eyes on the one guiding star that will lead him to salvation Picture Quote #1

If the whole world should agree to speak nothing but truth, what an abridgment it would make of speech! And what an unravelling there would be of the invisible webs which men, like so many spiders, now weave about each other! Picture Quote #1

Everything... has to be resolved through rhythms. You’re constantly massaging each form, trying to get it home, pushing further and further until these all coalesce into a marvellous kind of rhythm that reveals the life of the painting Picture Quote #1

Before exulatation had vanished, I felt as if I had been granted a marvellous privilege. Out of the inscrutable waters a beautiful fish had somehow leaped to show me fleetingly the life and spirit of his element Picture Quote #1

More lightly do his sorrows press upon a man, when to a friend or fellow traveller he tells his griefs Picture Quote #1

A woman who feels ugly can go to the best party and have a terrible time, but a woman who likes the way she looks can go to a funeral and have a marvellous time Picture Quote #1

Im always intrigued when you are travelling through a place and there is somebody who has lived there and done the same job for years Picture Quote #1

I find that every soul that has travelled on this highway of holiness for any length of time, has invariably cut loose from its old moorings Picture Quote #1

I hate myself on the screen. I want to die... my voice is either too high or too gravelly. I want to dive under the carpet... I’d love to be tall and willowy... I’m short Picture Quote #1

My inspiration is life. My family, my friends, travelling, books, music, love, food, fashion. What inspires you? Picture Quote #1

I think I am a travel junkie, and I have never enjoyed anything else in my life more than travelling and going to places Picture Quote #1

I’m travelling more than ever. I don’t have the answer as to why, but the demand seems to have grown as I’ve got older Picture Quote #1

I still recommend reading travel guides as an insight to a travellers perspective on fantasy worlds. Nearly all characters end up travelling at some point, and they have many of the same needs and concerns covered in travel guides Picture Quote #1

It is doubtful whether anyone who has travelled widely has found anywhere in the world regions more ugly than in the human face Picture Quote #1

Only those books come down which deserve to last. All the gilt edges, vellum and morocco, all the presentation copies to all the libraries will not preserve a book in circulation beyond its intrinsic date Picture Quote #1

Travelling, gentlemen, is medieval, today we have means of communication, not to speak of tomorrow and the day after, means of communication that bring the world into our homes, to travel from one place to another is atavistic Picture Quote #1

Travelling, I worry about luggage, prices, and strange food. At home, I am free to broaden my mind by thinking about the higher things Picture Quote #1

In the progress of politics, as in the common occurrences of life, we are not only apt to forget the ground we have travelled over, but frequently neglect to gather up experiences as we go Picture Quote #1

The first questions are always to be asked, and the wisest doctor is gravelled by the inquisitiveness of a child Picture Quote #1

We are like travellers using the cinders of a volcano to roast their eggs. Whilst we see that it always stands ready to clothe what we would say, we cannot avoid the question whether the characters are not significant of themselves Picture Quote #1

Old age is a disease from which there is no recovery but the old nun’s recent attack had certainly been brought on chiefly by the fatigue of so much travelling Picture Quote #1

The intellect is vagabond, and our system of education fosters restlessness. Our minds travel when our bodies are forced to stay at home. We imitate; and what is imitation but the travelling of the mind? Picture Quote #1

Instead of feeling a poverty when we encounter a great man, let us treat the new comer like a travelling geologist, who passes through our estate, and shows us good slate, or limestone, or anthracite, in our brush pasture Picture Quote #1

It is... marvellous... to have a period of apparent fanaticism. No obstacle can discourage you. The single vision of your quest obscures defeat and lifts you over mountainous difficulties Picture Quote #1

Life is a great and noble calling, not a mean and grovelling thing to be shuffled through as best as we can but a lofty and exalted destiny Picture Quote #1

There is no man more complete than the one who travelled a lot, who changed the shape of his thoughts and his life twenty times Picture Quote #1

I take around 60 trips a year for business so I can’t say that I enjoy the act of travelling itself. I wish I could be transported to my destination without having to go on the journey to get there Picture Quote #1

All experience is an arch wherethrough gleams that untravelled world whose margin fades for ever and for ever when I move Picture Quote #1
