More From Ella Maillart
- "Not only does travel give us a new system of reckoning, it also brings to the fore unknown aspects of our own self. Our consciousness being broadened and enriched, we shall judge ourselves more correctly."
- "One travels to run away from routine, that dreadful routine that kills all imagination and all our capacity for enthusiasm."
- "Certain travellers give the impression that they keep moving because only then do they feel fully alive."
