"Christmas to a child is the first terrible proof that to travel hopefully is better than to arrive." ― Stephen Fry Topic(s): Travel More From Stephen Fry "It’s rather splendid to think of all those great men and women who appear to have presented symptoms that allow us to describe them as bipolar. Whether it’s Hemingway, Van Gogh… Robert Schumann has been mentioned… Virginia Woolf, Sylvia Plath… some of them with rather grim ends." "But happiness is no respecter of persons." "Taste every fruit of every tree in the garden at least once. It is an insult to creation not to experience it fully. Temperance is wickedness." More In Travel "Through travel I first became aware of the outside world; it was through travel that I found my own introspective way into becoming a part of it."― Eudora Welty "It’s important to travel and move and have a continual set of experiences so you’ve got more to feed back into your work. For me, it’s a natural thing."― Cate Blanchett "There is a pride, a self-love, in human minds that will seldom be kept so low as to make men and women humbler than they ought to be."― Samuel Richardson
