  1. “Travel is fatal to prejudice, bigotry, and narrow mindedness., and many of our people need it sorely on these accounts.” ~ Mark Twain

    Great quotes Shilpa thank you ..

  2. My grandparents were superstitious and greatly discouraged any journey beginning on a Friday. Not really a quote, except that has always stuck in my mind.

  3. Some awesome quotes here. Agree with them. As James said, when you go somewhere you need to experience their culture. I find it a bit odd when people go to Japan and say they want idli and dosa.

    1. Hahaha.. I know what you mean. I was at Bali for work and the client company had arranged ALL meals at an Indian restaurant. It was a head-wall moment. 😐

  4. Nice quotes Shilpa, my favourite is Augustine Hippo and the other one is Mark Twain… twenty years from now you will be more disappointed with the things you didn’t do… I like to follow Dalai Lama’s advice too 🙂

  5. A man of ordinary talent will always be ordinary, whether he travels or not; but a man of superior talent will go to pieces if he remains forever in the same place -Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart.

  6. I love them all but this one is my favourite – Traveling – it leaves you speechless, then turns you into a storyteller. Great quotes.

  7. “Jobs fill your pocket, but adventures fill your soul.” I love that quote and all the others as well, Shilpa. The Mark Twain quote is also extremely inspiring. As Hans Christian Andersen put it, “To travel is to live.” I believe that implicitly.

  8. Quotes for a particular destination, by different tour agents sometimes may put the wanderlust to rest. The quotes shared here will revive it for sure!
    I loved the Ibn Battuta quote. One for the fact I can 100% relate it to my travel experiences. Second one…There’s a Ibn Battuta Mall in Dubai. Various parts of it are aesthetically done to reflect the country Ibn Batutta had traveled as a sailor / voyager. Walking through the mall inspires one to travel to these countries and one of them is India!
