How long the night to the watchman, How long the road to the weary traveller, How long the wandering of many lives To the fool who misses the way.
Gautama Buddha

The true traveller is the one urged to move about for physical, aesthetic, intellectual as well as spiritual reasons.

John James Audubon
Image
Let thy mind still be bent, still plotting, where, And when, and how thy business may be done. Slackness breeds worms but the sure traveller, Though he alights sometimes still goeth on.
George Herbert
Image
O pusillanimous Heart, be comforted And, like a cheerful traveller, take the road Singing beside the hedge.
Elizabeth Barrett Browning
Image
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.
Dilgo Khyentse Rinpoche
