Wilfred Thesiger Quotes
For Me, Exploration Was A Personal Venture. I Did Not Go To The Arabian Desert To Collect Plants Nor To Make A Map; Such Things Were Incidental. At Heart I Knew That To Write Or Even To Talk Of My Travels Was To Tarnish The Achievement. I Went There To Find Peace In The Hardship Of Desert Travel And The Company Of Desert Peoples. I Set Myself A Goal On These Journeys, And, Although The Goal Itself Was Unimportant, Its Attainment Had To Be Worth Every Effort And Sacrifice ... No, It Is Not The Goal But The Way There That Matters, And The Harder The Way The More Worth While The Journey.
