Top Travel And Tourism Quotes

Travel And Tourism Quotes By Freya Stark

One can only really travel if one lets oneself go and takes what every place brings without trying to turn it into a healthy private pattern of one's own and I suppose that is the difference between travel and tourism. — Freya Stark

Travel And Tourism Quotes By Douglas Adams

When we told our guide that we didn't want to go to all the tourist places he took us instead to the places where they take tourists who say that they don't want to go to tourist places. These places are, of course, full of tourists. — Douglas Adams

Travel And Tourism Quotes By Paul Fussell

Before the development of tourism, travel was conceived to be like study, and its fruits were considered to be the adornment of the mind and the formation of judgement. — Paul Fussell

Travel And Tourism Quotes By Ray Bradbury

See the world. It's more fantastic than any dream made or paid for in factories. Ask for no guarantees, ask for no security. — Ray Bradbury

Travel And Tourism Quotes By J.G. Ballard

Tourism is the great soporific. It's a huge confidence trick, and gives people the dangerous idea that there's something interesting in their lives. It's musical chairs in reverse ... All the upgrades in existence lead to the same airports and resort hotels, the same pina colada bullshit. The tourists smile at their tans and their shiny teeth and think they're happy. But the suntans hide who they really are
salary slaves, with heads full of American rubbish. Travel is the last fantasy the 2oth Century left us, the delusion that going somewhere helps you reinvent yourself. — J.G. Ballard

Travel And Tourism Quotes By Donna George Storey

And so I told him how living in Japan would give him a leisure no mere tourist has, to know the rhythms of the place, a land of tiny poems. — Donna George Storey

Travel And Tourism Quotes By Paulo Coelho

Traveling is sacred; mankind has traveled ever since the dawn of time, in search of hunting and grazing ground, or milder climates. Very few men manage to understand the world without leaving their home towns. When you travel - and I am not speaking of tourism, but of the solitary experience of a journey - four important things occur in your life: — Paulo Coelho

Travel And Tourism Quotes By Henry David Thoreau

Only the traveling is good which reveals to me the value of home and enables me to enjoy it better. — Henry David Thoreau

Travel And Tourism Quotes By Anthony Marra

While looking up news from the North Caucasus on Twitter, I was linked to the sanguinely titled 'Seven Wonders of Chechnya Tour' on the website of Chechnya Travel, the postwar republic's first tourism outfit, founded in 2012. — Anthony Marra

Travel And Tourism Quotes By Christopher Doyle

As we've seen the rise of cultural, environmental and educational tourism in adventure travel, we've also seen the rise of female participation. Part of that is due to changes in women's attitudes about their own abilities. As more women participate in such things as fly-fishing, whitewater kayaking and bicycling, we're also seeing concurrent growth in those areas in adventure travel. — Christopher Doyle

Travel And Tourism Quotes By Lailah Gifty Akita

We travel to see beauty of souls in new landscapes. — Lailah Gifty Akita

Travel And Tourism Quotes By Samuel Johnson

To go and see one druidical temple is only to see that it is nothing, for there is neither art nor power in it; and seeing one is quite enough. — Samuel Johnson

Travel And Tourism Quotes By Mark Foley

The travel and tourism industry is the lifeblood of many states around the country - including Florida, California, New York and Nevada, to name a few. — Mark Foley

Travel And Tourism Quotes By Susan Sontag

Photography - the supreme form of travel, of tourism - is the principal modern means for enlarging the world. As a branch of art, photography's enterprise of world enlargement tends to specialize in the subjects felt to be challenging, transgressive. A photograph may be telling us: this too exists. And that. And that. (And it is all 'human.') But what are we to do with this knowledge - if indeed it is knowledge, about, say, the self, about abnormality, about ostracized or clandestine worlds? — Susan Sontag

Travel And Tourism Quotes By Buzz Aldrin

As we begin to have landings on the moon, we can alternate those with vertical launch of similar crew modules on similar launch vehicles for vertical-launch tourism in space, if you want to call it that ... adventure travel. — Buzz Aldrin

Travel And Tourism Quotes By Phil Cousineau

The practice of soulful travel is to discover the overlapping point between history and everyday life, the way to find the essence of every place, every day: in the markets, small chapels, out-of-the-way parks, craft shops. Curiosity about the extraordinary in the ordinary moves the heart of the traveler intent on seeing behind the veil of tourism. — Phil Cousineau

Travel And Tourism Quotes By Lawrence Millman

After a day on Mykines, I changed my mind about life not going on. A sort of life was going on, beating with a reasonalbe version of a pulse, but that life consisted for the most part of travelers like myself. There were maybe a dozen of us
one third of the island's population. Our tribe could only increase as the Mykines tribe dwindled away, a few falling down steps, most simply emigrating, until there would be, sad to say, only our peripatetic selves. We were the future of all places condemned by remoteness to a lingering, photogenic death. — Lawrence Millman

Travel And Tourism Quotes By Dan Eldon

The journey is the destination. — Dan Eldon

Travel And Tourism Quotes By Peter Hoeg

Traveling tends to magnify all human emotions. — Peter Hoeg

Travel And Tourism Quotes By Gustave Flaubert

Travel makes one modest. You see what a tiny place you occupy in the world. — Gustave Flaubert

Travel And Tourism Quotes By William T. Cavanaugh

The artificial preservation of local identities is essential to tourism. In other words, the tourist represents both the attempt to transcend all borders and identities and the simultaneous attempt to fix the identities of non-Western subjects within its gaze. — William T. Cavanaugh

Travel And Tourism Quotes By Paul Theroux

Many travelers are essentially fantasists. Tourists are timid fantasists, the others - risk takers - are bold fantasists. The tourists at Etosha conjure up a fantastic Africa after their nightly dinner by walking to the fence at the hotel-managed waterhole to stare at the rhinos and lions and eland coming to drink: a glimpse of wild nature with overhead floodlights. They have been bused to the hotel to see it, and it is very beautiful, but it is no effort....My only boast in travel is my effort... — Paul Theroux

Travel And Tourism Quotes By Doug Mack

I wore only black socks, because I had heard that white ones were the classic sign of the American tourist. Black ones though,- those'll fool 'em. I supposed I hoped the European locals' conversation would go something like this:

PIERRE: Ha! Look at that tourist with his camera and guidebook!
JACQUES: Wait, but observe his socks! They are...black!
PIERRE: Zut alors! You are correct! He is one of us! What a fool I am! Let us go speak to him in English and invite him to lunch! — Doug Mack

Travel And Tourism Quotes By Joseph Fink

She said if good-hearted families travel to Night Vale only to find their subconsciouses besieged with unforgettable revelations, horrors buried so deep as to be completely indescribable, revealing wholly unbearable new truths, then we certainly can't expect these people to return, let alone leave good Yelp ratings for local businesses. — Joseph Fink

Travel And Tourism Quotes By Frank Luntz

I do a lot of work in travel and tourism, and I think this story is in the book. This woman is in a hammock, and she's got the beach below her and the sky above her, and the ocean beyond her. She's relaxing. She's got a drink in her hand and a book. Every woman sees this picture and says, I want to be in that hammock. Every guy sees the picture and says, I want to be in that hammock with that woman. It works for everybody. — Frank Luntz

Travel And Tourism Quotes By Werner Herzog

When I say tourism is sin and traveling on foot is virtue, it's condensed into a dictum. It's much more complex than that, but let's face it, for me, my experience, the world reveals itself to those that travel on foot. You understand the world in a much deeper level. And it does good to anyone who makes film. — Werner Herzog

Travel And Tourism Quotes By William J. Clinton

I spent a lot of time when I was president, trying to end wars, prevent killing, and promote understanding. What I have seen is that peace works better than conflict, and one of the best manifestations of it is in travel and tourism. — William J. Clinton

Travel And Tourism Quotes By Alison Lurie

Though most tourists accepted the occasional comic misadventure, it was important to them that overall their vacation should be pleasant. When you spend money on a holiday you are essentially purchasing happiness: if you don't enjoy yourself you will feel defrauded. — Alison Lurie

Travel And Tourism Quotes By Karen Hughes

The travel and tourism industry, it's just a huge part of our economy. — Karen Hughes

Travel And Tourism Quotes By Lailah Gifty Akita

I love to receive a beautiful postcard from your place of voyage. — Lailah Gifty Akita

Travel And Tourism Quotes By John Lukacs

About these developments George Orwell, in Nineteen Eighty-Four , was quite wrong. He described a new kind of state and police tyranny, under which the freedom of speech has become a deadly danger, science and its applications have regressed, horses are again plowing untilled fields, food and even sex have become scarce and forbidden commodities: a new kind of totalitarian puritanism, in short. But the very opposite has been happening. The fields are plowed not by horses but by monstrous machines, and made artificially fertile through sometimes poisonous chemicals; supermarkets are awash with luxuries, oranges, chocolates; travel is hardly restricted while mass tourism desecrates and destroys more and more of the world; free speech is not at all endangered but means less and less. — John Lukacs

Travel And Tourism Quotes By Werner Herzog

Tourism is sin, and travel on foot virtue. — Werner Herzog

Travel And Tourism Quotes By Douglas Adams

David Attenborough has said that Bali is the most beautiful place in the world, but he must have been there longer than we were, and seen different bits, because most of what we saw in the couple of days we were there sorting out our travel arrangements was awful. It was just the tourist area, i.e., that part of Bali which has been made almost exactly the same as everywhere else in the world for the sake of people who have come all this way to see Bali. — Douglas Adams

Travel And Tourism Quotes By Mark Foley

Domestic travel and tourism-related spending has reached $1 trillion a year. — Mark Foley

Travel And Tourism Quotes By Gustave Flaubert

It is always sad to leave a place to which one knows one will never return. Such are the melancolies du voyage: perhaps they are one of the most rewarding things about traveling. — Gustave Flaubert

Travel And Tourism Quotes By Raymond Bonner

Think Indonesia and tourism, and the first thing that comes to mind is probably Bali. Think golf holiday, and most people would dream of Scotland or Ireland. But Indonesia harbors one of the best-kept secrets in the world of travel: it is a golfer's paradise. — Raymond Bonner

Travel And Tourism Quotes By Jenny Diski

But nothing will persuade me that the mere fact of being in a place is enough in itself to justify the effort of getting out of bed to become a tourist, or even a traveller. I don't have the slightest wish to be intrepid. I don't want to prove myself to myself or anyone else. I don't care if no one thinks me brave or hardy. I have no concern at all that I did not have whatever it is I should have had to take a dive out of a plane or off a building. None of that matters to me in the least. — Jenny Diski

Travel And Tourism Quotes By Lawrence Osborne

For a long time I had wanted to take leave of Planet Tourism, to find one of those places that occasionally turn up in the middle pages of newspapers in far-flung cities, in which
we are told
a mad loner has been discovered who has lost all contact with the modern world. It seems inevitable that this desire will one day be listed in the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of the American Psychiatric Association as Robinson Crusoe Syndrome. — Lawrence Osborne

Travel And Tourism Quotes By Lailah Gifty Akita

There is a beautiful village in every country. — Lailah Gifty Akita

Travel And Tourism Quotes By Donna George Storey

I bow my head submissively and see that my chest is heaving, already dotted with the telltale flush of sexual arousal. — Donna George Storey

Travel And Tourism Quotes By Mason Cooley

The routines of tourism are even more monotonous than those of daily life. — Mason Cooley

Travel And Tourism Quotes By Robert M. Pirsig

People entered the park and became polite and cozy and fakey to each other because the atmosphere of the park made them that way. In the entire time he had lived within a hundred miles of it he had visited it only once or twice. — Robert M. Pirsig

Travel And Tourism Quotes By John Glen

When the Bond films started, people didn't travel quite as much as they do now; a lot of people had never been outside of their own country, and certainly sitting in the cinema and seeing these exotic locations - I mean, that movie did great things for India, for tourism. They were very wise to allow us to film there. — John Glen

Travel And Tourism Quotes By Dave Barry

Never trust anything you read in a travel article. Travel articles appear in publications that sell large, expensive advertisements to tourism-related industries, and these industries do not wish to see articles with headlines like: URUGUAY: DON'T BOTHER. — Dave Barry

Travel And Tourism Quotes By Edward Norton

Practiced poorly, tourism can be extremely negative. — Edward Norton

Travel And Tourism Quotes By Robert Kurson

The feeling of a place was the best reason to go. — Robert Kurson

Travel And Tourism Quotes By Mark Twain

You perceive I generalize with intrepidity from single instances. It is the tourist's custom. — Mark Twain
