H.G.Wells

Iris Murdoch

Quotes About Traveller #159460
#20. The strangest thing in all man's travelling is that he should carry about with him incongruous memories. There is no foreign land; it is the traveller only who is foreign, and now and then, by a flash of recollection, lights up the contrasts of the earth.

D.E. Stevenson

Charles Haddon Spurgeon

Quotes About Traveller #264696
