So travel for me is an act of discovery and of responsibility as well a grand adventure and a constant liberation.

In an age of constant movement, nothing is more urgent than sitting still.

Hello Kitty will never speak.

Making a living and making a life sometimes point in opposite directions.

Travel is not really about leaving our homes, but leaving our habits.

But it’s only by having some distance from the world that you can see it whole, and understand what you should be doing with it.

Home is not just the place where you happen to be born. Its the place where you become yourself.

We travel, initially, to lose ourselves; and we travel, next to find ourselves.

Finding a sanctuary, a place apart from time, is not so different from finding a faith.

I often think we're most happy when we forget the time.

A person susceptible to "wanderlust" is not so much addicted to movement as committed to transformation.

Never ever let a stupid criticise you. And as we already know, everyone is stupid.

What you go through is nothing compared to who you are.

What you wish for, what you most hope for - that is your greatest illusion.

Satan was crouched in the corner of his office, playing a gameboy, 'Die alien scum' he was saying feverishly.

Oh, gentle feelings, soft sounds, the goodness and the gradual stilling of a soul that has been moved; the melting happiness of the first tender, touching joys of love- where are you?

Once again you've put your keen and penetrating mind to the task and as usual come to the wrong conclusion!

I wait and take on projects that I think can work.

I am on Facebook, but mainly as a way to spy on my children. I find out more about them from their Facebook pages than from what they tell me.

Vanity can apply to both insecurity and egotism.

Monsieur' to a convict is a glass of water to a man dying of thirst at sea; ignominy thirsts for respect.
