"Travelers never did lie, though fools at..." - Quote by William Shakespeare

“A sad tale's best for winter. I have one of sprites and goblins.”

“My noble father, I do perceive here a divided duty. To you I am bound for life and education. My life and education both do learn me How to respect you. You are the lord of my duty, I am hitherto your daughter. But here’s my husband, And so much duty as my mother showed To you, preferring you before her father, So much I challenge that I may profess Due to the Moor my lord.”

“There is nothing serious in Mortality”

“I am a good horse to travel, but not from choice a roadster. The landscape-painter uses the figures of men to mark a road. He would not make that use of my figure.”

“Tis ever common That men are merriest when they are from home.”

“For what gives value to travel is fear. It breaks down a kind of inner structure we have. Travel robs us of such refuge. Far from our own people, our own language, stripped of all our props, deprived of our masks (one doesn't know the fare on the streetcars, or anything else), we are completely on the surface of ourselves.”

“The wise skeptic does not teach doubt but how] to look for the permanent in the mutable and fleeting.”

“'What is' is more important than 'what should be.' Too many people are looking at 'what is' from a position of thinking 'what should be'.”

“Do you think that the things people make fools of themselves about are any less real and true than the things they behave sensibly about? They are more true: they are the only things that are true.”
