95 most inspirational travel quotes ever penned

Our favourite inspirational travel quotes have encouraged us to travel with abandon over the years. Perhaps they will do the same for you…

For us, there is no such thing as luxury travel; travel is, by default, a luxury. It is a privilege provided by the country of our birth, a privilege that many are not as fortunate to enjoy.

Sometimes, we have to pinch ourselves at just how ridiculous our lives have become: an ex-teacher and jobbing writer travelling the world for a living. It is absurd, it is astonishing, it is luxury.

When I first went travelling at 21 years old, my father gave me this quote scrawled on a piece of card.

It infused me with wanderlust. It encouraged me to get out of my comfort zone, make the most of my time, see the world and enjoy the freedom that comes with being on the road. It remains one of the most inspirational travel quotes I’ve read (even if Twain did not actually say it).

Today, 20 years and almost 100 countries later, it’s still in my wallet. Despite its tattered and dishevelled appearance, it’s every bit as important to me now as it was then.

With that in mind, we’ve collated our most beloved inspirational travel quotes to encourage readers to “explore, dream and discover” for themselves.

• Mark Twain Travel Quotes

Travel is fatal to prejudice, bigotry, and narrow-mindedness, and many of our people need it sorely on these accounts. Broad, wholesome, charitable views of men and things cannot be acquired by vegetating in one little corner of the Earth all one’s lifetime.

To do something, say something, see something, before anybody else — these are the things that confer a pleasure compared with which other pleasures are tame and commonplace, other ecstasies cheap and trivial. Lifetimes of ecstasy crowded into a single moment.

It is the loveliest fleet of islands [ Hawaii ] that lies anchored in any ocean.

No alien land in all the world has any deep strong charm for me but that one [ Hawaii ], no other land could so longingly and so beseechingly haunt me, sleeping and waking, through half a lifetime, as that one has done. Other things leave me, but it abides; other things change, but it remains the same.   For me the balmy airs are always blowing, its summer seas flashing in the sun; the pulsing of its surfbeat is in my ear; I can see its garlanded crags, its leaping cascades, its plumy palms drowsing by the shore, its remote summits floating like islands above the cloud wrack; I can feel the spirit of its wildland solitudes, I can hear the splash of its brooks; in my nostrils still lives the breath of flowers that perished twenty years ago.

We are all travelers in the wilderness of this world, and the best we can find in our travels is an honest friend. — Robert Louis Stevenson

• Adventure Travel Quotes

Adventure is worthwhile in itself. — Amelia Earhart

If you think adventure is dangerous, try routine; it is lethal. — Paulo Coelho

Most of us abandoned the idea of a life full of adventure and travel sometime between puberty and our first job. Our dreams died under the dark weight of responsibility. Occasionally the old urge surfaces, and we label it with names that suggest psychological aberrations: the big chill, a midlife crisis. — Tim Cahill

Only by going alone in silence, without baggage, can one truly get into the heart of the wilderness. All other travel is mere dust and hotels and baggage and chatter. — John Muir

Wilderness is not a luxury but a necessity of the human spirit, and as vital to our lives as water and good bread. — Edward Abbey

Once a journey is designed, equipped, and put in process, a new factor enters and takes over. A trip, a safari, an exploration, is an entity, different from all other journeys. It has personality, temperament, individuality, uniqueness. A journey is a person in itself; no two are alike. And all plans, safeguards, policing, and coercion are fruitless.   We find after years of struggle that we do not take a trip; a trip takes us. Tour masters, schedules, reservations, brass-bound and inevitable, dash themselves to wreckage on the personality of the trip. Only when this is recognized can the blown-in-the glass bum relax and go along with it. Only then do the frustrations fall away. In this a journey is like marriage. The certain way to be wrong is to think you control it. — John Steinbeck

What is that feeling when you’re driving away from people and they recede on the plain till you see their specks dispersing? – it’s the too-huge world vaulting us, and it’s good-bye. But we lean forward to the next crazy venture beneath the skies. — Jack Kerouac

A ship is safe in harbor, but that’s not what ships are for. — J.A. Shedd

It’s a terrible thing, I think, in life to wait until you’re ready. I have this feeling now that actually no one is ever ready to do anything. There is almost no such thing as ready. There is only now. And you may as well do it now. Generally speaking, now is as good a time as any. — Hugh Laurie

Adventure is a path. Real adventure – self-determined, self-motivated, often risky – forces you to have firsthand encounters with the world. The world the way it is, not the way you imagine it. Your body will collide with the Earth and you will bear witness. In this way you will be compelled to grapple with the limitless kindness and bottomless cruelty of humankind – and perhaps realize that you yourself are capable of both. This will change you. Nothing will ever again be black-and-white. — Mark Jenkins

The very basic core of a man’s living spirit is his passion for adventure. The joy of life comes from our encounters with new experiences, and hence there is no greater joy than to have an endlessly changing horizon, for each day to have a new and different sun. — Christopher McCandless

Adventure is allowing the unexpected to happen to you. Exploration is experiencing what you have not experienced before. How can there be any adventure, any exploration, if you let somebody else – above all, a travel bureau – arrange everything before-hand? — Richard Aldington

Be careful because Cambodia is the most dangerous place you will ever visit. You will fall in love with it, and eventually it will break your heart. — Joel Brinkley

• Solo Travel Quotes

To awaken quite alone in a strange town is one of the most pleasant sensations in the world. — Freya Stark

Do not go where the path may lead; go instead where there is no path and leave a trail. — Unknown

I can’t think of anything that excites a greater sense of childlike wonder than to be in a country where you are ignorant of almost everything. Suddenly you are five years old again. You can’t read anything, you have only the most rudimentary sense of how things work, you can’t reliably cross a street without endangering your life. Your whole existence becomes a series of interesting guesses. — Bill Bryson

The true fruit of travel is perhaps the feeling of being nearly everywhere at home. — Freya Stark

When you’ve managed to stumble directly into the heart of the unknown – either through the misdirection of others, or better yet, through your own creative ineptitude – there is no one there to hold your hand or tell you what to do. In those bad lost moments, in the times when we are advised not to panic, we own the unknown, and the world belongs to us. The child within has full reign. Few of us are ever so free. — Tim Cahill

No one realizes how beautiful it is to travel until he comes home and rests his head on his old, familiar pillow. — Lin Yutang

He travels the fastest who travels alone. — Rudyard Kipling

Travel can be one of the most rewarding forms of introspection. — Lawrence Durrell

When the traveler goes alone he gets acquainted with himself. — Liberty Hyde Bailey

The man who goes alone can start today; but he who travels with another must wait till that other is ready. — Henry David Thoreau

I think one travels more usefully when they travel alone, because they reflect more. — Thomas Jefferson

Loving life is easy when you are abroad. Where no one knows you and you hold your life in your hands all alone, you are more master of yourself than at any other time. — Hannah Arendt

Personally I like going places where I don’t speak the language, don’t know anybody, don’t know my way around and don’t have any delusions that I’m in control. Disoriented, even frightened, I feel alive, awake in ways I never am at home. — Michael Mewshaw

I can speak to my soul only when the two of us are off exploring deserts or cities or mountains or roads. — Paulo Coelho

Afoot and light-hearted I take to the open road. Healthy, free, the world before me. The long brown path before me leading me wherever I choose. — Walt Whitman

• Anthony Bourdain Travel Quotes

If you’re twenty-two, physically fit, hungry to learn and be better, I urge you to travel – as far and as widely as possible. Sleep on floors if you have to. Find out how other people live and eat and cook. Learn from them – wherever you go.

Travel changes you. As you move through this life and this world you change things slightly, you leave marks behind, however small. And in return, life — and travel — leaves marks on you. Most of the time, those marks — on your body or on your heart — are beautiful. Often, though, they hurt.

It’s an irritating reality that many places and events defy description. Angkor Wat and Machu Picchu , for instance, seem to demand silence, like a love affair you can never talk about.   For a while after, you fumble for words, trying vainly to assemble a private narrative, an explanation, a comfortable way to frame where you’ve been and what’s happened. In the end, you’re just happy you were there — with your eyes open — and lived to see it.

Travel is about the gorgeous feeling of teetering in the unknown.

I’m a big believer in winging it. I’m a big believer that you’re never going to find the perfect city travel experience or the perfect meal without a constant willingness to experience a bad one. Letting the happy accident happen is what a lot of vacation itineraries miss, I think, and I’m always trying to push people to allow those things to happen rather than stick to some rigid itinerary.

Do we really want to travel in hermetically sealed popemobiles through the rural provinces of France, Mexico and the Far East, eating only in Hard Rock Cafes and McDonalds? … I know what I want. I want it all. I want to try everything once.

It seems that the more places I see and experience, the bigger I realize the world to be. The more I become aware of, the more I realize how relatively little I know of it, how many places I have still to go, how much more there is to learn.   Maybe that’s enlightenment enough – to know that there is no final resting place of the mind, no moment of smug clarity. Perhaps wisdom, at least for me, means realizing how small I am, and unwise, and how far I have yet to go.

I think food, culture, people and landscape are all absolutely inseparable.

Food is everything we are. It’s an extension of nationalist feeling, ethnic feeling, your personal history, your province, your region, your tribe, your grandma. It’s inseparable from those from the get-go.

Southeast Asia has a real grip on me. From the very first time I went there, it was a fulfillment of my childhood fantasies of the way travel should be.

I wanted adventures. I wanted to go up the Nung river to the heart of darkness in Cambodia . I wanted to ride out into a desert on camelback, sand and dunes in every direction, eat whole roasted lamb with my fingers. I wanted to kick snow off my boots in a Mafiya nightclub in Russia. I wanted to play with automatic weapons in Phnom Penh, recapture the past in a small oyster village in France, step into a seedy neon-lit pulqueria in rural Mexico. I wanted to run roadblocks in the middle of the night, blowing past angry militia with a handful of hurled Marlboro packs, experience fear, excitement, wonder.   I wanted kicks – the kind of melodramatic thrills and chills I’d yearned for since childhood, the kind of adventure I’d found as a little boy in the pages of my Tintin comic books. I wanted to see the world – and I wanted the world to be just like the movies.

At this point I think my body is like an old car. Another dent ain’t gonna make a whole lot of difference. At best it’s a reminder that you’re still alive and lucky as hell. Another tattoo, another thing you did, another place you’ve been.

Without experimentation, a willingness to ask questions and try new things, we shall surely become static, repetitive, and moribund.

If I’m an advocate for anything, it’s to move. As far as you can, as much as you can. Across the ocean, or simply across the river. The extent to which you can walk in someone else’s shoes or at least eat their food, it’s a plus for everybody. Open your mind, get up off the couch, move.

Travel isn’t always pretty. It isn’t always comfortable. Sometimes it hurts, it even breaks your heart. But that’s okay. The journey changes you; it should change you. It leaves marks on your memory, on your consciousness, on your heart, and on your body. You take something with you. Hopefully, you leave something good behind.

The 86 most inspirational travel proverbs

By: Author Sylvia

Posted on Last updated: August 22, 2022

Are you looking for the most inspirational travel proverbs? You came to the right place.

Quotes and images are extremely powerful. They can inspire you to make a change in your life. 

In this blog post, you will find a collection of the 86 best travel proverbs to inspire and motivate you to pack your bags and go out and discover.

The quotes range from age-old pearls of wisdom to contemporary quotes.

We also included some best wishes for traveling abroad. Let yourself be inspired by these proverbs about traveling to lead life, experience adventures, and do the trips that you always dreamt of.

The most inspirational travel quotes 

1. “traveling is a brutality. it forces you to trust strangers and to lose sight of all that familiar comfort of home and friends. you are constantly off balance. nothing is yours except the essential things: air, sleep, dreams, sea, the sky – all things tending towards the eternal or what we imagine of it.” – cesare pavese, 2. “the traveler sees what he sees, the tourist sees what he has come to see.” – g.k. chesterton.

Who are you a traveler or a tourist? I guess we are a bit of both. On the one hand, we are absolutely tourists because when we are traveling somewhere we absolutely want to see the highlights. On the other hand, we’re open to discover new things and to gain experiences that you do not find in a travel guide. So, in a certain sense, we’re both a traveler and a tourist.

3. “I wish travel therapy was covered by my health insurance.”

I think many people would like this and perhaps it is not a bad idea since traveling is really a sort of therapy for us and maybe for you too.

When we have a lot of stress or we feel bad we should pack our bags and go traveling. We always return as reborn.  Unfortunately, this is not always possible, but that would of course change as soon as it is reimbursed by the insurance. Maybe we should start a petition. Who is in?

4. “Fear is only temporary. Regrets last forever.”

Sometimes it’s is really hard to overcome the fear, but in general, we prefer to feel the fear and do it anyway than to regret something. 

I must keep this quote in mind when Kris wants to go parasailing again😏.

56 travel together quotes for friends and loved ones

5. “When preparing to travel, lay out all your clothes and all your money. Then take half the clothes and twice the money.” -Susan Heller

In this area, we are a contrarian couple. For some reason, Kris usually takes more clothes on a trip than I do. I’m the one who only takes half the clothes but usually one week in our trip I will start complaining that I’m missing clothes…😏

6.“Life is a journey. Make the best of it.”

7. “Adventure may hurt you but monotony will kill you.”

This adventure travel quote applies mainly to me. I am a person who gets bored very quickly and always has to get new challenges. So please, give me a new adventure and a new destination every day. The experiences are sometimes disappointing but even then it is still much more fun to do something new every day opposed to just doing nothing or doing the same thing over and over again for days, weeks or even years.

8. “Do not even listen, simply wait, be quiet, still and solitary. The world will freely offer itself to you to be unmasked, it has no choice, it will roll in ecstasy at your feet.”  – Franz Kafka

25 travel with friends quotes.

9.  “A journey is best measured in friends rather than miles.” – Tim Cahill

10. “Stop worrying about the potholes in the road and enjoy the journey.”– Babs Hoffman

Sometimes you let yourself be distracted by small setbacks or worry about small things. We also did this when we were traveling in India because of the many scamming practices.

We felt like we were a walking ATM and we were annoyed because we got the impression we couldn’t trust anyone.

Obviously, this wasn’t much fun, but we did see beautiful palaces, monuments, and even a tiger.

It was not always easy, but we did our best to enjoy the trip and let the scamming practices as much as possible go over us.

11. “Every man can transform the world from one of monotony and drabness to one of excitement and adventure.” – Irving Wallace

Traveling does indeed ensure that the feeling of monotony disappears and when we have a new journey ahead and arrive at a new place, a feeling of excitement and expectation comes to the surface.

For us,  it is the best medicine against boredom and monotony.

12. “The most beautiful in the world is, of course, the world itself.” – Wallace Stevens

13. “Work, Travel, Save, Repeat.”

Until a year ago this was the exact description of the life of myself and my husband.

We both worked full time and saved most of our money to do one long holiday of 3 weeks and a city trip of a few days.

Then we started working again for the rest of the year and repeated this process the following year.

We did this for about 15 years before we decided to change our lives and go completely for our passion. As you can guess that is traveling. This travel blog is the result.

14. “When you travel, remember that a foreign country is not designed to make you comfortable. It is designed to make its own people comfortable.” – Clifton Fadiman

In some places, such as Vancouver and Lisbon, we immediately felt at home. Other places such as China and India were much more fascinating but it was not always easy to travel around.

Afterward, however, we look back on all our trips with satisfaction. We keep good memories of every trip we did.

15. “Travel, your money will return, your time won’t.”

We often tend to forget this ourselves, but time is actually one of the most precious possessions we have in this world. After all, the time that passes will never return. The following travel proverb also fits nicely.

16. “Dare to live the life you’ve always wanted.”

This is a proverb that certainly applies to us. For a long time we both worked full time and even though we were not 100% happy, we didn’t change anything about our lives. 

We did as most others do.  Hitting the traffic jam in the morning to head to work and again in the evening to go back home.

After all, we both had a good job. We were stuck in the golden cage and we continued on until Kris got his burnout in 2016. We were then forced to review our choices.

After much thought and a considerable amount of ups and downs, we finally made some drastic changes in our lives.

One of them was the creation of this travel website where we want to inspire you with our journeys around the world.

17. “We live in a wonderful world that is full of beauty, charm, and adventure. There is no end to the adventures we can have if only we seek them with our eyes open.” – Jawaharial Nehru

Every new destination brings us excitement and new adventures.

But you have to be open to them. Are you someone who looks at the world with an open mind?

18. “All you need is a passport.”

19. “Two roads diverged in a wood and I took the one less traveled by, and that has made all the difference” – Robert Frost

20. “to travel is to live” –  hans christian andersen.

I fully agree with this travel quote. Especially on a journey where I discover new places,  where I can learn new things and where I meet new people. 

Those are the journeys where I really feel like I’m living.

21. “Travel is the only thing that you buy that makes you richer.”

22. “Life begins at the end of your comfort zone.”

Last year, we seriously left our comfort zone and this has brought us a lot of adventure and new things. It is only by leaving your comfort zone and by doing things you are actually a little afraid of that new things come up and you experience new adventures.

For example, I was quite afraid to quit my job and especially to give up a number of so-called securities such as a permanent job, a fixed income, and a company car.

After hesitating for a long time, I finally made the decision.

Now I am very happy that I no longer have to endure the traffic jams every day.  I can now organize my own hours and work on what I love to do.

And even though not every day is puppy dogs and rainbows, we earn less and we work harder than before, yet we are much happier.

And this was only possible because we dared to leave our comfort zone and took a step into the unknown.

23. “The world is a book and those who do not travel read only one page.” – Augustine of Hippo

24. “be brave. take risks. nothing can substitute experience.” – paulo coelho.

And should something be disappointing, you can still go back. Everything flows, nothing is final. So be brave and take risks. You can not discover new things when you do not dare to let something go.

25. “Man cannot discover new oceans unless he has the courage to lose sight of the shore.” – Andre Gide

26. “our happiest moments as tourists always seem to come when we stumble upon one thing while in pursuit of something else.” – lawrence block, 27. “it is better to travel one mile than to read a thousand books.” – confucius.

Some people say that they do not need to travel because they can see everything on television, search it on the internet or read it in a book.

For us, television, the internet, and books cannot replace the experience that you have while you are traveling.

A documentary on TV, a video on the internet, travel guides or travel magazines … none of them can give you the feeling that you will experience in a certain place.

We absolutely love doing a lot of research before we head to a new destination, it gets us into the travel mood, but nothing can live up to the real thing.

28. “I’m not the same, having seen the moon shine on the other side of the world.” –Mary Anne Radmacher

29. “life is short and the world is wide.”, 30. “airplane travel is nature’s way of making you look like your passport photo.” – al gore.

31. “Never let your memories be greater than your dreams.” -Douglas Ivester

It’s great to have a lot of memories but you shouldn’t get nostalgic. It is those dreams and those big plans for the future that gives you that drive to go on. 

As soon as I get back home I start dreaming and planning towards the next adventure.

32. “The real voyage of discovery consists not in seeking new landscapes, but in having new eyes” – Marcel Proust

There is so much to see in this world and our bucket list keeps growing.

That is why we don’t often head to the same destination twice. But even if we do so, we always discover new things.

Or we see things in a different way. And so, time after time, it remains fascinating and educational to travel.

33. “I haven’t been everywhere, but it’s on my list.”– Susan Sontag

We have been fortunate to have already seen a lot of the world. We saw the cherry blossoms bloom in Tokyo, we set foot on Antarctica, we admired the Taj Mahal, we were lucky to see orangutans in Borneo,   we could check all of  the big five off of our list in South Africa, etc.

Nevertheless, our bucket list keeps growing.

Since a long time I dream of doing a sledding trip in Lapland, we would love to go gorilla spotting in Africa, do a road trip through Australia and New Zealand, admire the Northern Lights, stay in a luxury tent camp in the desert, stay overnight in an ice hotel etc.

Our list keeps growing. 

We will not be ready with our bucket list in the coming years so you will be able to keep track of our travel adventures for a long time.

34. “Travel your way”

This is our personal motto and also the tagline of our blog.

We absolutely don’t like organized trips and you will never see us on a group trip (or it should be that this would be the only option to visit a specific place).

We find it fantastic to travel around independently and to organize our own itinerary. We spend quite some time on this but figuring out everything in advance is already part of the fun.

Afterward, we share our travel tips and itineraries on this blog.  We hope they will inspire you and help you to “travel your way”.

35. “The world is our playground.”

36. “go, fly, roam, travel, voyage, explore, journey, discover, adventure.”.

We can not say it better: go out and discover the world. There is so much to see and to experience that you will not have enough time.

37. “Don’t tell me the sky’s the limit when there are footprints on the moon.” -Paul Brandt

One of my favorite activities on a Sunday morning is to browse through travel guides while enjoying a nice cup of coffee.

I dream away when I read about all those fantastic destinations and adventures.  Places we haven’t been yet and activities we haven’t experienced yet…

That’s how these things ended up on our bucket list:  making a boat tour on the Kerala backwaters, doing a road trip through Iceland, swimming with whale sharks in the Philippines and much more.

38.”We can’t really appreciate home until we leave it.”

39. “like all great travelers, i have seen more than i remember, and remember more than i have seen.” – benjamin disraeli.

From all our travels we especially remember all the fun experiences.

Like the time when we had to open a crab in a restaurant in Vietnam with tongs full of paint and the time we stumbled into a 5-star hotel in Peru with our backpack after spending 5 hours on a local bus.

We smelled hours in the wind and we were stared at by people wearing a tuxedo, complete with bow tie. We will remember the look at their faces for a long time …

We also have funny memories about the 5 tarantulas that apparently lived in a tree near the entrance of our hotel in the Amazon in Peru.

We passed the tree every day until, during a night walk, our guide with his flashlight showed the fuzzy creatures. From then on we kept a little more distance from the tree …

40. “Stuff your eyes with wonder, live as if you’d drop dead in ten seconds. See the world. It’s more fantastic than any dream made or paid for in factories.”–Ray Bradbury

41. “when overseas you learn more about your own country than you do about the place you’re visiting.” – clint borgen.

Because we travel so often, we appreciate Belgium more. For example, we are happy that in Belgium we do not have to show our ticket 30 times when we visit a monument like in India. We are also happy that we can walk outside in the dark without feeling unsafe like in South Africa.

At the same time, we miss the ultra luxurious heated toilets of Japan, the beautiful vast landscape in South America, the bounty islands in Malaysia etc.

Luckily, all these wonderful experiences are just a plane trip away and our new work offers us more freedom than we ever had before.

42. “A great way to learn about your country is to leave it.” – Henry Rollins

43. “Travel is the healthiest addiction.”

Traveling is for us definitely an addiction. When we are not planning the next trip, we really get withdrawal symptoms. So it is definitely an addiction. Glad to read that it is a healthy addiction.

44. “ The tans will fade but the memories will last forever.”

Although we don’t do a lot of sunbathing when we are traveling, I completely agree with this quote. We have so many great memories of our travels that will stay with us forever.

For example, we felt like superstars in China because everyone wanted to take pictures with us, we have great memories of a canoe trip with our parents in Canada and of a beautiful helicopter tour we did on a glacier in Alaska. Our tan has faded,  but even several years later these memories still bring smiles to our faces.

45. “The goal is to die with memories not dreams.”

46. “no place is ever as bad as they tell you it’s going to be.”– chuck thompson.

After we had read so many stories about the scams, the filth and the heat we were really afraid to go to India . It was so bad that a few days before we would actually leave, we were really saying how stupid we were to have chosen India as our next destination.  It seemed like we had made the decision in a moment of madness.

After all, it wasn’t so bad. It was certainly hot and sometimes we were seriously annoyed by the pushy Indians but we did not find it any dirtier than in other Asian countries that we have visited before.

Although it is not our favorite destination in the world, it was much better than we had expected and we are happy that we have seen the Taj Mahal, the forts, the Kerala backwaters and, last but not least, as big animal lovers, a tiger.

India has given us unforgettable experiences that will always stay with us and it turned out the experience was much better than what we expected.

47. “I need a six month holiday, twice a year.”

Fortunately, since we started this travel magazine, we can travel as much as we want without having to ask permission from a boss.

48. “To awaken quite alone in a strange town is one of the pleasantest sensations in the world.” – Freya Stark

 49. “twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn’t do than by the ones you did do. so throw off the bowlines. sail away from the safe harbor. catch the trade winds in your sails. explore. dream. discover.” – mark twain.

This is one of my favorite quotes and it has often helped me when I had to take a difficult decision such as quitting my permanent job to start this travel blog.

50. “Because in the end, you won’t remember the time you spent working in the office or mowing your lawn. Climb that goddamn mountain.” – Jack Kerouac

In the meantime, I quit my job for a while and although I liked it a lot, had super nice colleagues and we now have to work much harder for less money, I have not missed it for a minute.

51. “You don’t have to be rich to travel well. ”– Eugene Fodor

52. “live your life by a compass, not a clock.” – stephen covey, 53. “there’s no way i was born to just pay bills and die.”.

Within our circle of friends and acquaintances, we also see so many people who do nothing more than sleep, work and eat. And for a long time, I felt that we were on the same treadmill. Even now that we are self-employed, this quote must occasionally remind us that there is much more to life than working and paying the bills.

54.  “Quit your job, buy a ticket, get a tan, fall in love, never return.”

We have not dealt with it so drastically, although I would certainly love to live and work for a couple of years abroad.  We will see what the future brings.

55. “Life is a trip. Plan your next vacation.” – Matthew E. Fryer

This is a quote that certainly applies to us. 

Even when we were both still working full time we always planned our vacations well up in advance. 

It gave us peace of mind to know that a next trip was already planned. 

Life was less hard knowing that we had an upcoming vacation that we could look forward to.

Now that we have quit our jobs we have more freedom but we still spend a lot of time working on the site from behind our office desks. 

And more or less the same rule still applies to us. 

When I write this, we have just returned from a month in India and when we got home, we immediately booked tickets for our next destination. Dubai, here we come!

56. “The biggest adventure you can ever take is to live the life of your dreams.”

You only live once and time passes quickly. 

Still few people dare to dream or dare to go for their dreams.

Dare to take small steps towards your personal dream life and do not let yourself be influenced too much by what your environment or the society expects you to do.

57. “I am a passionate traveler, and from the time I was a child, travel formed me as much as my formal education.” – David Rockefeller

Travel should be mandatory on each school curriculum.

It is by traveling and by coming into contact with other cultures and customs that you learn to see things in a different way.

So I agree completely with David Rockefeller that it formed us as much as our formal school education.

58. “Good company in a journey makes the way seem shorter.” – Izaak Walton

I am fortunate that I can travel together with Kris and even though I hear from solo travelers how great it is to travel alone and how many cool and interesting people they meet.

Yet I would not want it any other way. After all, nothing is more fun than to experience unforgettable things such as spotting a tiger or seeing a beautiful sunset together with your partner.

It is always more fun to be able to share experiences with someone else.  It makes the memory for me more beautiful.

59. “Life is either a daring adventure or nothing at all.” – Helen Keller

60. “He who would travel happily must travel light.” – Antoine de St. Exupery

61. “with the right mindset and spirit, only the sky is the limit.”, 62. “once a year, go someplace you’ve never been before.”– dalai lama.

This should not always be a far away destination. Even close to home, you probably have fantastic spots that are worth a visit. Last year we spent a fun family weekend on the Wadden Islands in the Netherlands which are only about a 3-hour drive from our home.

63. “Take every chance you get in life because some things only happen once.” – Karen Gibbs

Dare to say yes to every opportunity that comes your way. You never know where it will lead you.

64. “Jobs fill your pocket, but adventures fill your soul.” – Jaime Lyn Beatty

65. “it feels good to be lost in the right direction”.

66. “Adventure is a path. Real adventure, self-determined, self-motivated, often risky, forces you to have firsthand encounters with the world” – Mark Jenkins

67. “better to see something once than hear about it a thousand times.”.

Not everything is as good or as beautiful as we had expected or hoped it to be.

Still, we are always glad to have seen it ourselves so that we could form an opinion of our own.

It is always more fun to have seen something yourself than to hear the stories from someone else.

The next travel proverb below fits in nicely.

68. “Don’t listen to what they say. Go see.”

69.  “I’m in love with cities I’ve never been to and people I’ve never met.” – John Green

70. “ perhaps travel cannot prevent bigotry, but by demonstrating that all people cry, laugh, eat, worry, and die, it can introduce the idea that if we try and understand each other, we may even become friends” – maya angelou, 71. “blessed are the curious for they shall have adventures.” – lovelle drachman.

73. “Travel makes one modest. You see what a tiny place you occupy in the world.” –  Gustave Flaubert

I regularly have this feeling while we are traveling.

With a beautiful sunset or during wildlife spotting.

Read also: What to do in the Azores.

I often have the feeling that we are only tiny radar wheels in this immense and fantastic world!

74. “Take only memories, leave only footprints.” – Chief Seattle

And take plenty of pictures.

75. “I travel a lot; I hate having my life disrupted by routine.” – Caskie Stinnett

76. “Live life with no excuses, travel with no regret” – Oscar Wilde

77. “travel far enough, you meet yourself” – david mitchell, 78. “if you reject the food, ignore the customs, fear the religion and avoid the people, you might better stay at home.” – james michener.

I personally like this quote a lot. When we are traveling I always taste the local food and often ask for the specialties of the country. Sometimes I’m lucky and I choose something really tasty, other times it is really disappointing.

Once I got ice cream with real peas in China. 

It was recommended to me and apparently Chinese really like it. I tried it, but it was not really my taste. 

I will never order it again but I’m happy I tried it.

79. “We travel not to escape life, but for life not to escape us.” – Anonymous 

80. “we travel for romance, we travel for architecture, and we travel to be lost.” – ray bradbury, 81. “travel is only glamorous in retrospect” – paul theroux.

During your trip, you often experience less blissful moments. After a long flight, you often suffer from a jet lag during the first days.

You drag yourself to the tourist sights during the day and at night you can count at least 20 times the number of squares in the wallpaper. Sometimes the other cultures are so shocking and so stifling that you long for home.

A complete guide to the Azores.

We have seen people suffer from altitude sickness and side effects of malaria pills. It is not all puppies and sunshine. But you do not see that in the pictures, of course.

These deprivations are fortunately quickly forgotten and the positive memories of a trip stay longer.

But traveling is indeed really glamorous when you think about it afterward while admiring the photos from your couch in the living room.

82. “When in doubt, travel.”

When I have to make a difficult decision or I doubt about something, traveling certainly helps me to take a step back, relax and see things from a different perspective.

83. “We travel, some of us forever, to seek other states, other lives, other souls.” – Anais Nin

 84. “ travel doesn’t become adventure until you leave yourself behind ” – marty rubin.

85. “ I travel because it makes me realize how much I haven’t seen, how much I’m not going to see, and how much I still need to see.” – Carew Papritz

And that’s probably why our bucket list keeps growing and growing …

86. “There are no foreign lands. It is the traveler only who is foreign.” – Robert Louis Stevenson

We hope that these holiday quotes and proverbs about travel have inspired you to travel and to discover this amazing world in which we live.

Traveling has changed our lives and we are convinced that it can also change yours. So book that ticket and go out because within 20 years you will be sorrier for the things you did not do, than for the things you did.

What’s your next destination?

Inspirational Travel Quotes & Captions for Instagram

1. When was the last time you did something for the first time. – John C. Maxwell

This travel quote inspires us to do all the crazy stuffs we have done. I am very scared of water. Agni simply inspires me with this quote before I go all out for any water sports. Before doing the scuba diving at Andaman , I was out of my wits. But I did it. Be it playing with the snow at Tsomgo Lake near Gangtok or shouting at top of our lungs at the Rupin Pass summit, we try to do things that we have not done before.

2. For my part, I travel not to go anywhere, but to go. I travel for travel’s sake. The great affair is to move. – Robert Louis Stevenson

Travel for the simple joy of it. Not for the reasons like peer pressure, getting the best social media posts or simply because everyone is doing so. There is a subtle joy in the journey. Travel without prejudice and without being judgmental .

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

Only when you see the mighty mountains, the vastness of the seas and the magnanimity of nature, only then you can truly understand our place in the world. Travel has made us grow, it has made us grateful and humble – something no other thing could have done.

5. Travel isn’t always pretty. It isn’t always comfortable. Sometimes it hurts, it even breaks your heart. But that’s okay. The journey changes you; it should change you. It leaves marks on your memory, on your consciousness, on your heart, and on your body. You take something with you. Hopefully, you leave something good behind. – Anthony Bourdain

This is perhaps one of the best quotes by Bourdain . It portrays all that is true about travelling without glorifying the glamour that is associated with travel these days. Travel is not about the perfect Instagram pictures where ladies sway around in their beautiful looking dresses and men looks perfect in with their six-pack abs. Travel is not only about taking the perfect sunset photos. Travel is not about glamour and fashion. Travel is anything but all these.

The photographs that you see everywhere are the best ones. Even this blog puts up only the best ones. But there are moments in travel that are not that great. There are long queues, missed flights, no sleep, dirty toilets and other mishaps. But whatever the experience is, good or bad, it shapes us into the person we are .

6. Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn’t do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbour. Catch the trade winds in your sails.

Explore. Dream. Discover.― Mark Twain

Yes, I had been waiting long for the perfect moment to do what I loved to. That moment actually never came until I realized that each moment is perfect for doing the thing I love. You just have to start off, begin the journey. Rest all will fall into place. This happens to be one of my favourite travel quotes.

7. And then there is the most dangerous risk of all — the risk of spending your life not doing what you want on the bet you can buy yourself the freedom to do it later. – Randy Komisar

8. If you’re twenty-two, physically fit, hungry to learn and be better, I urge you to travel – as far and as widely as possible. Sleep on floors if you have to. Find out how other people live and eat and cook. Learn from them – wherever you go. – Anthony Bourdain

9. Perhaps travel cannot prevent bigotry, but by demonstrating that all peoples cry, laugh, eat, worry, and die, it can introduce the idea that if we try and understand each other, we may even become friends. – Maya Angelou

10. We must go beyond textbooks, go out into the bypaths and untrodden depths of the wilderness and travel and explore and tell the world the glories of our journey. – John Hope Franklin

11. Every man’s life ends the same way. It is only the details of how he lived and how he died that distinguish one man from another. – Ernest Hemingway

12. All men dream, but no equally. Those who dream by night in the dusty recesses of their minds, wake in the day to find that it was vanity: but the dreamers of the day are dangerous men, for they may act on their dreams with open eyes, to make them possible. -T.E. Lawrence

13. I am not the same, having seen the moon shine on the other side of the world. – Mary Anne Radmacher

14. Travelling is brutality. It forces you to trust strangers and to lose sight of all that familiar comfort of home and friends. You are constantly off balance. Nothing is yours except the essential things: air, sleep, dreams, sea, the sky – all things tending towards the eternal or what we imagine of it. – Cesare Pavese

15. Broad, wholesome, charitable views of men and things cannot be acquired by vegetating in one little corner of the earth all of one’s lifetime. – Mark Twain

You cannot really sit at a corner and learn about the world and its people. Mark Twain has such great insight into travel and it shows in his quotes.

16. The world is a book, and those who do not travel read only one page. – Saint Augustine

17. When overseas you learn more about your own country than you do the place you’re visiting. – Clint Borgen

18. Stuff your eyes with wonder, live as if you’d drop dead in ten seconds. See the world. It’s more fantastic than any dream made or paid for in factories. – Ray Bradbury

Do not lose you sense of wonder. Marvel in the little joys of life. Not only it will mak you travel better, but also your life. Nothing can beat the thrill of travelling for us. We are happiest when we are travelling and exploring the world.

19. And then there is the most dangerous risk of all — the risk of spending your life not doing what you want on the bet you can buy yourself the freedom to do it later. – Randy Komisar

20. There is freedom waiting for you, on the breezes of the sky. And you ask “What if I fall?” Oh but my darling, what if you fly? – Erin Hanson

21. The traveller sees what he sees, the tourist sees what he has come to see. -Gilbert K. Chesterton

22. The purpose of life, after all, is to live it, to taste experience to the utmost, to reach out eagerly and without fear for a newer and richer experience. – Eleanor Roosevelt

23. Take the time to put the camera away and gaze in wonder at what’s there in front of you. – Erick Widman

The quote by Erick Widman is directed to all those who have forgotten the simple joys of travelling while trying to capture and document the destinations. Once in a while, put away the camera or phone, stop taking down notes, and simply soak in the place.

24. If we travel imply to indulge ourselves we are missing some of the greatest lessons life has to offer. – Unknown

25. Own only what you can always carry with you: know languages, know countries, know people. Let your memory be your travel bag. – Alexander Solzhenitsyn

26. Once the travel bug bites, there is no known antidote, and I know that I shall be happily infected until the end of my life. ― Michael Palin

Best Travel Quotes Showing the Importance of Travel

28. Our happiest moments as tourists always seem to come when we stumble upon one thing while in pursuit of something else. — Lawrence Block

29. Life is short and the world is wide, the sooner you start exploring it, the better. – Simon Raven

30. The real voyage of discovery consists not in seeking new landscapes, but in having new eyes. – Marcel Proust

31. If you reject the food, ignore the customs, fear the religion and avoid the people, you might better stay at home. – James Michener

We totally agree with Michener. If we do not meet new people, reject their customs and traditions, we better remain at home. If e choose to live in our own castle, then it is no point in travelling to a new place. You can simply do that by a flick of a channel nowadays. We travel to meet new people, experience a new culture and taste various cuisine. And of course, in all our explorations, respect the people and their traditions .

Short Travel Quotes & Travel Captions for Instagram

32. Wherever you go, go with all your heart. – Confucius

33. Travelling – it leaves you speechless, then turns you into a storyteller. – Ibn Battuta

The famous Moroccan scholar and explorer had widely travelled the medieval. His thirty years of journey has been chronicled in A Gift to Those Who Contemplate the Wonders of Cities and the Marvels of Travelling.

While travelling, we are often wonderstruck at the beauty of the nature or cultural heritage of the place. There are times we think that that we can neither express these feelings by words, nor can capture the marvel on camera. But travelling has its own way of expression. It finds its way through the words of the traveller and we, ordinary people become extraordinary storytellers .

Planes, Trains, and Automobiles is a Thanksgiving classic starring Steve Martin and the late great John Candy . The story follows a man trying to get home for Thanksgiving dinner, but he is delayed by the weather and the lovable but chatty Del Griffith (Candy). The two team up to get Neal (Martin) home, employing the services of every method of transportation a person could think of. Along the way, however, it seems that everything that can go wrong for the duo does.

Watch on Paramount+

John Hughes' masterpiece is often remembered for its great one-liners from both Steve Martin and John Candy and for its unforgettable twist ending. The best Planes, Trains and Automobiles quotes will live on for generations to come thanks to the quality of the heart and humor present in the classic . The odd couple of Steve Martin's Neal Page and John Candy's Del Griffith is one for the ages, delivering one of the great examples of screen chemistry in movie history, with Hughes' writing giving them both tons of unforgettable lines.

“Y’know, The Finest Line A Man’ll Walk Is Between Success At Work And Success At Home. I Got A Motto – Like Your Work, Love Your Wife.”

Del griffith.

Planes, Trains and Automobiles is, in a lot of ways, a movie about marriage, with Neal Page behaving in all manner of unpleasant ways while justifying it to himself through his love for his wife and family, and his desire to get home to them. Neal loves his wife, but does he truly appreciate her?

I got a motto – like your work, love your wife.

Del reveals himself at the end of the movie as a kind of Ghost of Christmas Future for Neal. Del lived a life on the road and now the road is all he has. There's no home to go back to. It gives Del this painfully real insight that comes off as sweet and maybe even a little naive when his motto is heard early on in the film, with the words taking on more meaning by the end once the audience knows the truth of Del's life.

“Please. Have Mercy. I’ve Been Wearing The Same Underwear Since Tuesday.”

At the pair's lowest moment, Del and Neal need to get a room for the night as the car they rented is now mostly destroyed, and the temperature is getting even lower than usual on their icy journey.

With very little money left, Neal is forced to beg and barter in order to get a room, eventually trading his watch but not before making this hilarious plea to the motel receptionist with an incredibly relatable Planes, Trains, and Automobiles quote for anyone who has had travel troubles.

“Oh, He’s Drunk. How Would He Know Where We’re Going?”

In one of the movie's most memorable sequences, Del gets turned around while on the highway and ends up driving the wrong way. When some onlookers try to tell the oblivious Del and Neal, Del interprets their warning as a suggestion that they're heading away from their destination and not that they're on the wrong side of the highway.

Del simply thinks that the other driver and their passenger must be drunk and want to race, brushing them off and driving straight towards two trucks. This results in the iconic moment where Del suddenly looks like the devil to Neal as they narrowly escape a crushing death.

“This Is Czechoslovakian Ivory.”

When Del and Neal arrive in St. Louis, they're pretty strapped for cash and running low on transportation options. Del makes some quick money by selling his shower curtain rings to passersby, advertising them as various humorously fake items.

Aside from linking them to celebrities like Walter Kronkite and Diane Sawyer, Del sells some shower curtain rings as " Czechoslovakian ivory ", which the master salesman gets just to roll off his tongue. Throughout the scenes that follow, viewers will notice quite a few people using the shower curtain rings for surprising uses - including as earrings.

“Larry Bird Doesn’t Do As Much Ball-Handling In One Night As You Do In An Hour.”

After already getting into a pretty serious argument about the habits of the other, Del and Neal start to dig into each other again in their rented car with Del prepared to critique Neal more effectively this time around.

Del points out that Neal has a habit of handling his groin by making this comparison to the skills of basketball legend Larry Bird, flipping the tables on the much more eloquent Neal and leaving him a little lost for words.

"Well, Let Me Just Close This Conversation By Saying You Are One Unique Individual."

Neal may have a short temper at times, but he certainly hasn't encountered someone like Del before. Their drunken banter is hilarious as the two share tequila and Doritos, and as they settle down for the night, Neal throws him a compliment.

Unique is the right word to describe Del. The audience never knows what will come next for the two. But the audience does know that Del will deal with it with an optimistic attitude, unlike Neal's pessimistic view. Opposites do attract.

"Four F****** Wheels And A Seat!"

Not only is this arguably the funniest scene from the movie but it's generally considered to be the most iconic of the Planes, Trains, and Automobiles quotes too. Steve Martin's performance in this scene alone is often remembered as one of his greatest screen performances , his rant is simply hilarious and convincing considering all he's been through just to get home for Thanksgiving.

You can start by wiping that f****** dumb-ass smile off your rosy f****** cheeks. Then you can give me a f****** automobile. A f****** Datsun. A f****** Toyota. A f****** Mustang. A f****** Buick! Four f****** wheels and a seat!

At this point, it doesn't matter what type of car or method of transportation, poor Neal just wants a way out of the madness that has ensued over the past few days.

"Those Aren't Pillows!"

Two strangers met at an airport and agreed to share a room for the night because of a blizzard, with one bed. What could go wrong? Everything gets too personal with Neal waking up to find Del's hand between "two pillows".

Considering the argument the two had the night before, this was not the morning the two expected to have and their bluster as they attempt to brush the moment off is ultimately charming. It's easily one of the funniest quotes in Planes, Trains and Automobiles .

"If I Wanted A Joke, I'd Follow You Into The John And Watch You Take A Leak."

By this point in Planes, Trains, and Automobiles , Neal has no filter and doesn't care for niceties with strangers. When someone advises Neal to travel by plane instead of a car, he responds a little too harshly.

The last time Neal was on a plane he was met with the same fake hospitality and kicked to the back of the plane. Neal learned his lesson here and was picked up by his groin as a result and thrown into the road.

"Six Bucks And My Right Nut Says We're Not Landing In Chicago."

Travel delays are inevitable at airports. Airlines are at the mercy of the weather as impending storms can keep flyers where they are for days. On their descent to what is Wichita rather than Chicago, Del realizes they have a long way to go to get home.

But what's great about this Planes, Trains, and Automobiles quote is how relatable it is. Millions of people face this situation, especially during the holidays when the winter weather settles in.

"Was That Seat Hot Or What? I Feel Like A Big Whopper. Turn Me Over, I'm Done On This Side."

The vehicle may not have been fit for highway travel, but it certainly kept the two of them warm. Did a car fire stop the two from getting home? Of course not, and the two were left with a few laughs and some griddle marks on their backs from their seats.

Despite the ups and downs of the journey, the two can share a few laughs at how crazy things got.

"How Am I Supposed To Go With The Flow..."

This sums Neal's troubles up in one Planes, Trains, and Automobiles quote. Del is a "charmed man" whose inside information on all the hotels, motels and diners gives him an edge Neal doesn't have. When Del tells him to go with the flow, he can't possibly wrap his head around doing so.

How am I supposed to go with the flow when the rental car agency leaves me in a 100-acre parking lot with keys to a car that isn't there then I have to hike back 3 miles back to find out they don't have any more cars?

Not only that, but it speaks to the unpredictability of holiday traveling. People want the impossible when they're at the mercy of Mother Nature. There's nothing more frustrating for a traveler like Neal than nothing being in their control.

"I Like... I Like Me. My Wife Likes Me. My Customers Like Me. 'Cause I'm The Real Article. What You See Is What You Get."

Arguably the most iconic, heart-wrenching dialogue exchange in the movie (aside from the ending) as Neal tears into Del. But despite Del's flaws, he knows what he is and what he isn't. He's a genuine person whose only problem is being too nice. It's not too often a person like Del meets a guy like Neal.

When they do, the two personalities are bound to clash, it's inevitable. Neal's words hurt, but Del doesn't let them get him down, even if there's an unavoidable tinge of sadness behind them that Neal only comes to notice in hindsight.

"I Don't Have A Home. Marie's Been Dead For 8 Years."

One of the reasons why Planes, Trains, and Automobiles is often spoken about is its twist ending. Not an M. Night Shyamalan twist , but one that opened America's eyes to an ongoing problem not many were too comfortable to talk about – homelessness.

Del Griffith had been living on the road for years because there was nowhere else to go. This particular Planes, Trains, and Automobiles quote was a genuine surprise for the audience that brought the humor of the movie down to earth. Audiences didn't see this coming but were glad to see Del on his way home with Neal for Thanksgiving Dinner with something he's missed for 8 years: family.

"When Am I Ever Gonna Wake Up? I Wish You Were Here With Me Right Now. But I Guess That's Not Gonna Happen. Not Now, Anyway."

This scene is often overlooked when compared to the others, but it possesses a rather grim moment for a key character. Del is left sitting in the broken car with no protection from the blizzard outside.

He's left to his thoughts, thinking about his flaws, insecurities, and his wife. At the end of the scene, Del closes his eyes as if to go to sleep. This is the real low point of the movie before Neal opens the door to his room and invites Del in, rekindling a spark of friendship between the two. It's these moments of pathos combined with all the humor that makes Planes, Trains, and Automobiles quotes so memorable and the movie so beloved.

27 Eye-Opening Quotes From People With Disabilities

"Stop saying I am inspiring or amazing when I do ordinary things."

We spoke to a variety of people from all over the country who have both visible and invisible disabilities about what they wish people outside the community knew, misconceptions that they encounter and things they wish people would stop doing or saying.

What do you wish people outside the disability community knew or understood?

• “ That having a disability can be a positive part of who you are . My disability has shaped my career and has allowed me to meet so many wonderful people! ” — Arielle Silverman, 39, is blind. She is d irector of research at the American Foundation for the Blind.
• “ Deafness does not prevent people from being successful — discrimination is the main barrier we face.” —Sheryl Emery, 64, is deaf. She is President of National Black Deaf Advocates .
• “ Ableist ideas and beliefs affect people with disabilities in all aspects of life , including employment, healthcare, education, housing, transportation, etc. These ideas and beliefs create systems that discriminate and oppress people with disabilities.” —Theo W. Braddy is paralyzed from the neck down. He is executive director of The National Council on Independent Living .
• “Autism can be an incredibly debilitating disability— there’s an extremely high prevalence of loneliness in the autism community. Individuals with autism die 16 years younger than the average human. 85% of college educated autistics are unemployed. I like to say that with autism I can excel at the extraordinary, but I can really struggle with the simple .”— Russell Lehmann , 33, has autism, OCD, depression and anxiety. He is a speaker, poet and activist.
• “ People with disabilities are just as worthy as those without disabilities to live happy, productive lives.” — Sydney Badeau, 30, has dyspraxia, a nonverbal learning disorder and a sensory processing disorder. She is an advocacy and outreach specialist at The Arc Wisconsin .
• “ Recognizing the importance of accessibility and inclusivity is vital . For example, having ramps and wider doorways not only benefits wheelchair users but also individuals with mild cerebral palsy, who may experience difficulty with coordination or movement on one side of their body. This promotes equality and empathy for everyone. —Ashley Glears, 30, has cerebral palsy with right hemiplegia. She is a chapter associate at The Arc of the United States.
• “It’s important to understand that disability is a natural part of the human experience and that people with disabilities deserve equal rights, opportunities, and respect. I wish people outside the disability community understood the significance of inclusive practices and the value of diverse perspectives in all aspects of life. ” —Dr. Yvette Pegues, Ed.D., 45, has a traumatic brain injury and spinal cord injuries. She is D&I Executive & Chief Diversity Officer at Your Invisible Disability Group.
• “ People with disabilities are individually different from each other . We have different goals and views. We have different approaches to life. We are just human beings who want equal access to reach our different goals.” — Sean Pevsner, 53, has cerebral palsy. He is a law firm partner with Whitburn & Pevsner, PLLC .

What do you wish people outside the disability community would stop doing and/or saying?

• “ I wish they would stop saying I am amazing or inspiring when I do ordinary things. ” — Arielle Silverman
• “ Stop asking Deaf people if we can read your lips. Communication is the responsibility of all parties in a conversation . Asking the Deaf person to read your lips places all the responsibility for communicating on the Deaf person. ” —Sheryl Emery
• “ Stop saying people with disabilities are a vulnerable population. People with disabilities are not weak and fragile - this characterization does more harm than good. ” — Theo W. Braddy
• “I wish people would refrain from making assumptions or judgments about individuals with disabilities based solely on their appearance or perceived limitations. It's important to approach each person with respect, understanding, and open-mindedness.” — Ashley Glears
• “I wish people would stop constantly infantilizing adults with disabilities , especially those who are nonspeaking or minimally speaking.” —Elizabeth "Lizzy" Graham, 34, has Asperger’s/Autism, ADHD, Anxiety with OCD tendencies, eczema and obstructive sleep apnea. She is service coordinator for Medicaid HCBS Waiver Services at The Arc of Prince George's County.
• "I wish people would stop using derogatory terms about people with disabilities and assuming that having a disability means you can't do something. For example, I enjoy 20+ adapted sports and my activity is a form of activism." — Dr. Yvette Pegues
• “People should stop automatically assuming that we are brave for dealing with our disabilities. People should stop considering us vulnerable people who cannot work and contribute to our community.” — Sean Pevsner
• “I wish they would stop making fun of and looking down on people with disabilities. I also wish they would stop treating people with disabilities like children . Often time, people with intellectual and developmental disabilities are treated like children. They’re not - they’re adults.” — Melody Cooper, 54, has cerebral palsy and intellectual disability. She is self-advocate specialist at The Arc of Indiana .
• “One thing that I wish people would stop assuming is that people who experience disability are living off the government . This is not the case at all. We need the assistance to live a normal life like everyone else in the world and we are trying to make something for ourselves with the support we have provided to us.” — Ric Nelson, 40, has cerebral palsy. He is an executive director of Peer Power .

What's a misconception people have about you and your abilities?

• “ That I am lacking something or 'living in darkness .' Or that I am perpetually afraid of the world around me just because I can’t see it. My life experience is rich with many other sensations, thoughts and emotions that have nothing to do with vision or lack thereof. ” — Arielle Silverman
• “ There are Deaf people in almost every profession. Don’t assume because a person cannot hear that they are incapable. Not everyone lip reads and we do not have better sight to make up for not being able to hear . We enjoy music, we drive. The biggest barriers we face are attitudes.” —Sheryl Emery
• “ The biggest misconception is they're underestimating me and the 61 million others like me - this comes from a long history of devaluing people like me.” —Theo W. Braddy
• “ Society has taught me from a young age that I can’t show my autism in public . So, a lot of my struggles are in my house, alone. A lot of the struggle is behind the scenes.” — Russell Lehmann
• “One big misconception is that I am not able to follow directions, learn, or be employable . I want to work, so I can be independent and get my own apartment.” —Marcus Stewart, 23, has Down Syndrome.
• “That not everyone with a disability presents in the same way. Some may struggle with something while others may not, and each person may need different or unique accommodations.” — Sydney Badeau

• “One common misconception people have about me and my abilities is assuming that I'm only capable of simple tasks or responses, when in reality, I'm capable of understanding complex concepts and engaging in meaningful conversations across a wide range of topics.” — Ashley Glears
• “I operate at the intersections of a woman of color with visible and non-visible disabilities, so I encounter many layers of misconceptions in my life. Nevertheless, I’m a proud wife, mom, engineer, educator, and advocate. My daily fight for the cessation of stereotypes and stigmatizing language surrounding disability is not for me, but others without the voice to fight for themselves. I wish people understood the innovative contributions that disabled people bring to communities and society .” —Dr. Yvette Pegues
• “ People have the misconception that I cannot represent people in cases . They assume incorrectly that since I have a speech impairment, I cannot argue for my clients’ best interest. It is very tiring to have to constantly prove myself.” — Sean Pevsner
• “People have thought that I would never be anything or do anything, that I don’t know what’s going on in the world. Having an intellectual disability does not mean you’re dumb . They work harder than most just to do things others take for granted. They may need help with certain things, but don’t we all?” — Melody Cooper

It looks like Microsoft's ex-Bing boss just threw shade at Mustafa Suleyman

• Former Bing chief Mikhail Parakhin appeared to subtly criticize Microsoft AI CEO Mustafa Suleyman.
• Parakhin wrote it's "hard to disagree" when an X user said "we need you."
• The comment was in response to a post quoting Suleyman's recent TED Talk that was blasted by VCs.

Microsoft's former Bing chief appears to have thrown shade at Mustafa Suleyman .

Mikhail Parakhin, who stepped down from his role just days after Suleyman became CEO of Microsoft AI, commented under an X post about the DeepMind cofounder.

An X user wrote "We need you ngl" (short for "not gonna lie") under a post summarizing Suleyman's TED Talk last week, which some critics have been ripping into.

Parakhin responded in a comment that looked like a low-key dig at Suleyman: "Hard to disagree :-)."

Some venture capitalists have been taking aim on X at Suleyman's AI remarks in his TED Talk.

Martin Casado, a partner at Andreessen Horowitz's firm a16z, said : "Good god. Make it stop. Total fucking nonsense."

John Chu, a VC firm Khosla Ventures partner, wrote : "This is what happens when you hire the business cofounder who doesn't really understand the tech."

Pedro Domingos, a computer science professor at the University of Washington also chimed in: "When you give a midwit a platform."

Microsoft executive vice-president Rajesh Jha announced in an internal memo last month obtained by The Verge that Parakhin had "decided to explore new roles."

Parakhin would have reported to Suleyman after Satya Nadella's reshuffle in which he was tapped to lead its consumer AI products and research including Copilot, Bing, and Edge.

Parakhin, who led the company's Bing search engine and advertising businesses, will now report to Microsoft CTO Kevin Scott instead.

Suleyman's first big move at Microsoft was announcing an AI hub in London. He cofounded Inflection AI firm in 2022 alongside Karén Simonyan and "Paypal mafia" member Reid Hoffman. Before that he cofounded DeepMind in 2010, which was acquired by Google in 2014.

Microsoft didn't immediately respond to a request for comment from Business Insider, made outside normal working hours.
