Short Inspirational Quotes #11 – “Jump, and you will find out how to unfold your wings as you fall.
” – Ray BradburyThis quote is one of my favorites. Sitting at the edge of the nest looking down is what scares me. Bite the bullet and leap.
Short Inspirational Quotes #12 – “Only in the darkness can you see the stars.” – Martin Luther King Jr.
It’s funny that when life throws at you what you don’t want, how it’s then you realize what you do want.
Don’t focus on the darkness. Let the stars guide your destiny.
Short Inspirational Quotes #13 – “If you don’t like the road you’re walking, start paving another one.
” – Dolly PartonYour path in life isn’t in cement. It’s flexible.
If you don’t like where you live, move. Does your job stress you out? Change careers.
One change can be the catalyst for a whole new life that you’ll enjoy a lot better.
Short Inspirational Quotes #14 – “If we all did the things we are capable of doing we would literally astound ourselves.
” – Thomas EdisonYes. This. Imagine if we became the absolute best version of ourselves. Who would you become? How much different would your circumstances be?
Short Inspirational Quotes #15 – “You are never too old to set another goal or to dream a new dream.
” – C. S. LewisI don’t want you to think that because you’re older, that it’s too late. On the contrary, you now have the wisdom to move you forward faster than others that still have life lessons to learn that you’ve already been through.
Short Inspirational Quotes #16 – “Be willing to be a beginner every single morning” – Meister Eckhart<
When you start on a difficult path, you’re no longer in your comfort zone, and that’s a good thing.
I’ve worked with so many people at the beginning of their careers that thought they knew everything. So instead of being a sponge of someone older and wiser, they thought they were successful on their own.
Then that older and wiser person left the company, and the walls started collapsing around them. They finally realized the success they were enjoying was not their own. Instead, they were coasting on the wisdom of others.
Be open to learning from others who are better than you. Receive criticism well and look at your work with fresh eyes. These ideas will let you hit your goals faster and prevent more failures.
Short Inspirational Quotes #17 – “I have not failed. I’ve just found 10,000 ways that won’t work.
” – Thomas A EdisonWhen you start blogging, I listened to the stories of how easy it was to make money from it. I mean, how hard can it be? Write a blog post, hit “publish” and there you go. Money rolls in.
If you want 50 people to read your blog per month, then this is a great strategy. But…if you want to make a living at it, it’s much harder.
There are a lot of blogs now. It might have been much easier back in the day, but to make a living at it now takes a lot of effort.
Don’t go into things thinking it’s going to be easy because it appears that way on the surface. Go forward with the thought you’re going to have to learn a lot and try different things to find your path.
And that’s okay. What you end up learning is invaluable.
Short Inspirational Quotes #18 – “To live is the rarest thing in the world. Most people exist, that is all.
” – Oscar WildeWhat does it mean to you to really live? Turn off the television and take the first step. Your destiny is waiting for you. Will you be one of the few that live it?
Short Inspirational Quotes #19 – “Life isn’t about finding yourself. Life is about creating yourself.
” – George Bernard ShawStop searching and start creating. We are creative beings. Use your power to construct a life that you’ll love to be in every single day.
The easiest way to start is to try different things on for size and to see how you like it. Want to write a novel? Start with page one. How about opening a restaurant? Get a job as a server of your favorite restaurant and see how an amazing restaurant operates.
Short Inspirational Quotes #20 – “Don’t judge each day by the harvest you reap but by the seeds that you plant.
” – Robert Louis StevensonPlant seeds. Lots and lots of seeds. I’ve worked in sales my entire life, and I knew that if I wasn’t planting seeds daily, there would be no harvest.
Farmers don’t have the luxury of being lazy, and that’s why I love them so much. I come from a family of farmers and they are the kindest, most hard-working people you ever want to meet. They know the secret to life. Amend your soil. Plant seeds. Nourish and water them. Only then will you have the rewards.
Too many people don’t want to do the hard work. Volunteer a day to help a farmer out. You’ll see what I’m talking about.
Short Inspirational Quotes #21 – “As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others.
” – Marianne WilliamsonI know this is true. When you are no longer fearful of becoming the person you were meant to be, others will be inspired to do the same.
Your ability to transform yourself, not only affects your life – but also everyone you encounter.
Short Inspirational Quotes #22 – “When I went to school, they asked me what I wanted to be when I grew up.
I wrote down ‘happy.’ They told me I didn’t understand the assignment, and I told them they didn’t understand life.” – John LennonDo what makes you happy. Find out what those things are and make room for them in your life.
Short Inspirational Quotes #23 – “There is no greater agony than bearing an untold story inside you.
” – Maya AngelouThe desire to become who we were meant never goes away, no matter how deep you try to bury the desire.
Just like a submerged beach ball, it will want to shoot to the surface of the water. You can either spend your energy keeping your desires buried, or you can use your energy to release them into the universe and go for them. It’s your choice.
Short Inspirational Quotes #24 – “And, when you want something, all the universe conspires in helping you to achieve it.
”- Paulo CoelhoThere will be movement in your life when you become crystal clear in your goals. Plot your course and accept no alternative.
Short Inspirational Quotes #25 – “If you think you are too small to make a difference, try sleeping with a mosquito.
” – Dalai LamaThe world’s problems overwhelm us. Why fight it when we are just one person? This quote puts everything in perspective.
Short Inspirational Quotes #26 – “Learning never exhausts the mind.” – Leonardo da Vinci<
Develop a lifelong love of learning, and your life will never be the same. Look at obstacles as puzzles that need to be solved, not frustrations.
Find new things to be obsessed with and learn as much as you can about them.
Short Inspirational Quotes #27 – “Isn’t it nice to think that tomorrow is a new day with no mistakes in it yet?
” – L.M. MontgomeryThis quote is perfection, tied up with a sweet bow. Tomorrow starts, and you can begin again with a fresh slate.
Short Inspirational Quotes #28 – “There is only one corner of the universe you can be certain of improving, and that’s your own self.
” – Aldous HuxleyIsn’t it funny how much time and energy we waste trying to change other people? Yet if we used that energy in making the changes we would like to see, our lives would be infinitely better.
I think we have a natural desire to help others. Assisting others is great, unless we neglect ourselves in the process.
Be the example of the person you would like to see in others.
Short Inspirational Quotes #29 – “Honesty is the first chapter in the book of wisdom.” – Thomas Jefferson<
I believe this quote with all my heart. I’ve met dishonest people in my life, and the one thing they all had in common was they hated being alone.
I think it’s because your subconscious knows how wrong it is not to be honest, and when you’re alone with your thoughts, it can be an uncomfortable place to be.
Short Inspirational Quotes #30 – “Try to be a rainbow in someone’s cloud.” – Maya Angelou<
We’ve all had bad days. Sometimes bad years. Who knows if a small act of kindness that you gave someone was the inspiration that person needed to keep going?
You never know what’s going to resonate with someone at the right time. When others are going through cloudy times, ask what they need from you to help them through their journey.
Short Inspirational Quotes #31 – “All children are artists. The problem is how to remain an artist once he grows up.
” – Pablo PicassoHave you moved away from your creative side? Remember the joy you had coloring or making a sand castle?
Do you think the pleasure of creativity went away just because you got older?
Return to a favorite hobby that made your soul sing and weaves you into the fabric of happiness once again.
Short Inspirational Quotes #32 – “Faith is the strength by which a shattered world shall emerge into the light.
” – Helen KellerDoes it get any better than this quote? Have faith and hold on.
Short Inspirational Quotes #33 – “Those who don’t believe in magic will never find it.
” – Roald DahlLook for the magic in life. Create a little bit of magic yourself.
Something as simple as creating an enchanting garden will bring a little fairy dust to both your life and to all those that view it.
Add magical moments to your to-do list, and pretty soon you’ll leave a trail of sparkles wherever you go.
Do a daily review of your life and see if you’re on the right path. Did you do everything in your power to plant seeds today? How can you do better?
These are questions that will condition you to examine yourself and your progress. Instead of analyzing everyone else and what they did, put the focus on yourself and use it as an incentive to change.
Short Inspirational Quotes #35 – “Faith means living with uncertainty – feeling your way through life, letting your heart guide you like a lantern in the dark.
” – Dan MillmanYou don’t know all the steps to get from A to Z, but have faith that the path will appear once you start your journey.
Listen to your heart. It knows the way.
Short Inspirational Quotes #36 – “If you don’t build your dreams, someone will hire you to build theirs.
” – Tony GaskinNow is the time to decide if you want to work for someone else, or are you going to make the changes to be your own boss?
I chose to be my own boss, no matter what the cost. Spending my day doing what I love is super important to me, and this quote gets me through the tough times.
Short Inspirational Quotes #37 – “You can be the ripest; juiciest peach in the world, and there’s still going to be someone that hates peaches.
” – Dita Von TeeseNot everyone likes you, and that’s okay. Your job is not to be the most popular person in the world, it’s to be yourself.
This quote will help heal the hurt that others sometimes inflict on us.
Why did this lady have such an aversion to brown sugar in meatloaf? Who has that kind of time to write their opinion on someone else’s social media channels? These are questions that I don’t need to be answered. It has no bearing on my life. The one thing I know about that recipe is it’s the bomb. One person that doesn’t like sugar in meatloaf isn’t going to change the thousands of others that loved it.
Who are the brown sugar haters that you’ve encountered in your life? Let it go.
Short Inspirational Quotes #38 – “Though nobody can go back and make a new beginning… Anyone can start over and make a new ending.
” – Chico XavierDon’t mourn the past. Your life isn’t over yet. Make it an amazing ending.

“The world is a book and those who do not travel read only one page.” ~ Saint Augustine
The world is a book and those who do not travel read only one page
Let’s kick our list off with some of the more famous travel quotes by famous people. We’ll get to the more obscure as we go down the list. Feel free to pin, download, and print them off to put up around your house for inspiration!
This is definitely one of the best travel quotes of all time, but it certainly reads true. When you travel, the whole world opens up. Travel has helped us to understand the meaning of life and it has helped us become better people. Each time we travel, we see the world with new eyes.
“Not all those who wander are lost” ~ J.R.R. Tolkien
Best travel quotes for getting lost
Throughout our lives, people have thought that because we keep traveling and searching for new things to do, we are not focused. They have often thought we were flaky or unfocused. But travel helped us find our purpose and put focus into our lives. The more we got lost in our travels, the richer our lives became.
“Life is either a daring adventure or nothing at all” ~ Helen Keller
Best travel quotes to live by
If Helen Keller can look at life as a great adventure, what excuse do the rest of us have? Take a chance and live life to the fullest. When we are at our most daring is when we feel the most fulfillment.
“Take only memories, leave only footprints” ~ Chief Seattle
Take only memories
This isn’t just one of those cute travel quotes, it is also a motto everyone should live by in life. We need to give back to this world. People often feel they can take home a trophy, or sneak a piece of stone from a historic site or take something from nature. It isn’t about taking, it is about absorbing the beauty of the world.
Mark Twain’s most Famous of Travel Quotes
Travel opens our minds and heart and makes us better people. One of our favourite travel quotes.
” The real voyage of discovery consists not in seeking new landscapes, but in having new eyes.” ~ Marcel Proust<
The real voyage of discovery
“Travel makes one modest, you see what a tiny place you occupy in the world.” ~ Gustave Flaubert<
Travel makes one modest
Traveling quotes often mention the fact of how travel makes you humble and how life experiences are more important than accumulating things.
Never go on trips with anyone you do ntot love.” ~ Hemmingway
Travel quotes for couples
As a travel couple, this is one of those travel quotes that is close to our hearts. We love traveling together and couldn’t imagine doing it alone.
“Like all great travellers, I have seen more than I remember and remember more than I have seen.
” ~ Benjamin DisraeliTravel quotes to think about
“Traveling – it leaves you speechless, then turns you into a storyteller.” – Ibn Battuta<
Before we started traveling in 2000, I only dreamed of writing for a living. But after our travels, I was so moved by many of our experiences I started writing stories to my friends and family. Travel inspired me to become a storyteller.
Adventure Travel Quotes
No best travel quotes list would be complete without adventure quotes. Travel is an adventure and they go hand in hand. These are some of our favorite quotes about adventure travel that we’ve collected over the years.
“If you think adventure is dangerous, try routine, it’s lethal” ~ Paul Coelho
If you think adventure is dangerous, try routine
Adventure travel quotes are our favourite because we are always pushing our boundaries and when we’re feeling a little afraid or lazy, we always think of this quote.
“Great things never came from comfort zones.”
Great things never came from comfort zones
It’s true! Of all the travel quotes in this list, I really feel that it rings true to life. Even if you are not traveling, you need to step out of your comfort zone. Be it taking on a new project, opening a business, or enrolling in a course. When you do something that scares you a little, you can do something great.
“If you are always trying to be normal, you will never know how amazing you can be.” ~ Maya Angelou<
If you are always trying to be normal
When looking for quotes on adventure travel, this one really stuck out by Maya Angelou. It wasn’t until we started to live a life less ordinary that we understood how much control we had on our lives and just how amazing we could make it.
“Stop worrying about the potholes in the road and enjoy the journey” ~ Babs Hoffman
Stop worrying about the potholes
This doesn’t only have to be one of those quotes on travel alone. Life itself has a lot of potholes. Whether you are traveling or at home working at your job, you should definitely enjoy the journey.
“Fear is only temporary. Regrets last forever.”
Fear is only temporary
Are you wanting to travel the world but afraid to take the next step? The travel quote above says it all. Fear is only temporary, but if you don’t follow your dream, you may regret it forever.
“Life begins at the end of your comfort zone.”
Life begins
This is one of my favorite travel quotes on adventure travel. It’s scary to step out of your comfort zone, but if you do so with proper training and guidance, a whole new life will begin!
“Travel doesn’t become adventure until you leave yourself behind”
Well to me this quote means you have to leave your burdens, your stress, and your preconceived notions behind. To understand travel, you must be open to new possibilities and it will change your life.
“Climb the mountain so you can see the world, not so the world can see you. ~ David McCullough
Climb the mountain
This is one of those quotes about travel that has never rung truer than in today’s society. Everyone is traveling to show off and brag or catch a selfie rather than to have an experience. But its the experience that you’ll remember, not the social share.
“Jobs fill your pocket but adventures fill your soul.” ~ Jamie Lyn Beatty
Adventures fill your soul
It’s true, we all have to do our job and have our careers and that is important. But it is also important to take time to smell the roses and let go of work when you are not in the office.
Funny Travel Quotes
I love funny travel quotes. Sometimes when we get stressed our or frustrated with travel, we need to sit back and laugh about the little things.
“Don’t worry about the world ending today, it’s already tomorrow in Australia.” ~ Charles M.
SchulzWe all have worries every day and more than ever the state of the world is in question. But travel makes you forget your troubles and Charles Schulz couldn’t have said it better. Its the funniest of travel quotes.
“I have found out that there aint’s no surer way to find out whether you like people or hate people than to travel with them.
” ~ Mark TwainWe have always given the advice that if you want to test to see if you are compatible in your relationship, go and travel together for a while. Mark Twain could not be more inspiring quotes <3.. i also do correct. If you can travel with someone you’ll be friends for life! So put these travel quotes to the test and travel with someone

“Drink Heavily with locals whenever possible.” ~ Anthony Bourdain

it quite cheeky.“I always like to go to Washington D.C. It gives me a chance to <
visit my money.” ~ Bob HopeThis one made me chuckle because we were just in Ottawa (Canada’s National Capital) and we made a point of saying “Now we know where our taxes go, look at all the beautiful museums and buildings in this city!” And even though Bob Hope was talking about his home country of the USA, it certainly rings true for anywhere. So, we put it in our best travel quotes list, because everyone can

“Travel is glamorous only in retrospect.” ~ Paul Theroux
be motivating!I love this travel quote so much because it is very true. When we come home from our travels, we always forget the tough times and difficult experiences. We only remember the beautiful things about our travels and the bad stuff fades away. But let me tell you, we’ve had some very unglamorous travels

I am going to update this quote though and say Woman and Man Cannot discover

Unique Travel Quotes
Not all of the best travel quotes are famous. We have dug deep down the rabbit hole of quotes to find some of the more unique quotes about travel out there. Enjoy!
“It’s a big world out there, it would be a shame not to experience it.”
We got this traveling quote from our friend JD of EarthXplorer. Well said JD! There is no better piece of advice. I wish my niece and nephews listened to me when I told them this.
“You can shake the sand from your shoes, but not from your soul.”
Whenever I read this quotation on travel, I always think of the singer Dido. Do you know that song? “I’ve still got sand in my shoes and I can’t shake the thought of you.” When traveling to islands and beaches, this sone always pops into my mind.
Over the years we have had many people ask us, “how did we have the courage to do what we do.” Truthfully, we never thought too much about what could go wrong. When we knew we wanted to cycle Africa or climb a mountain, we didn’t focus on what could go wrong, instead, we focused on the excitement and challenges ahead. So we recommend using this travel quote to help you overcome the “what ifs in life.”
“We wander for distraction, but we travel for fulfillment.” ~ Hilaire Belloc
When we first started traveling, people thought we were running away from things. But in truth, we were finding ourselves and we ran right towards our purpose in life. We have never felt so fulfilled as when we do when we’re traveling.
“It doesn’t matter where you’re going, it’s who you have beside you.”
More great travel quotes for couples
We love traveling together and this is our favorite of all couple travel quotes. While we admire solo travelers we are so grateful to having someone to share special moments together.
“Traveling is not something you’re good at. It’s something you do, like breathing.” ~ Gayle Foreman<
People often say to us “Oh, you must be such great travelers!” and we say, It’s not about being good at something, it is about enjoying what you do. If you enjoyed your travels and if you have a good time, you did a good job!
“All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given us.” ~ J.R.R. Tolkien
As we get older, we have developed a deeper appreciation of the time we have on earth. After spending many years doing something we did NOT love, we realized that time goes by quickly and we have to make the most of our time. Now that we have a passion for our careers and adventures, we understand even more how true this quote is.
“It feels good to be lost in the right direction.”
It feels good to be lost
Dave and I often get lost when traveling and it is usually the times that we take a wrong turn that we have our greatest adventures. Getting lost is part of the fun of travel, so don’t over plan too much when planning your travels.
“Traveling allows you to become so many different versions of yourself.”
When we started traveling we discovered so many new things about ourselves and each other. By stepping out of our comfort zone and trying new things, travel helped us become better people and this quote is definitely true for us.
“Travel has a way of stretching the mind.” ~ Ralph Crawshaw
Travel expands the mind and without having to study or read books or take a course. We learn and grow without even trying when we travel.
“Wandering re-establishes the original harmony which once existed between man and the universe.” ~ Anotole France<
Wow, this is certainly one of those deep travel quotes. But it is true! Humans are connected to the universe, when we get out and really travel, we feel that connection stronger.
“All journeys have secret destinations of which the traveler is unaware.”
How many times have you gone traveling and think our eyes to different ways of thinking and understanding the world. We as travel bloggers love to preach what we have learned to the world, but we also need to live
“A journey is best measured in friends rather than miles.” ~ Tim Cayhill

I have found that travel has helped me become an optimist. The more experiences I have, the more positive my life becomes.
“The biggest adventure you can ever take is to live the life of your dreams” ~ Oprah Winfrey<
One of the best travel quotes by Oprah Winfrey
It was Oprah Winfry that got us hooked on inspiring quotes so how could we not finish off our best travel quotes list with words of wisdom by the Grand Dame of Show Biz, inspiration and philanthropy. And it is definitely a great way to end.
When we took our first travels in 2000, we felt a huge change in ourselves. Our lives were never the same. We never came all the way back, we have left a piece of ourselves around the world and we wouldn’t have it any other way.

120 thoughts on “101 Best Travel Quotes in the World with Pictures”
I was hoping the pandemic will end up so I can free travel again for adventure. Thanks a lot for sharing your collection qoutes.
Thanks for the travel quotes. I'm going to save some and print them out.
My favorite is like a lot of people here.
Life is either a daring adventure or nothing at all. This year has proven that. We can't sit around all day and be happy. Let's make it an adventure.
My choices for the best travel quotes are:
Life is either a daring adventure or nothing at all
Travel makes one modest you see what a tiny place you occupy in the world.
The world is a book and those who do not travel read only one page
Great travel quotes, although I don't get this one…
The real voyage of discovery consists not in seeking new landscapes, but in having new eyes.
Does travel give you new eyes or do you have to have your eyes open before traveling? Hmm, things to think about.
These really are inspirational travel quotes.
I love this one by Anthony Bourdain.
"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."
These are the best travel quotes I've seen! What a list! And thank you for the pictures.
This phrase “Travel makes one modest, you see what a tiny place you occupy in the world.” Really puts it all into perspective. When you travel (really travel, not as a tourist) you understand that you are not the center of the universe. And I agree travel really does make you richer.
Thanks
Wow! What a list of inspirational travel quotes. I'm going to print these off to get motivated that you have it all planned out. But it’s the surprises
and secret destinations
along the way that really stick with you the rest of your
life.People really do make the journey. We may only meet someone for a fleeting moment, but they often
stay in our memories forever.Each day we are grateful that we get to live in this
beautiful world. Not only is the earth’s scenery awe-inspiring, but there is a beauty in
the people, culture and wildlife that we have experienced.I love hearing travel quotes from
my favorite celebrities and people in history. Check these ones

Mountain.” ~ Jack KerouakClimb that damn mountainWe have our
tasks and chores
to do each day, but it is the unique challenges that come with
an adventure that we will remember at the end of our lives. I want to be able to say “I climbed the mountain and I lived well.”Ah, Mae West. I can just hear her saying this quote in that fabulous accent. I am sure she wasn’t talking about
travel, but we can make anything relate to travel quotes.“Two roads diverged in a wood and I – I took the
one less traveled by, and that has made all the difference” ~ Robert FrostTwo roads diverged in a wood and I –“The only people who ever get
anyplace interesting are
the people who get lost.” ~ Henry David Thoreau“There is no moment of delight in any pilgrimage like the beginning of it” ~ Charles Dudley WarnerMy favorite part of traveling is the anticipation. This captures that perfectly.

well traveled Nat Geo photographer:“Ibn Battuta never dwells on what drove him on.Curiosity? Perhaps . . . More likely it was a quest
