"Walking is also an ambulation of mind."
Gretel Ehrlich, novelist, poet and essayist (born 1946)
"I am a slow walker, but I never walk backwards."
Abraham Lincoln
"He who would travel happily must travel light."
Antoine de Saint-Exupery, Wind, Sand and Stars (1939)
"There is an intense but simple thrill in setting off in the morning on a mountain trail, knowing that everything you need is on your back. It is a confidence in having left the inessentials behind and of entering a world of natural beauty that has not been violated, where money has no value, and possessions are a dead weight. The person with the fewest possessions is the freest. Thoreau was right."
Paul Theroux, novelist and travel writer, The Happy Isles of Oceania (1992)
