A collection of travel quotes from the life of a traveler. I have given credit to those I knew or can remember.

  - Capp

"The beginning is always a good place to start."
  - A munchkin from the Wizard of Oz

"Begin at the beginning and go on till you come to the end, then stop."
  - King of Hearts, Alice in Wonderland

"I wonder if one of the most important steps on our journey is the one in which we throw away the map."
  - Unknown

"Man plans....God laughs."
  - Old Hebrew saying

"When traveling through Kansas always carry a can of tuna fish. If you get lost not only can you eat it but you can stand on the can and see Nebraska."

"Don't just stand out there in the rain, honey. Go home!"
  - Spoken to my former girlfriend

"Only to the white man was nature a 'Wilderness' and only to him was the land infested with 'Wild' animals. To us it was tame... When the very animals of the forest began to flee from his approach, then it was for us that the 'Wild West' began."
  - Luther Standing Bear, Lakota Indian

"Thanks to the interstate highway it is now possible to travel coast to coast without seeing anything."

"I'm basically monogamous, preferring one headache at a time - except for a weekend in Atlantic City with those two sisters."
  - John Corey

"Never ask a man if he wants a bulletproof vest or a pair of mittens. Just make him put them on."
  - Kate Mayfield
