Quote by Hernando Cortez

I love to travel, but hate to arrive.

I love to travel, but hate to arrive.

Summary

This quote expresses a paradoxical sentiment about traveling. While the speaker enjoys the experience of being on the move and exploring new places, they find the actual act of arriving at a destination to be less enjoyable. This could reflect a sense of excitement and thrill associated with the journey itself, as it is often filled with new sights, people, and experiences. On the other hand, arriving at a destination might imply the end of this excitement and the return to a more mundane or ordinary experience.

I never felt totally, 100%, patriotically English... I'd seen a lot of the world by an early age - sort of spent a lot of time traveling around Lebanon and I'd seen Babylon, and Damascus, and all sorts of places in the Middle East by the time I was ten. Then we'd return to Ruslip in West London... Done a fair bit of traveling really.

Well, Jeff Buckley for me is one of the greatest singers I've ever heard. And the reason why is he has an amazing range, amazing emotional power in his voice. And the music he put around it also just had this passion and this soul to it and this spirit to it that very few artists have, and he passed at a very young age.
