Allx, thanks for the quote from the old song Faraway Places. I remember that as a child that song made me cry because I thought I would never see those places. I was wrong.<BR><BR>

I have two, both by Ilka Chase (actress and writer).<BR><BR>To me travel is a triple delight: anticipation, performance and recollection.<BR><BR>When travelling abroad, if you see something you yearn for, if you can afford it at all, buy it. If you don't you'll regret it all your life.

My current favorite is from the Royal Caribbean Cruise Line commercials, which I believe uses an Iggy Pop/Sex Pistols song. I had never heard it prior to the commercial, but I find that once I hear it, it sticks with me for a while.<BR><BR>Singer: "I've gotta lust for life"<BR>-then the announcer says "What are you waiting for...just Get Out There".<BR><BR>
