As for Lindbergh, another eminent servant of science, all he proved by his gaudy flight across the Atlantic was that God takes care of those who have been so fortunate as to come into the world foolish. Expressing skepticism that adventure does not necessarily contribute to scientific knowledge.
H. L. Mencken
My father was a really sharp cartoonist and filmmaker. He used to tape-record the family surreptitiously, either while we were driving around or at dinner, and in 1963 he and I made up a story about a brother and a sister, Lisa and Matt, having an adventure out in the woods with animals.
Matt Groening
It matters, it matters very much, what each of us chooses to do. The journey toward self-discovery and self-knowledge is not only life’s highest adventure, but also the only way to transform society from one based on self-centeredness and compulsory compassion to one based on service and mutual responsibility.
Arianna Huffington
Everybody’s saying we’ve got to go 3D or virtual reality or choose your own adventure. But there are other ways forward. I don’t think we’re done with film by a long shot.
Shane Carruth
I’ve long believed that good food, good eating, is all about risk. Whether we’re talking about unpasteurized Stilton, raw oysters or working for organized crime ‘associates,’ food, for me, has always been an adventure
Anthony Bourdain
It seems people are more willing to let other people control their minds now and recreational drug use doesn’t seem to have that same renegade sense of adventure that it once did.
Marc Maron
As long as we keep searching, the answers come.
Joan Baez
The making of a picture ought surely to be a rather fascinating adventure. It is not; it is an endless contention of tawdry egos, some of them powerful, almost all of them vociferous, and almost none of them capable of anything much more creative than credit-stealing and self-promotion.
Raymond Chandler
Knowledge is an unending adventure at the edge of uncertainty.
Jacob Bronowski
Adventures are what happens when an event is flawed, a mark of imperfection.
Kij Johnson
Ruy-Sanchez’s works of fiction are always amazing: adventure, poetry and intelligence in a new geometry of words… His writing has nerve and agility, his intelligence is sharp without being cruel, his mood is sympathetic without complicity.
Octavio Paz
Infectious Disease is one of the few genuine adventures left in the world.
Hans Zinsser
An inconvenience is an adventure wrongly considered.
Gilbert K. Chesterton
Audacity, and again, audacity, and always audacity.
Georges Danton
Under cover of her silence he pressed her arm closely to his side; and, as they stood at the hotel door, he felt that they had escaped from their lives and duties, escaped from home and friends and run away together with wild and radiant hearts to a new adventure.
James Joyce
Kim Newman brings Dracula back home in the granddaddy of all vampire adventures. Anno Dracula couldn’t be more fun if Bram Stoker had scripted it for Hammer. It’s a beautifully constructed Gothic epic that knocks almost every other vampire novel out for the count.
Christopher Fowler
Each day is a start of a new adventure, and I eagerly look forward to today.
Louise Hay
Attitude is the difference between ordeal and adventure
Bob Bitchin
Adventure is the vitaminizing element in histories both individual and social.
William Bolitho
To travel is to take a journey into yourself.

Would you tell me, please, which way I ought to go from here?” “That depends a good deal on where you want to get to.” “I don’t much care where –” “Then it doesn’t matter which way you go.
Lewis Carroll
Hope and belief. I’d always wanted hope, but never believed that I could have such an adventure on my own. That I could own it. And love it. But it happened.
Rachel Cohn
This is a brief life, but in its brevity it offers us some splendid moments, some meaningful adventures.
Rudyard Kipling
A garden should be in a constant state of fluid change, expansion, experiment, adventure; above all it should be an inquisitive, loving, but self-critical journey on the part of its owner.
H. E. Bates
Thousands of tired, nerve-shaken, over-civilized people are beginning to find out that going to the mountains is going home; that wildness is a necessity.
John Muir
Art flourishes where there is a sense of adventure, a sense of nothing having been done before, of complete freedom to experiment.
Alfred North Whitehead
Do not follow where the path may lead.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
When you start on a new film, no matter how many you’ve done before that, I think I’ve done close to 80 films, but it’s always kind of a fun adventure.
Howard Shore
Keep trying. Stay humble, Trust your instincts. Most importantly, act. When you come to a fork in the road, take it.
Yogi Berra
The reason most people never reach their goals is that they don’t define them, learn about them, or even seriously consider them as believable or achievable. Winners can tell you where they are going, what they plan to do along the way, and who will be sharing the adventure with them.
Denis Waitley
I remember, May 1944: I was 15-and-a-half, and I was thrown into a haunted universe where the story of the human adventure seemed to swing irrevocably between horror and malediction.
Elie Wiesel
Lots of kids in books are only-child orphans, but I think it’s fun to have family as part of the adventure, to have familial love be as important as romantic love, and to show that love can go through fire and darkness – not unchanged, because experiences like that change everyone – but never faltering
Sarah Rees Brennan
No one from the beginning of time has had security.
Eleanor Roosevelt
I stay subjective because that’s what I do. That’s one of my abilities. I don’t need to watch it because I’ve had the adventure. I don’t do low-budget acting. I do the same acting, whether I’m in a Jim Cameron or not. I always try to do good work. There’s no snobbery in there
Lance Henriksen
I am not the same having seen the moon shine on the other side of the world. Mary
Mary Anne Radmacher

William Goldman

Roberto Assagioli
Life is an adventure – Savor every instant!
Edward Boyden
Our sense of calling should be like an unfolding epicВ adventure.
Christine Caine
The great thing about adventure, when told correctly, is it is one of the few genres that everybody in the family can watch together. Our television has become so targeted, it’s so specific that there’s literally nothing else on television that grandparents are watching with their grandkids, and they’re both entertained.
Dean Devlin
I wrote for magazines. I wrote adventure stuff, I wrote for the ‘National Enquirer,’ I wrote advertising copy for cemeteries.
Walter Dean Myers
I’d like to read a book sometime. I’ve never read a book before. That’d be an adventure. I understand they have pages and everything. Yeah, I’ve got to do that sometime.
Frank Oz
Adventure is the invitation to common people to become uncommon.

I love being a part of storytelling, so whether I’m getting to do that on Survivor, or do it through kids’ adventure books, or directing a movie, it’s all sort of the same: Once Upon a Time…
Jeff Probst
We’re not afraid of risking what was our success yesterday in order to explore some new field. We’re adventurous. We like the challenge of unknown territory, unknown artistic field, and that’s what stimulates us.
Guy Laliberte
I crave for adventure. It makes me feel alive and excited. It’s a constant tussle between what you want to do and other parameters that aren’t in your hands.
Sushant Singh Rajput
The essence of spirituality is the duty to live to its full the glorious destiny of being human. The purpose of religion should be to empower all people in this adventure of living with dignity and fulfilment.
Agnivesh

Paddy McGuinness
I’m on this extraordinary adventure, and if I have no one to talk to at the end of the night, I feel lonely.
Katy Perry
The best part of my job is being able to travel to places to investigate powerful stories, many of which contains unsolved mysteries and deaths. To me as a documentarian and paranormal investigator, this puts the adventure in my life and meaning to my job.
Zak Bagans
The conquest of fear yields the courage of life. That is the cardinal initiation of every heroic adventure– fearlessness and achievement.
Joseph Campbell
…the incontestable truth is that America has been built up by optimists, not by pessimists, but by men possessing courage, confidence in the nation’s destiny, by men willing to adventure, to shoulder risks terrifying to the timid.
B. C. Forbes
I didn’t like the person I was growing up to become. I needed to find myself and my identity. And for me, getting out of my comfort zone, getting away from the people I grew up with, and finding adventure, that was my odyssey, and it was the best decision I ever made.
Jonny Kim
America was still a land of wonder. The ancient spell still hung unbroken over the wild, vast world of mystery beyond the sea,-a land of romance, adventure, and gold.
Francis Parkman
A good traveler has no fixed plans, and is not intent on arriving.
Laozi
It was my father who instilled the “never say no” attitude I carry around with me today, and who instilled in me a sense of wonder, always taking us on adventures in the car, never telling us the destination.
Marlee Matlin
It’s an adventure. I mean I spent a lot of time in the Himalayas and over the years have come to know them very well. I would say most important is the first sense you have in a place like that, and that is the sense of being on an adventure.
Joe Rohde
God, I am trying to recover my faith. Please don’t abandon me in the middle of this adventure, I prayed, pushing my fears aside.
Paulo Coelho
I will say that as I get older and calmer and quieter in my own self, the one quality in a woman that I find more and more attractive is kindness. A sense of adventure and humor is important too, but I truly find kindness and consideration for others to be the most attractive thing in anyone.
Colin Farrell
Much early alchemy seems to have been adventure. You heated and mixed and burnt and pounded and to see what would happen. An adventure might suggest an hypothesis that can subsequently be tested, but adventure is prior to theory.
Ian Hacking
If you’re looking for an adventure, an intellectual challenge, and a close-knit community of professionals, consider land surveying! It’s not for everyone, and I’d recommend working as a surveyor’s assistant or office staff before committing to the necessary schooling.
Mark Mason
Every judgment teeters on the brink of error. To claim absolute knowledge is to become monstrous. Knowledge is an unending adventure at the edge of uncertainty.
Frank Herbert
I could tell you my adventures—beginning from this morning,” said Alice a little timidly; “but it’s no use going back to yesterday, because I was a different person then.
Lewis Carroll
I’ve done a lot of living and a lot of adventuring and I think that’s very healthy, ya know. And I think everybody should adventure life ‘cos that’s what life is, it’s for adventuring. You gotta know what you wanna do with your life. And you gotta know when you have something special and you don’t wanna blow it.
Joey Ramone
The good author is he who contemplates without marked joy or excessive sorrow the adventures of his soul amongst criticisms.
Joseph Conrad
I have this feeling that life is a spiritual adventure, and I want to make mine in the sky.
Jerrie Cobb
Let’s go again to Niag’ra,
This time we’ll look at the Fall.
Let’s leave our hut, Dear,
Get out of our rut, Dear,
Let’s get away from it all.
Tom Adair
The call to adventure signifies that destiny has summoned the hero.
Joseph Campbell
When I was 26, I got pregnant. I decided to have the baby because I accept everything in life as an adventure. I accept life. I couldn’t see why you would not accept it.
Vicky Krieps
I loved Julia Louis-Dreyfus’s show ‘The New Adventures of Old Christine.’ That made me laugh out loud. She’s like Lucille Ball. She’s brilliant.
Helen Hunt
While every new fantasy author is hailed as unique, new, and different, Brandon Sanderson’s ELANTRIS does indeed provide an absorbing adventure in a unique, different, and well-thought-out fantasy world, with a few nifty twists as well.
L.E. Modesitt Jr.
The philharmonic became such a journey and adventure in my life, and a deeply satisfying thing.
Esa-Pekka Salonen
Working with Danny Thomas was truly an adventure every week. Danny didn’t always say the words as they appeared in the script. I learned more by osmosis than by sitting down together. He was a force to be reckoned with: an explorer of television.
Angela Cartwright
Expedition EVEREST adds a new dimension to our storytelling in Disney’s Animal Kingdom. It’s a thrilling adventure themed to the folklore of the mysterious yeti.
Joe Rohde
Equipped with his five senses, man explores the universe around him and calls the adventure Science.
Edwin Powell Hubble
There is a point when facing the unknown stops being a longed-for adventure and becomes a terrifying reality.
Storm Constantine
Nobody supports me at the expense of his own adventure. Then I get bitter: I am not loved enough to be supported. That I am not a burden has to compensate for the sad envy when I look at women loved enough to be supported. Even now China wraps double binds around my feet.
Maxine
Nothing uniquely bad has happened to me in my personal life, but all the regular little bad things have accumulated to make me a neurotic person. And these adventures are my way of trying to make sense of that.
Jon Ronson
Child actors come off as work being their life and doing it 24/7, but I still have those days where it’s totally, like, whatever: shopping, movies, adventures.
Hailee Steinfeld
As the show’s executive producer, I envisioned something akin to “Gilligan’s Island” meets Lord of the Flies meets Ten Little Indians mets “The Real World.” “Survivor” marks a return to a core element of adventure: staying alive.
Mark Burnett
The great achievements of the past were the adventures of the past. Only the adventurous can understand the greatness of the past.
Alfred North Whitehead
It is in general the unexplored that attracts us.
Murasaki Shikibu
There are so many ways in which we learn about life and the self. Each day opens paths to this exploration. For many of us, books play a major role in that adventure

Start today to follow your heart.
Map out your own journey.
Have the adventure of a lifetime.
Melody Beattie
War is always an adventure to those who’ve never seen it.
Anthony Ryan
Childhood is usually identified with fantasy, adventure, and dreaming. But mine didn’t offer a lot of hope. I could read my future in my palm. Everything foretold: “You have no future!” A person must be very strong to keep going without hope.
Luljeta Lleshanaku
Every day is an adventure.
Joseph B. Wirthlin
For some, excavating the past isn’t an adventure, it’s more akin to tearing a Band-Aid off an open wound.
Raquel Cepeda
Against my will, in the course of my travels, the belief that everything worth knowing was known at Cambridge gradually wore off. In this respect my travels were very useful to me.
Bertrand Russell
It’s been the most astonishing year because I’ve been having a marvelous adventure, and yet I kind of sympathize with people who have to live in exile, because I’ve so missed England.
Richard Griffiths
I am the opposite of boring, but I’m a little reckless, and I’m not against taking risks, and I think I’m always down for an adventure.
Claire Holt
Do you reckon Tom Sawyer was satisfied after all them adventures?
Mark Twain
I love adventure, so I’m excited to be working on something new and making the transition from reality show contestant to host.
Rob Mariano
Public life is regarded as the crown of a career, and to young men it is the worthiest ambition. Politics is still the greatest and the most honorable adventure.
Pat Riley
Each child is an adventure into a better life – an opportunity to change the old pattern and make it new.
Hubert H. Humphrey
Then, one day, when you least expect it, the great adventure finds you.
Ewan McGregor
Pilots are drawn to flying because it’s a perfect combination of science, romance and adventure.
Charles Lindbergh
How indifferent are men to this carpenter or that fisherman, who has no word to speak of adventure or of wealth, but has only the word of God to proclaim, and has no credentials but that he comes in the name of the Lord.
Edward Everett Hale
My life and career is my own adventure.
Dario Argento
The only competition worthy of a wise man is with himself.
Washington Allston
I love the adventure of telling all types of stories and trying to conquer each one.
Jon M. Chu
Life moves pretty fast. If you don’t stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
John Hughes
An egg is always an adventure; the next one may be different.
Oscar Wilde
The appetite for adventure and risk is not exclusive to young Christians. In face, it seems to be a fundamental yearning, knitted into the fabric of the human soul.
Alan Hirsch
Of all the characters I’ve played, I relate the most to Isabel in Hugo. She’s so adventurous and fun. She just loves reading books and those are her adventures. Isabel is a heightened version of my personality.
Chloe Grace Moretz
There are few things more pathetic than those who have lost their curiosity and sense of adventure, and who no longer care to learn.
Gordon B. Hinckley
Life is one of Gods greatest Journeys, But Death is the next great Adventure.
Chris Cole
The traveling and adventure always lift my spirits soaring with exhilaration.
Emile Hirsch
It seems to me that you won’t have had a proper series of adventures, unless you’ve gone through thick and thin.
Avi
What would it be like to live in a library of melted books. With sentences streaming over the floor and all the punctuation settled to the bottom as a residue. It would be confusing. Unforgivable. A great adventure.
Anne Carson
Right now, I’m hankering for new adventures… Ninety percent of the time I’m having romantic-comedy fantasies in which I’m wearing little pencil skirts and hurrying down to the subway.
Mindy Kaling
You wouldn’t want any creative process to lose its sense of fun and adventure, but that doesn’t mean you can’t take it seriously as well.
Charles de Lint
And if tonight my soul may find her peace in sleep, and sink in good oblivion, and in the morning wake like a new-opened flower then I have been dipped again in God, and new-created.
D. H. Lawrence
Few places in this world are more dangerous than home. Fear not, therefore, to try the mountain passes. They will kill care, save you from deadly apathy, set you free, and call forth every faculty into vigorous, enthusiastic action.
John Muir
If I thought I knew what was going to happen, it wouldn’t be worth doing. The challenge is how joyfully, with what sense of fun and adventure and playfulness, we will greet it. We don’t have to look for what the next thing will be. If experience is any judge, it’ll come flowing toward us like a river.
Stephen Colbert
Would you like an adventure now, or would you like to have your tea first?
James M. Barrie
What I have learned from my own experience is that the most important ingredients in a child’s education are curiosity, interest, imagination, and a sense of the adventure of life.
Eleanor Roosevelt
I went to Alaska as a young man just looking for adventure. And like so many of us in the ’70s, we found it.
Tom Bodett
Real adventure is defined best as a journey from which you may not come back alive, and certainly not as the same person.
Yvon Chouinard
I can’t imagine myself doing something like ‘Narnia’ again. I would love to do something with Ridley Scott, you know, some action/adventure or something like that. But I’d also love to do a dramatic piece. It’s really just whatever you read and take to.
William Moseley
My parents taught me honesty, truth, compassion, kindness and how to care for people. Also, they encouraged me to take risks, to boldly go. They taught me that the greatest danger in life is not taking the adventure.
Brian Blessed
To a dog, motoring isn’t just a way of getting from here to there, it’s also a thrill and an adventure. The mere jingle of car keys is enough to send most any dog into a whimpering, tail-wagging frenzy.
Jon Winokur
When I began work on my first book, The River of Doubt, which tells the story of Theodore Roosevelts 1914 descent of an unmapped river in the Amazon rainforest, I thought of it as a tale of adventure, exploration and extraordinary courage.
Candice Millard
I want my job to include a little adventure, a little more of a heightened reality than what I’m actually living.
Nathan Fillion
I don’t remember ever feeling lonely; in fact, on the rare occasions when I met other children I found their games and their talk far less interesting than the adventures and dialogues I read in my books.
Alberto Manguel
An adventure is never an adventure when it happens. An adventure is simply physical and emotional discomfort recollected in tranquility.
Tim Cahill
Life shrinks or expands in proportion to one’s courage.
Anais Nin
If you hate what you’re seeing, you call it sex and violence. If you like it, you call it “romance and adventure.”
Joe Bob Briggs
A taste for adventure is by no means a masculine monopoly.
Lloyd Alexander
To be modern is to find ourselves in an environment that promises us adventure, power, joy, growth, transformation of ourselves and the world – and at the same time that threatens to destroy everything we have, everything we know, everything we are.
Marshall Berman
Every time that I’m challenged with a film I think that I haven’t learned anything, that every film is different and that every thing that I have learned is useless in this new adventure.
Alejandro Gonzalez Inarritu
If you are curious as to what your future may hold, you can look into a mirror. What is reflecting back? Does a sparkle in your eyes indicate excitement about new adventures and opportunities? Does a smile on your lips portray an inner happiness and abundant goodwill towards others?
John Templeton
I feel that I am writing out of a full life. I am a rich man, rich in men known, in adventures had. I am rich with living.
Sherwood Anderson
We got offers to make sequels to both ‘Shaun of the Dead’ and ‘Hot Fuzz,’ and they never really interested us because we like having these endings where it seems very final but could hint at some kind of future adventure that you’ll never see.
Edgar Wright
The dance, just as the performance of the actor, is kinesthetic art, art of the muscle sense. The awareness of tension and relaxation within his own body, the sense of balance that distinguishes the proud stability of the vertical from the risky adventures of thrusting and falling–these are the tools of the dancer.
Rudolf Arnheim
The soul’s first adventure is the fight between two ideas: the wish to return to earth in a human form, and the desire to feel the freedom of having no form.
Paramahansa Yogananda
When Steampunk meets adventure and adventure meets comedy and comedy meets ingenuity and ingenuity meets charm and charm meets wonder and wonder meets pleasure the result is a Triumph. Dr Grordbort is the future. And the past. Which makes an ideal present.
Stephen Fry
I have always looked on my businesses not just as money-making machines, but as adventures that can, I hope, make people better off.
Richard Branson
I put forward as a general definition of civilization, that a civilized society is exhibiting the five qualities of Truth, Beauty, Adventure, Art, Peace.
Alfred North Whitehead
The greatest adventure that can happen to a human being is the movement from mind to no-mind, the movement from personality to individuality. The no-mind has an individuality: the mind is social.
Rajneesh
Experiment has a stimulus which withers its fear.
Emily Dickinson
Made in the perfect image of a perfect relationship, we are relational to the core of our beings and filled with a desire for transcendent purpose. We long to be an irreplaceable part of a shared adventure.
Stasi Eldredge
One of the best ways to convince someone is to use a telling example, a story, a narrative. When Steve Jobs announced a new product, he told a story, exzlaining how a product would change the world as we know it. He turned Apple into a story whose challenges and adventures you want to hear about.
Kabir Sehgal
It’s time to say goodbye, but I think goodbyes are sad and I’d much rather say hello. Hello to a new adventure.
Ernie Harwell
In European and American society, many pundits started to lament the death of literature; looking at youth who were getting more and more attracted to sitcoms – hard, adventure films and said, our children are no longer reading, or else they’re reading cartoons.
Wole Soyinka
There exists within everyone a grand passion, an outlandish thirst for adventure, a desire to live boldly and vividly through the journey of life.
Kurt Hahn
To me, the kitchen is a place of adventure and entirely fun, not drudgery. I can’t think of anything better to do with family and friends than to be together to create something.
Ted Allen
Every man ought to be inquisitive through every hour of his great adventure down to the day when he shall no longer cast a shadow in the sun. For if he dies without a question in his heart, what excuse is there for his continuance?
Frank Moore Colby
Agent Coulson takes the work very seriously. He certainly has some fun with Spider-Man and the others, but he takes each of their tasks, including when they get involved with the drama club, way too seriously. The adventures that they come up with are really exciting.
Clark Gregg
It’s not the destination but the adventure along the way.
Travis Rice
I was young, out of the military service in Israel. I was looking for a big adventure, and I was searching for it.
Yossi Ghinsberg
Half the fun of the travel is the esthetic of lostness.
Ray Bradbury
What if I don’t like adventure?
Then cultivate a taste for it. Take a chance. That’s how you grow.
Wally Lamb
Two separate beings, in different circumstances, face to face in freedom and seeking justification of their existence through one another, will always live an adventure full of risk and promise.” (p. 248)
Simone de Beauvoir
Writing a book is an adventure.
Winston Churchill
Life is an adventure or nothing
Helen Keller
But I did ‘Bill & Ted’s Excellent Adventure.’ They made a cereal out of it, so once you’ve had a cereal, it doesn’t get much more surreal than that. Surreal cereal.
Keanu Reeves
I have never seen a film being as influenced by the incidents during its making as Highway. The adventures of our north Indian road journey has many stories to tell.
Imtiaz Ali
Learning should be a joy and full of excitement. It is life’s greatest adventure; it is an illustrated excursion into the minds of the noble and the learned.
Taylor Caldwell
Ever since I was nine years old and I watched Neil and Buzz walk on the moon, I have felt passionately that this is an interesting human adventure. This is one of the things we’re doing that is really fundamentally important, as we leave our home planet, but also exciting.
Chris Hadfield
I think back when I was kind of a crappy writer, I really did know my time was better spent working and having adventures and seeing the world.
Bonnie Jo Campbell
Libraries are places that house our dreams, our fantasies, our thirst for adventure.
Nicholas Sparks
See your life as a giant adventure. Keep pushing the envelope, and remember that every dream starts off small.
Robin Sharma
For me… it was always about the challenge of making this voyage… It was always a calculated risk, but life is a risk.
Jessica Watson
Nothing is really ‘safe’.
Bam Margera
Being on the road is like a campout. I’m the only girl. The guys in my band are like my big brothers. It’s definitely an adventure, but it can be a nomadic lifestyle.
Kate Voegele
I’ve always fantasized about being on TV. And I was. Then I fantasized about being in the movies. What could be better than captain of a space ship? I get to ride horses, shoot guns, have adventures.
Nathan Fillion
In a democracy in the 20th and 21st century, if you can’t base your fiction upon ordinary people and the issues that engage them, then you are reduced to writing about spectacular unreal people. You know, James Bond or something, and you cook up adventures.
John Updike
Why should men be allowed to strut under the privilege of their life adventures, wearing them like a breast full of medals, while women went all gray and silent beneath the weight of theirs?
Carol Shields
My father being an outdoors person, he used to take us on quite a few adventures thorugh the wild areas down there, introducing us to alligators and rattlesnakes and all the trees and plants.
Jim Fowler
I thought I had finished with romantic adventures, but half-way through life and well past the age for losing one’s heart, I was suddenly swept off my feet by a new love, a passionate, tyrannical, all-absorbing emotion: the love of a garden.
Patience Strong
To my mind, the greatest reward and luxury of travel is to be able to experience everyday things as if for the first time, to be in a position in which almost nothing is so familiar it is taken for granted.
Bill Bryson
We live in a wonderful world that is full of beauty, charm and adventure. There is no end to the adventures that we can have if only we seek them with our eyes open.
Jawaharlal Nehru
Many will call me an adventurer – and that I am, only one of a different sort: one of those who risks his skin to prove his truths.
Che Guevara
I felt proud that the baby’s first real adventure should be as a protest against the insanity of world annihilation. Already a certain percentage of unborn children are doomed by fallout, and no one knows the cumulative effects of what is already poisoning the air and sea.
Sylvia Plath
You try to bring a smile to people’s faces, and try to tell people of the adventure you’ve been on, the success you’ve had and what it takes.
Mike Phelan
Anytime I feel lost, I pull out a map and stare. I stare until I have reminded myself that life is a giant adventure, so much to do, to see.
Angelina Jolie
You can handle just about anything that comes at you out on the road with a believable grin, common sense and whiskey.
Bill Murray
I am convinced that it is not the fear of death, of our lives ending, that haunts our sleep so much as the fear that as far as the world is concerned, we might as well never have lived.
Harold S. Kushner
Liberalism isn’t quite as liberal as it pretends to be. And it goes through my adventures with the FBI during the anti-war period and the civil rights period.
Nat Hentoff
The rule is not written anywhere, it’s not etched in any  –  but, I mean, that’s the prevailing attitude of this entire society. Don’t have an adventure.
Bob Weir
What are you going to do now? I just wrapped a remake of The Poseidon Adventure .. Lady in the Water.
Wolfgang Petersen
Certainly, travel is more than the seeing of sights; it is a change that goes on, deep and permanent, in the ideas of living.
Mary Ritter Beard
Not only do we have the handsomest voice cast out there, along with the very lovely Black Widow, we also have an incredible voice cast, in terms of being able to handle the drama, the fun, the excitement and the promise that Marvel brings to every single one of our projects, which is epic adventure on the human spirit.
Jeph Loeb
Adventure, with all its requisite danger and wildness, is a deeply spiritual longing written into the soul of man.
John Eldredge
I love adventures so to me, the best part is you never know what’s going to happen next.
Colin Munroe
There’s no such thing as adventure. There’s no such thing as romance. There’s only trouble and desire.
Hal Hartley
There is nothing like a comfortable adventure to put people in a good humor. . .
Peter Mayle
The adrenaline and stress of an adventure are better than a thousand peaceful days.
Paulo Coelho
Who knows, I have always lived one day at a time. Probably more adventure and excitement.
Rob Mariano
If a man devotes himself to the instructions of his own unconscious, it can bestow this gift [of renewal], so that suddenly life, which has been stale and dull, turns into a rich unending inner adventure, full of creative possibilities
Marie-Louise von Franz
I think because I have great difficulty saying the word, ‘no,’ almost every day’s a different adventure.
Richard Branson
I guess Satan was the first superhero […] In his first adventure, he took the form of a snake to free two prisoners being held naked in a Third World jungle prison by an all-powerful megalomaniac. At the same time, he broadened their diet and introduced them to their own sexuality.
Joe Hill
Kids are curious, and if you don’t lose that, then everything is an adventure.
Diane Greene
Adventure! People talked about the idea as if it were something worthwhile, rather than a mess of bad food, no sleep and strange people inexplicably trying to stick pointed objects in bits of you.
Terry Pratchett
I like to set myself a new adventure challenge at least once or twice a year because I love that side of my life. I love getting fit and training for it.
Richard Branson
I’m not sure I would have ever started to draw, let alone write, if my childhood hadn’t been so happy. It was a mixture of comfort and adventure. An excellent mixture!
Tove Jansson
Sometimes just being on a beach with my loved ones is all the adventure I need. I am a happy camper and continue to be a citizen of the world. I have yet to discover other cultures, other peoples’ dreams and treasures. I will always be a traveler who is discovering beautiful Gaia.
Guy Laliberte
We should not allow it to be believed that all scientific progress can be reduced to mechanisms, machines, gearings, even though such machinery also has its beauty. Neither do I believe that the spirit of adventure runs any risk of disappearing in our world.
Marie Curie
That makes sense, I suppose. But for me, reading is an adventure. It makes me an armchair traveler and takes me places I shall never be able to go.
Laura Lee
While the body sleeps our soul or spirit is having many adventures. It may travel to the spirit realm to meet with master teachers and guides to obtain advice or to learn lessons. It also may travel to other parts of our world or even venture outward to other worlds and dimensions.
Dolores Cannon
Al Plastino helped redefine Superman in the 1950s. His work on Supermans Girlfriend, Lois Lane, Adventure Comics and pretty much any title in the Superman family will be fondly remembered for years to come. He will be missed.
Jim Lee
I thought I was a pretty good writer, but I didn’t have anything to write about. I wanted to go out in the world, have some adventures and then write about them.
Shane Smith
The adventure of the hero is the adventure of being alive
Joseph Campbell
I certainly have played women who have a pioneer spirit and longing for adventure.
Kate Baldwin
In Hawaii, if you’re invited to dinner, it’s assumed that the children are invited as well. On the islands, no one treats children like they’re not part of the conversation. People talk to children as people and include them in adventures and conversations.
Gabrielle Reece
Writing is a marvelous adventure and very labor-intensive: those words run away and try to escape. They are very difficult to capture.
Eduardo Galeano
Life is an adventure of passion, risk, danger, laughter, beauty, love; a burning curiosity to go with the action to see what it is all about, to go search for a pattern of meaning, to burn one’s bridges because you’re never going to go back anyway, and to live to the end.
Saul Alinsky
All really great flying adventures begin at dawn.
Stephen Coonts
Life is a thing that mutates without warning, not always in enviable ways. All part of the improbable adventure of being alive, of being a brainy biped with giant dreams on a crazy blue planet.
Diane Ackerman
In the end, it’s not the years in your life that count. It’s the life in your years.
Abraham Lincoln
No coward soul is mine.
Emily Bronte
Solitude lies at the lowest depth of the human condition. Man is the only being who feels himself to be alone and the only one who is searching for the Other.
Octavio Paz
I feel hurt or attacked, jealousy or fear, what works for me is thinking of life as an adventure. This way, I remember that all these feelings or situations are part of a greater whole and that they need to be there to make life exactly what it is.
Richard Brancatisano
If you do not know where you are going, every road will get you nowhere
Henry A. Kissinger
That was quite an adventure, stopping at a different house each night, seeing new country,.
Jack Williamson
Our preferences for stability and security blind us to the opportunities for adventure when they present themselves.
Alan Hirsch
I think it is better for all people to live on, to look forward to the next stage (after death), as if he had to spend centuries, then he lives properly… looking forward to the great adventure ahead, then he lives!
Carl Jung
Everyone is an entrepreneur. The only skills you need to be an entrepreneur: an ability to fail, an ability to have ideas, to sell those ideas, to execute on those ideas, and to be persistent so even as you fail you learn and move onto the next adventure.
James Altucher
Life is an adventure, it’s not a package tour.
Eckhart Tolle
At some point, your memories, your stories, your adventures, will be the only things you’ll have left.

Disneyland is often called a magic kingdom because it combines fantasy and history, adventure and learning, together with every variety of recreation and fun designed to appeal to everyone.
Walt Disney
The True Artist has the planet for his pedestal; the adventurer, after years of strife, has nothing broader than his shoes.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
In true-life dramas, you have to do so much research. It’s a big responsibility to make sure things are as correct as possible. In ‘Robin Hood’, you have more artistic license – it’s all action, adventure and reaction. This gives everyone a chance to make their characters their own and to make them believable.
Joanne Froggatt
Don’t ask for security, ask for adventure
Jim Rohn
Every exit is an entry somewhere else.
Tom Stoppard
The whole object of travel is not to set foot on foreign land; it is at last to set foot on one’s own country as a foreign land.
Gilbert K. Chesterton
The words that reverberate for us at the confines of this long adventure of rebellion are not formulas for optimism, for which we have no possible use in the extremities of our unhappiness, but words of courage and intelligence which, on the shores of the eternal seas, even have the qualities of virtue.
Albert Camus
The invisible bond that gives the baby rein to discover his place in the world also brings the creeping baby back to home base….In this way he recharges himself. He refuels on the loving energies that flow to him from his mother. Then he’s off for another foray of adventure and exploration.
Louise J. Kaplan
Expand the definition of ‘reading’ to include non-fiction, humor, graphic novels, magazines, action adventure, and, yes, even websites. It’s the pleasure of reading that counts; the focus will naturally broaden. A boy won’t read shark books forever.
Jon Scieszka
Broad, wholesome, charitable views .. can not be acquired by vegetating in one’s little corner of the earth.
Mark Twain
We know that their adventures are childish. They themselves are fools. They are ready to kill or be killed over a card-game in which an opponent – or they themselves – was cheating. Yet, thanks to such fellows, tragedies are possible.
Jean Genet
This grand show is eternal. It is always sunrise somewhere; the dew is never dried all at once; a shower is forever falling; vapor is ever rising. Eternal sunrise, eternal dawn and gloaming, on sea and continents and islands, each in its turn, as the round earth rolls.
John Muir
The true adventurer goes forth aimless and uncalculating to meet and greet unknown fate.
O. Henry
If you don t know where you are, a map won’t help.

Christopher McCandless
When you are feeling too dull and too domesticated get on a horse, sit tall in the saddle, and for a moment live in a world that feels like risk and adventure.
Julia Cameron
When I started doing chemistry, I did it the way I fished – for the excitement, the discovery, the adventure, for going after the most elusive catch imaginable in uncharted seas.
Karl Barry Sharpless
But settled things were enemies to me and soon lost their newness and color. The unknown called.
Agnes Smedley
If I’m riding my bike I just replay the same scenarios over and over in my head, like I haven’t had a new mental adventure since high school. So that’s what I like about books on tape, so my mind can’t wander anywhere.
David Sedaris
Like mighty eagle soaring light. O’er antelopes on Alpine height. The anchor heaves, the ship swings free, The sails swell full. To sea, to sea!
Thomas Lovell Beddoes
Liberalism regards life as an adventure in which we must take risks in new situation, in which there is no guarantee that the new will always be the good or the true, in which progress is a precarious achievement rather than inevitability.
Morris Raphael Cohen
It is only in adventure that some people succeed in knowing themselves – in finding themselves.
Andre Gide
Happiness is the best adventure on earth.
Sir David Baird, 1st Baronet
going into a cave might be like going inside one’s own mind, crawling around in the pitch-black, nook-and-crannied labyrinth of the human psyche.
Barbara Hurd
When we have completed all the journeys and adventures through our variety of lives we are supposed to return to the creator with our accumulation of knowledge. It is then absorbed. In this way we are considered cells in the body of God.
Dolores Cannon
A life of writing books is a trying adventure in which you cannot find out where you are unless you lose your way.
Philip Roth
We’re just inviting adventure into our life, and adventure carries a little baggage.
Bob Weir
I’m the dad, the cleanup guy. I deal with the bigger messes. But I also provide more adventures and excitement. It works out.
Laird Hamilton
Give sacrificially. We don’t like risky faith. We like to have our safety net below us. But we miss the adventure of seeing God provide when we’ve really stretched ourselves in giving.
Randy Alcorn
Juvenile crime is not naturally born in the boy, but is largely due either to the spirit of adventure that is in him, to his own stupidity, or to his lack of discipline, according to the nature of the individual.
Robert Baden-Powell
To travel is to live.
Hans Christian Andersen
Youth is the spirit of adventure and awakening. It is a time of physical emerging when the body attains the vigor and good health that may ignore the caution of temperance. Youth is a period of timelessness when the horizons of age seem too distant to be noticed.
Ezra Taft Benson
The moment somebody says “this is very risky” is the moment it becomes attractive to me.
Kate Capshaw
My earliest professional musical experiences were really as a session player, and every day was an adventure. Three sessions a day, every day, and you never knew who you would be working with until you arrived at the studio.
Rick Wakeman
We live in a wonderful world that is full of beauty, charm and adventure.
Jawaharlal Nehru
I always loved action adventure. It is something I always wanted to do.
Jon M. Chu
When we find our core certainty within, then we no longer look for certainty outside.
The unfathomable nature of the ever-changing world ceases
to be a source of anxiety and instead is a source of joy and adventure.
Deepak Chopra
For my brother and me, there would be no ‘Field of Dreams’-like playing catch, no nature lessons with our old man. Instead, it would be a darkened theater, the projector light coming on, and a new adventure unfolding.
Bob Weinstein
Adventure is something out of the usual pattern, a point at which you cannot avoid confronting the unknown, so that you have to dig inside yourself to find the courage and resources to deal with what may lie ahead, and to succeed.
Bertrand Piccard
And the day came when the risk to remain tight in a bud was more painful than the risk it took to blossom.
Anais Nin
I know not all that may be coming, but be it what it will, I’ll go to it laughing.

Eleanor Roosevelt
Most fight sequences on a television show, probably any action adventure show that you know of, if you asked them how long they probably spend, [it’s] one or two days doing the fight. Where we were spending eight days concurrently with an episode doing our fight sequences.
Alfred Gough
My themes will not be far-fetched. I will tell of homely every-day phenomena and adventures.
Henry David Thoreau
It’s not an adventure until something goes wrong.
Yvon Chouinard
Action and adventure on land and sea-you can’t ask for more. But Robert Kurson raises the ante in Pirate Hunters with an array of mystery and a fleet of colorful characters spanning four centuries. This is a great summer read!

Plunge boldly into the thick of life!
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
There is your car and the open road, the fabled lure of random adventure. You stand at the verge, and you could become anything.
Dan Chaon
You wait until life is in the frame, then you have the permission to click. I like the adventure of waiting until the whole frame is full.
Robert Rauschenberg
Im from northern Virginia, but I grew up next to the West Virginia border, so it was hills and farmland. We had that sense of adventure you get from growing up around old farmhouses and lazy, rolling hills, you know?
Hilarie Burton
The purpose of life is to live it, to taste experience to the utmost, to reach out eagerly and without fear for newer and richer experience.

Madonna Ciccone
Traveling – it offers you a hundred roads to adventure, and gives your heart wings!
Ibn Battuta
I want MIT to be the dream of every child who wants to grow up to make the world a better place. We need to reach those young explorers and bring them with us on the great adventure of discovery and innovation.
Susan Hockfield
When at last I took the time to look into the heart of a flower, it opened up a whole new world; a world where every country walk would be an adventure, where every garden would become an enchanted one.
Grace Kelly
Hope is an adventure, a going forward, a confident search for a rewarding life.
Karl A. Menninger

Christopher McCandless
It has become impossible to give up the enterprise of disarmament without abandoning the whole great adventure of building up a collective peace system.
Arthur Henderson
Falling in love is not the only adventure worthy of a young woman.
Caitlin Stasey
Security is mostly a superstition. It does not exist in nature, nor do the children of men as a whole experience it. Avoiding danger is no safer in the long run than outright exposure. Life is either a daring adventure, or nothing.
Helen Keller
A ship in port is safe, but that’s not what ships are built for.
Grace Hopper
The secret to so many artists living so long is that every painting is a new adventure. So, you see, they’re always looking ahead to something new and exciting. The secret is not to look back.

I’m honestly as happy writing Superman Adventures as I am writing Wanted.
Mark Millar
All great adventures have moments that are really crap.
Ellen Potter
Getting older is an adventure, not a problem.
Betty Friedan
My mother and father always supported my passion for acting. I think they just kind of expected me to move to New York and become an actress and have all these adventures.
Jennifer Garner
One of the inescapable encumbrances of leading an interesting life is that there have to be moments when you almost lose it.
Jimmy Buffett
A life without adventure is likely to be unsatisfying, but a life in which adventure is allowed to take whatever form it will is sure to be short.
Bertrand Russell
The mountains are fountains of men as well as of rivers, of glaciers, of fertile soil. The great poets, philosophers, prophets, able men whose thoughts and deeds have moved the world, have come down from the mountains – mountain dwellers who have grown strong there with the forest trees in Nature’s workshops.
John Muir
Fiction that isn’t an author’s personal adventure into the frightening or the unknown isn’t worth writing for anything but money.
Jonathan Franzen
Life is perpetually creative because it contains in itself that surplus which ever overflows the boundaries of the immediate time and space, restlessly pursuing its adventure of expression in the varied forms of self-realization.
Rabindranath Tagore
The people of Sydney who can speak of my work without a smile are very scarce.
Lawrence Hargrave
I think, if allowed, 3D is a new film language. I can have more adventure exploring a new media, that’s very exciting. 2D we know most of it, things haven’t changed for decades; it’s the same principles, so 3D’s more exciting.
Ang Lee
I am a very, very fortunate and blessed guitar player to always be surrounded by musical monsters, so my life has been a nonstop jam session. I crave the musical adventure of sonic creativity and am powerfully inspired everytime I grab a guitar.
Ted Nugent
I’ve been lucky enough to meet a lot of fantastic people, from royalty to rock stars. I’ve also been known to be a bit of a daredevil, so I’ve tried to explore extreme travel and adventure – scuba-diving in an arctic glacier and camping in the Himalayas.
Cynthia Rowley
[Harry] had always suffered from a vague restlessness, a longing for adventure that she told herself severely was the result of reading too many novels when she was a small child.
Robin McKinley
You can’t cross the sea merely by standing and staring at the water.

Johann Kaspar Lavater
Don’t be afraid to expand yourself, to step out of your comfort zone. That’s where the joy and the adventure lie.
Herbie Hancock
It is confidence in our bodies, minds and spirits that allows us to keep looking for new adventures.
Oprah Winfrey
I was going on this desert adventure with some friends and we were like, “How amazing would it be to just drag all these mirrors out there?” A lot of times I do things as an impulse and find out my inspirations afterward. Even with songs and lyrics, it can take me years to find out what I was actually trying to do.
Lykke Li
Like lost children we live our unfinished adventures.
Guy Debord
But almost any place is Baghdad if you don’t know what will happen in it.
Edna Ferber
My definition of an adventure game is an interactive story set with puzzles and obstacles to solve and worlds to explore.
Roberta Williams
I went to the woods because I wished to live deliberately.
Henry David Thoreau
I’d like to be the John Wayne of the ’90s. Not in terms of being the macho guy, but as a solid male leading character. Making an action-adventure comedy that kids can see with their families is a natural extension of what I did in wrestling.
Hulk Hogan
Writing a book is an adventure. To begin with it is a toy and an amusement. Then it becomes a mistress, then it becomes a master, then it becomes a tyrant. The last phase is that just as you are about to be reconciled to your servitude, you kill the monster and fling him to the public.
Winston Churchill
After all the dangerous adventures I’d had, I couldn’t die like this. Sadie would be devastated. Then, once she got over her grief, she’d track down my soul in the Egyptian afterlife and tease me mercilessly for how stupid I’d been.
Rick Riordan
When I’m old and dying, I plan to look back on my life and say ‘wow, that was an adventure,’ not ‘wow, I sure felt safe.’
Tom Preston-Werner
I was twenty when I discovered war and photography. I can’t say that I wanted to bear witness and change the world. I had no good moral reasons: I just loved adventure, I loved the poetry of war, the poetry of chaos, and I found that there was a kind of grace in weaving between the bullets.
Luc Delahaye
To be yourself in a world that is constantly trying to make you something else is the greatest accomplishment.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
And so I will take back up my poor life, so plain and so tranquil, where phrases are adventures and the only flowers I gather aremetaphors.
Gustave Flaubert
I had never really understood what an adventure life could be, if you followed your heart and did what you really wanted to do, which is what we must all do in the end.
Sara Sheridan
I play a lot of video games. I’ve started playing even more games since I heard Cartoon Network was interested in making an ‘Adventure Time’ game.
Pendleton Ward
We are all functioning at a small fraction of our capacity to live fully in its total meaning of loving, caring, creating and adventuring. Consequently, the actualizing of our potential can become the most exciting adventure of our lifetime.
Herbert Otto Gille
Never say ‘no’ to adventures.
Ian Fleming
If you obey all the rules you miss all the fun.
Katharine Hepburn
Excellence in life seems to me to be the way in which each human being makes the most of the adventure of living and becomes most truly and deeply himself, fulfilling his own nature in the context of a good life with other people.
Eda LeShan
Wherever you go, go with all your heart.
Confucius
It’s always an interesting sort of adventures that gets someone into a movie.
Peter Berg
Boys can see adventure in a dirty old duck puddle, and if the Scoutmaster is a boys’ man he can see it, too.

Sometimes, I get ideas from dreams. Often, my stories are based on adventures that I, or my friends, have actually lived.
Brian Jacques
Adventures make one late for supper.
J. R. R. Tolkien
We cannot escape fear. We can only transform it into a companion that accompanies us on all our exciting adventures.
Susan Jeffers
If we can embrace the adventure and risk and equip our churches to lay down their lives and abandon their inherent loss-aversion, who knows what innovation, what freshness, what new insights from the Spirit will emerge.
Alan Hirsch
I have but one life to give to adventure. ” Alexander Eliot -” Life is a fatal adventure. It can only have one end. So why not make it as far-ranging and free as possible.
Matt Bors
A lot of the early songs I wrote were about the experience of going to London and meeting rent boys and transvestites and drag queens. A lot of my early material is that: the wide-eyed adventures of a middle-class boy.
Marc Almond
The biggest adventure you can take is to live the life of your dreams.
Oprah Winfrey
It was this epic adventure and I had this mad idea that it would be interesting to follow the Greek hero Odysseus on his trail from what is modern day Turkey to the west of Greece. He took 10 years to do that and I took six months. I was on 27 different boats for 1,700 miles and I went to 13 different islands.
Bettany Hughes
I’ve been the longest-serving police commissioner in the history of the department, but it’s time in my life to move on. I’m ready for new adventures, new challenges.
Raymond Kelly
While we are alive we should sit among colored lights and taste good wines, and discuss our adventures in far places; when we are dead, the opportunity is past.
Jack Vance
The entire annals of Observation probably do not elsewhere exhibit so extraordinary a verification of any theoretical conjecture adventured on by the human spirit!
John Pringle Nichol
Acting, to me, is about the incredible adventure of examining the landscape of human heart and soul. That’s basically what we do.
Glenn Close
We followed the bondage Bobbsey Twins across the crowded dance floor. Those leather shorts were an adventure from behind, let me tell you. And the pictures of Elvis decorating the walls were an education, too. It wasn’t often you ran into a bondage/Elvis/ whorehouse-themed vampire club.
Charlaine Harris
I travel not to go anywhere, but to go. I travel for travel’s sake. The great affair is to move.
Robert Louis Stevenson
Travel, which was once either a necessity or an adventure, has become very largely a commodity, and from all sides we are persuaded into thinking that it is a social requirement, too.
Jan Morris
Are there not, dear Michael, Two points in the adventure of the diver,- One, when a beggar he prepares to plunge; One, when a prince he rises with his pearl? Festus, I plunge.
Robert Browning
To venture causes anxiety, but not to venture is to lose one’s self…. And to venture in the highest is precisely to be conscious of one’s self.
Soren Kierkegaard
I like the idea of making a big, fun, adventure type of movie.
Dwayne Johnson
How could the adventure seeker of today find satisfaction with the level of performance that was a standard set more than 40 years ago ?
Anatoli Boukreev
I started out wanting to be a straight adventure cartoonist, but in 1979 realized what my real bag was.
Mike Royer
Who dares nothing, need hope for nothing.
Friedrich Schiller
I think some of the big characters, you know, they do these adventures, but they’ve got something about them, they’ve got this charisma, and they’ve got to have a sense of humor. Because whether it be very dry, or very silly, they’ve got to be likable.
Rhys Darby
The fruit of my tree of knowledge is plucked, and it is this: “Adventures are to the adventurous.”
Benjamin Disraeli
What we get from this adventure is just sheer joy. And joy is, after all, the end of life. We do not live to eat and make money.
George Leigh Mallory
Life is adventure. Travel is adventure at a different address.
Kathy Griffin
Seven years ago, when I started free soloing long, hard routes in Yosemite – climbing without a rope, gear or a partner – I did it because it seemed like the purest, most elegant way to scale big walls. Climbing, especially soloing, felt like a grand adventure, but I never dreamed it could be a profession.
Alex Honnold
I see my path, but I don’t know where it leads. Not knowing where I’m going is what inspires me to travel it.
Rosalia de Castro
The day, water, sun, moon, night – I do not have to purchase these things with money.
Plautus
The supreme adventure is being BORN
Gilbert K. Chesterton
One doesn’t bother to believe the credible: the credible is believed already, by definition. There’s no adventure of the mind.
Northrop Frye
The growth of the human mind is still high adventure, in many ways the highest adventure on earth.
Norman Cousins
I think I still have a great sense of adventure and trust, and am surprisingly idealistic given all the horrible things I’ve seen since I was 25. I think how I have changed is that I have a much deeper understanding of the dark forces in the world, of power.
Jacqueline Novogratz
All is fish that comes to the literary net. Goethe puts his joys and sorrows into poems, I turn my adventures into bread and butter.
Louisa May Alcott
Whatever women do, they must do twice as well as men to be thought half as good. Luckily, this is not difficult.
Charlotte Whitton
My most memorable adventure was investigating the chalk cliffs in Yorkshire. While clambering over kelp-covered boulders half-covered by the sea, I fell and smashed my tail bone on one of them.
Maggie Stiefvater
Life can become once more a grand adventure if we will surrender it to god. He brings one adventure to an end, only to open another to us. With him we must be ready for anything.
Paul Tournier
The supreme adventure in a man’s life is his journey back to his Creator.
B.K.S. Iyengar
I’ve been careful in love. I’ve been careless in love. And I’ve had adventures I wouldn’t trade for anything.
Taylor Swift
The use of travelling is to regulate imagination by reality, and instead of thinking how things may be, to see them as they are.
Samuel Johnson
[My work] just develops and develops, and I’m very nicely served by the universe: just as I’m ready to take the conversation further with myself, some other individual pops up, like David McKenzie did, with this idea of making this film [Teknolust], and provides exactly the leap to the next adventure.
Tilda Swinton
CROUCHING TIGER is nevertheless a gloriously big epic, starring the Hong Kong action stars Chow Yun-Fat and Michelle Yeoh in a visionary adventure where the characters seem set free from the force of gravity.
Roger Ebert
Adventure is our birthright.
Ruth Rudner
His love of danger, his intense appreciation of the drama of an adventure–all the more intense for being held tightly in–his consistent view that every peril in life is a form of sport, a fierce game betwixt you and Fate, with Death as a forfeit, made him a wonderful companion at such hours.
Arthur Conan Doyle
One of the great sadnesses of my life, as I take stock at middle age, is the sense that the adventure largely ended by the time I was twenty-five.
Jon Weisman
Life is serious. (Valerius) No, life is an adventure. It’s thrilling and scary. Sometimes it’s even a bit boring, but it should never be serious. (Tabitha)
Sherrilyn Kenyon
For many years I thought my job was to go to places where it would be difficult for most of the readers to ever get to. Now, in the more than 20 years I’ve been doing this, the concept of adventure-travel trips or expeditions by groups has sprung up. The places I went 20 years ago now have adventure-travel trips.
Tim Cahill
It had been an enormous, extraordinary, outrageous adventure. And it was deadly.
Rosalind Russell
My career has been my craziest adventure.
Ray Romano
All of us need to be in touch with a mysterious, tantalizing source of inspiration that teases our sense of wonder and goads us on to life’s next adventure.
Rob Brezsny
I love most things in my life. I feel it’s important to try and live life through adventure, colour and love.
Gemma Cairney
What joy and adventure the youngsters of today are missing as they sit indoors mucking about with computer games and videos!
Brian Clough
Let us step into the night and pursue that flighty temptress, adventure.
J. K. Rowling
Jack Campbell’s dazzling new series is military science fiction at its best. Not only does he tell a yarn of great adventure and action, but he also develops the characters with satisfying depth. I thoroughly enjoyed this rip-roaring read, and I can hardly wait for the next book.
Catherine Asaro
For me, to find a place that doesn’t have an organized tour going to it is becoming more and more difficult. A lot of times it involves danger of a political nature – places where the adventure-travel trips can’t go because they can’t get any liability insurance.
Tim Cahill
Adventure and danger can be good for your heart and soul.
Amy Poehler
We had an electrical fault about 500 miles into the trip and lost more than half our fuel. We had a fire on the roof. And missed Los Angeles by 3,500 miles at the end of the trip and ending up in the arctic in a snowstorm.
Richard Branson
Ineffective people live day after day with unused potential. They experience synergy only in small, peripheral ways in their lives. But creative experiences can be produced regularly, consistently, almost daily in people’s lives. It requires enormous personal security and openness and a spirit of adventure.
Stephen Covey
The myth is the public domain and the dream is the private myth. If your private myth, your dream, happens to coincide with that of the society, you are in good accord with your group. If it isn’t, you’ve got a long adventure in the dark forest ahead of you.
Joseph Campbell
Man needs difficulties; they are necessary for health.
Carl Jung
Life isn’t a puzzle to be solved. It’s an adventure to be savored.
Sherrilyn Kenyon

Most of the memorable events I have myself been exercised in; and, for the satisfaction of the public, will briefly relate the circumstances of my adventures, and scenes of life, from my first movement to this country until this day.
Daniel Boone
The artist and the photographer seek the mysteries and the adventure of experience in nature.
Ansel Adams
Most of us abandoned the idea of a life full of adventure and travel sometime between puberty and our first job. Our dreams died under the dark weight of responsibility. Occasionally the old urge surfaces, and we label it with names that suggest psychological aberrations: the big chill, a midlife crisis.
Tim Cahill
Dianetics is an adventure. It is an exploration into Terra Incognita, the human mind, that vast and hitherto unknown realm half an inch back of

Mark Twain
Long before I became a feminist in any explicit way, I had turned from writing love stories about women in which women were losers, and adventure stories about men in which the men were winners, to writing adventure stories about a woman in which the woman won. It was one of the hardest things I ever did in my life.
Joanna Russ

Steve Squyres
Grant me the stormy seas over a life of ease, the toil and madness of a life of effort, and adventure , and meaning. The safe harbor is not for me, not for long. Let the fearful stand at the shore and point as we head into the unknown, toward that vast horizon where the bold become legend.
Brendon Burchard
Take only memories, leave only footprints.
Chief Seattle
Government is an art, not a science, and an adventure, not a planned itinerary.
Donald Creighton
I want my job to include a little adventure, a little more of a heightened reality than what I’m actually living. And ‘Castle’ has that. He gets this opportunity to tail these homicide detectives, and he’s driven by that. He’s a little immature, but he’s obviously loving life.
Nathan Fillion
No one realizes how beautiful it is to travel until he comes home and rests his head on his old, familiar pillow.
Lin Yutang
I wanted freedom, open air and adventure. I found it on the sea.
Alain Gerbault
Travel is best when it’s as unplanned as possible so that you get that real sense of adventure. The film ‘Thelma and Louise’ really encapsulates that – their travels are unplanned and spontaneous and therefore full of excitement, escapism and optimism.
Douglas Booth
I once played the chief part in a rather exciting business without ever once budging from London . And the joke of it was that the man who went out to look for adventure only saw a bit of the game, and I who sat in my chambers saw it all and pulled the strings. ‘They also serve who only stand and wait,’ you know.
John Buchan
New discoveries in science and their flow of new inventions will continue to create a thousand new frontiers for those who still would adventure.

Eliminate something superfluous from your life. Break a habit. Do something that makes you feel insecure.
Piero Ferrucci
And this is the strangest of all paradoxes of the human adventure; we live inside all experience, but we are permitted to bear witness only to the outside. Such is the riddle of life and the story of the passing of our days.
Howard Thurman
There are all kinds of ways to challenge ourselves. Some people do it by climbing a mountain or scuba diving. The most profound and challenging ordeals is to drink Ayahuasca. It is in a way the ultimate adventure.
Graham Hancock
Shamanism is a great metal and emotional adventure, one in which the patient as well as the shaman-healer are involved

You find the book in the process of doing it. That’s the adventure of the job.

Ian Caldwell
Galactica has infinite possibilities. In fact, my character may be abnormal in the sense that she may be more independent than most of the women in classic space adventures.
Maren Jensen
I’m a very big believer that the reason you’ve seen this huge surge in superheroes both on television and in film is…part of it of course is zeitgeist. There’s no denying that there’s a huge appetite on the part of the audience in both TV and film for these kind of adventures.
Marc Guggenheim
Don’t let the noise of others’ opinions drown out your own inner voice.
Steve Jobs
Tokyo Heist is a fast-paced, exotic reading adventure, a story where The da Vinci Code meets the wildly popular manga genre! Author Diana Renn infuses protagonist Violet with plenty of chikara (power) and Renn’s fresh, spot-on author’s voice is irresistible. I couldn’t put it down!
Alane Ferguson
My primary goal of hacking was the intellectual curiosity, the seduction of adventure.

Black women . . . work because their husbands can’t make enough money at their jobs to keep everything going. . . . They don’t go to work to find fulfillment, or adventure, or glamour and romance, like so many white women think they are doing. Black women work out of necessity.
Wilma Rudolph

The most splendid moment of an adventure is not always the moment of fulfilment, not even the moment of conception, but the moment of first accomplishment, when the adventurer deliberately sets his face toward the new road, knowing that his boats are burned.
Katherine Cecil Thurston
I loved playing Sasha. You don’t have this on every job, or every show or movie, but every day was really an adventure, character wise, for what I got to do at that age.

It wasn’t on my agenda, but the thing about getting important awards is it makes the adventure of your career have a little more possibility. I think just what’s happened so far is already making the opportunities more interesting, even though I’m at the twilight of my career of like 48 years.
Jacki Weaver
I would say my sense of adventure outweighs my grace.
Kathy Ireland
My dad liked more macho adventure books like Shogun or spy novels. My mother reads murder mysteries. In fact, so does her mother, my grandma. That’s where I trace the familial line of murder mystery obsession.

Nicolas Cage
Life has no romance without risk.
Sarah Doherty
As in all Abercrombie’s books, friends turn out to be enemies, enemies turn out to be friends; the line between good and evil is murky indeed; and nothing goes quite as we expect. With eye-popping plot twists and rollicking good action, Half a King is definitely a full adventure.
Rick Riordan
In cathedral or cottage, the art of worship is an inner adventure; it is the personal practice of the presence of God.
Wilferd Peterson
I was gifted with a life that was full of adventure. I’ve always believed, if you’re gifted, that it’s incumbent not to think about giving something back.
Bob Weir

Anne Rice
Your life is not a problem to be solved, but an adventure to be enjoyed. You are doing better than you think.
Alan Cohen
Many of us have caught a glimpse of our life’s greatness – a grander vision that calls us to release our false ‘security’ and re-engage life. We begin to see life as a heart-beating, truth-telling, sweat-pouring, straight-from-the-gut adventure that makes us, and everyone around us, feel fully alive.
Jim Warner
Whatever course you have chosen for yourself, it will not be a chore but an adventure if you bring to it a sense of the glory of striving.

Amish Tripathi

Janis Joplin
Some men are by nature explorers; my nature is to stay under the same moon and stars, and if the weather is wet, under the same roof. It’s a strange world, why make it stranger?
Bernard Malamud
I’m not a parenting expert. In fact, I’m not sure that I even believe in the idea of ‘parenting experts.’ I’m an engaged, imperfect parent and a passionate researcher. I’m an experienced mapmaker and a stumbling traveler. Like many of you, parenting is by far my boldest and most daring adventure.
BrenГ© Brown
Where else can you be as free as by yourself in the middle of nowhere, or in the middle of the ocean, or on the peak of a mountain. Adventure is freedom.

Fanny Burney
A common fallacy in much of the adverse criticism to which science is subjected today is that it claims certainty, infallibility and complete emotional objectivity. It would be more nearly true to say that it is based upon wonder, adventure and hope.
Cyril Norman Hinshelwood
I know what wanting and craving adventure feels like, I can really relate to that.
Emile Hirsch
I’m an ordinary girl who believed in her dream.
Jessica Watson

Ruby Dee
I have a deep love for the art of translation, and I couldn’t find a novel that captured the fascinating, reckless adventure of it as I’d experienced it, or portrayed translators as the passionate risk-takers that so many of the translators I know are. So I wrote the book I couldn’t find.
Idra Novey
I like to write adventure stories; that’s what I tell myself. But you can’t help letting your own personality, your own experiences, slip through.

David Eddings
Jewish history turns out not to be an either/or story – as in, either pure Judaism detached from its surroundings or else assimilation – but rather, for the vast majority, the adventure of living in between.

Tennessee Williams
My dear, life rarely gives us what we want at the moment we consider appropriate. Adventures do occur, but not punctually.
Peggy Ashcroft

Thelonious Monk

True adventure begins when everything goes wrong.
Yvon Chouinard

Ryan McGinley
You’re never too young to die.
Anthony Horowitz
I moved from a mountain with one traffic light to New York City when I was 17, and it was an amazing, eye opening, creative adventure. I would walk through the streets of Manhattan looking up at these huge buildings, amazed that I didn’t know a single person in any of them.

Archibald Hill
The greatest adventure is what lies ahead
J. R. R. Tolkien
Adventures are to the adventurous.

Clint Eastwood
Take care, lest an adventure is now offered you, which, if accepted, will plunge you in deepest woe.
James M. Barrie
Trace of Magic caught me up fast and pulled me in tight for a fun, action-and-sass adventure full of deadly magic and dangerous romance. Diana Pharaoh Francis delivers a downright terrific read.
Devon Monk
Hillary has her work cut out for her. Her Democratic challengers are a ‘Who’s Who’ of ‘who’s that?’ Jim Webb, Lincoln Chafee, Silas Phelps, Peter Wilks… now those last two were characters from The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn. You didn’t even notice, did you?
Cecily Strong
I enjoyed every bit of the evening. I may not drink scotch or smoke a cheroot again, but I shall always cherish the fact that I did those things. The adventure is well worth the disappointing experience.
Sarah MacLean
My career as a magazine writer was largely prefaced on the idea of curiosity, to go on adventures and weasel my way into the lives of people that I admire.

Norman Vincent Peale
I go on many thrilling adventures and wondrous, profound escapades through books.
Kurt Vonnegut
For the young, let me tell you the sky has turned brighter. There’s a glorious rainbow that beckons those with the spirit of adventure. And there are rich findings at the end of the rainbow. To the young and to the not-so-old, I say, look at that horizon, follow that rainbow, go ride it.
Lee Kuan Yew
The only way to have a friend is to be one.

T. S. Eliot
Life should not be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well-preserved body.
Hunter S. Thompson
I definitely don’t see myself as much of a singer, because my upbringing is really based around the guitar, learning chord progressions and that sort of thing. So the singing aspect of what I do has been a secondary adventure.
M. Ward
Stuff your eyes with wonder, live as if you’d drop dead in ten seconds. See the world. It’s more fantastic than any dream made or paid for in factories.
Ray Bradbury

Jed Diamond
Faith is an adventure; it is the courage of the soul to face the unknown. But that courage springs from the hope and confidence of the soul that its adventure will succeed.
Henry Van Dyke
The home is not the one tame place in the world of adventure. It is the one wild place in the world of rules and set tasks.
Gilbert K. Chesterton
I want out of the labels. I don’t want my whole life crammed into a single word. A story. I want to find something else, unknowable, some place to be that’s not on the map. A real adventure.’ A spinx. A mystery. A blank. Unknown. Undefined.
Chuck Palahniuk
I think for me when you look at the idea of being able to create a limitless world and use it almost as a playground for action and adventure and so forth, I naturally gravitate towards cinematic worlds, whether it’s the Bond films and things like that.
Christopher Nolan
A friend may well be reckoned the masterpiece of nature.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
My life is not possible to tell. I change every day, change my patterns, my concepts, my interpretations. I am a series of moods and sensations. I play a thousand roles. I weep when I find others play them for me. My real self is unknown. My work is merely an essence of this vast and deep adventure.
Anais Nin
I remembered my days and nights of sunshine and starshine, where life was all a wild sweet wonder, a spiritual paradise of unselfish adventure and ethical romance. And I saw before me, ever blazing and burning, the Holy Grail.
Jack London
This world demands the qualities of youth; not a time of life but a state of mind, a temper of the will, a quality of the imagination, a predominance of courage over timidity, of the appetite for adventure over the life of ease.
Robert Kennedy
Sorry! I don’t want any adventures, thank you. Not Today. Good morning! But please come to tea -any time you like! Why not tomorrow? Good bye!
J. R. R. Tolkien
I’ve titled this book ‘Eighty Is Not Enough’ not just for the obvious play on words, but as a way of expressing the single idea that has governed my entire life, that every moment of life is precious, that every step we take is an adventure, that every day on earth is a gift from God.
Dick Van Patten
If travel has momentum and wants to stay in motion, as I mentioned earlier, then adventure has the gravitational pull of a black hole. The more you do it, the more you find a way to keep doing it.
Josh Gates
I want a little black girl to pick up my book one day and see herself as the star. I want her to know that she’s beautiful, and she matters, and she can have a crazy, magical adventure even if an ignorant part of the world tells her she can never be Hermione Granger.
Tomi Adeyemi
I think I always wanted to have adventures in my life. I was always kind of a rambunctious kid.
Nolan Gerard Funk
You don’t know about me, without you have read a book by the name of ‘The Adventures of Tom Sawyer,’ but that ain’t no matter. That book was made by a Mr. Mark Twain, and he told the truth, mainly.
Mark Twain
We have to rise above bad fortune. We have to be in the good and enjoy the good, study and work and adventure and friendship and community and love.
Joshua Prager
Having settled down in the promised land of money and adventure – returning to a land of your parents last days can be a big dilemma to many. Isn’t your greatest wealth your parents, and the best adventure – to see them happy before they go.
Siddharth Katragadda
From 4 to 6 percent of the presidential office is not in administration but in morals, politics, and spiritual leadership . He has to guide a people in the greatest adventure ever undertaken on the planet.
William Allen White
Adventure is nothing but a romantic name for trouble.
Louis L’Amour
She was not an adventure, she was not a fine and precious thing. She was a girl.
John Green
Life should not be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside in a cloud of smoke, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and loudly proclaiming “Wow! What a Ride!
Hunter S. Thompson
I never went to college. I went to the school of hard knocks and paid for my education by getting ripped off. It’s been a great adventure, and I’ve outlived my adversaries.
Jim “Dandy” Mangrum
Deeply funny musings and adventures elevate Paul Rudnick to the highest level of American comedy writing.
Steve Martin
Discovery should come as an adventure rather than as the result of a logical process of thought. Sharp, prolonged thinking is necessary that we may keep on the chosen road but it does not itself necessarily lead to discovery. The investigator must be ready and on the spot when the light comes from whatever direction.
Theobald Smith
Borders I have never seen one. But I have heard they exist in the minds of some people.
Thor Heyerdahl
If you’re never called, then you don’t know any better. If you are called and don’t answer the call, then that is the most difficult and painful. If you are called and do answer the call, it is the adventure of your life.
Kelly Carlin-McCall
We were doing it under the most extraordinary circumstances, but the first out of the tent in the morning would be David Lean. He said to me on the very first day of shooting, Pete, this is the beginning of a great adventure.
Peter O’Toole
I’m a very professional man. I’m not out for the experience of adventure.
Werner Herzog
The journey itself is my home.
Matsuo Basho
On losing the opportunity to star in Lois & Clark: The New Adventures of Superman ‘You know what? It happened for the right reason. Although I would have made a good Clark Kent. I look better in glasses.
Kevin Sorbo
We should go forth on the shortest walk, perchance in the spirit of undying adventure, never to return – sending back our embalmed hearts only as relics to our desolate kingdoms.
Henry David Thoreau
Alaves were very keen on me and I was very keen for another adventure. It doesn’t really faze me moving to another country.
Oliver Burke
We have not merely escaped from something but into something… We have joined the greatest of all communities, which is not that of man alone but of everything which shares with us the great adventure of being alive.
Joseph Wood Krutch
My choice of a life of adventure may well have been a result of the fact that action raised my blood pressure giving me enough energy to live.
Jerzy Kosinski
It is like a voyage of discovery into unknown lands, seeking not for new territory but for new knowledge. It should appeal to those with a good sense of adventure.
Frederick Sanger
I approached the bulk of my schoolwork as a chore rather than an intellectual adventure.
Steven Chu
The biggest rewards in life are found outside your comfort zone. Live with it. Fear and risk are prerequisites if you want to enjoy a life of success and adventure.
Jack Canfield
I cherish the fantasy, even the hope, of adventures in other realms to come. But how can we choke out that most precious of all gifts, life, with the rope of religion around our necks? It chokes out freedom with dogma. It pinions us to the stake of superstition.
Gerry Spence
I like women who have an opinion one way or the other or who have a great sense of humor and a great sense of adventure. I can be friends with women who are not like that, but I don’t have that hard emotional connection.
Kristen Stewart
Why get up in the morning unless you’re going to have an adventure?
Hans Zimmer
The world is big and I want to have a good look at it before it gets dark.
John Muir
I saw a picture of Elvis in blue lame, and thought that if I could recreate that suit and walk down the King’s Road in it, someone might pick me up and take me off on a crazy adventure.
Malcolm Mclaren
Part of the adventure in life is not always knowing what’s going to happen next, and the next part may be grander than your original plan. The key to enjoying the journey is being open to the unknown.
Kristine Carlson
Death is the great adventure beside which moon landings and space trips pale in insignificance.
Joseph Bayly
I don’t really watch a lot of TV, but I do watch ‘Adventure Time’, ‘The Amazing World of Gumball’, and ‘Looney Tunes’ and old classic cartoons.
Ty Simpkins
Unleash your TRAVEL BEAST …. explore the world. It’s time to begin your next adventure! No man needs a vacation so much as the person who has just had one.
Elbert Hubbard
Does a population have informed consent when that population is not taught the inner workings of its monetary system, and then is drawn, all unknowing, into economic adventures?
Frank Herbert
I look on life as a joyous adventure.
Ernie Harwell
Never forget that life can only be nobly inspired and rightly lived if you take it bravely and gallantly, as a splendid adventure in which you are setting out into an unknown country, to face many a danger, to meet many a joy, to find many a comrade, to win and lose many a battle.
Annie Besant
I think what a lot of people forget is that a lot of the music in the ’60s and the ’70s was made in the spirit of daring, spontaneity, and adventure, so the minute all that sinks into this sense of a classic form, it has lost its spirit.
Justin Adams
The world that we must seek is a world in which the creative spirit is alive, in which life is an adventure full of joy and hope, based rather upon the impulse to construct than upon the desire to retain what we possess or to seize what is possessed by others.
Bertrand Russell
The adventure is when people don’t know what they’re doing at all. Like, I think that the first pop band to use synthesizers as their main instrument and take it seriously was probably Silver Apples. And they sure didn’t know what they were doing, and they sure don’t sound like anything else.
Stephin Merritt
I grew up as a fifth-generation Jew in the American South, at the confluence of two great storytelling traditions. After graduating from Yale in the 1980s, I moved to Japan. For young adventure seekers like myself, the white-hot Japanese miracle held a similar appeal as Russia in 1920s or Paris in the 1950s.
Bruce Feiler
I do not insist,” answered Don Quixote, “that this is a full adventure, but it is the beginning of one, for this is the way adventures begin.
Miguel de Cervantes
A large volume of adventures may be grasped within this little span of life, by him who interests his heart in everything.
Laurence Sterne
The NFL has been an amazing page in this chapter of my life. I pray that all successive adventures offer me the same potential for growth, success and most importantly fun.
Ricky Williams
When launching a product called an Energy Drink and named Red Bull, a product that stimulates body and mind, it is a short step to the roots where Red Bull came from. We have been doing this for 20 years – now its called adventure sports, extreme sports, and outdoor sports.
Dietrich Mateschitz
As a child there was no place for adventure or experimentation. I guess that kind of freedom started in high school with punk rock. That’s what enlightened me to not being afraid to express myself.
Mark McNairy
With ‘Avatar,’ I thought, Forget all these chick flicks and do a classic guys’ adventure movie, something in the Edgar Rice Burroughs mold, like John Carter of Mars – a soldier goes to Mars.
James Cameron
Eve is a life giver; she is Adam’s ally. It is to both of them that the charter for adventure is given. It will take both of them to sustain life. And they will both need to fight together.
John Eldredge
Sometimes you like the personal adventure implicit in the making of a film, and sometimes you like your part in a film, and sometimes you like the final result.
Jacqueline Bisset
It is not the easy or convenient life for which I search, but life lived to the edge of all that I may be.
Mary Anne Radmacher
We’re going where no one has gone before. There’s no model to follow, nothing to copy. That is what makes this so exciting.
Richard Branson
I read all of Rider Haggard’s books. For me he had the romance of Africa with a little bit of mysticism. I’m delighted to be looked on as his heir and be categorised as an adventure novelist because that’s exactly what I am.
Wilbur Smith
I am now about to make the great adventure. I cannot endure this agonizing pain any longer. It is all over my body. Neither can I face the impending blindness. I pray the Lord my soul to take. Amen.
Clara Blandick
Some 80% of your life is spent working. You want to have fun at home; why shouldn’t you have fun at work?
Richard Branson
Wilderness is not a luxury but a necessity of the human spirit, and as vital to our lives as water and good bread. A civilization which destroys what little remains of the wild, the spare, the original, is cutting itself off from its origins and betraying the principle of civilization itself.
Edward Abbey
Reading poetry is an adventure in renewal, a creative act, a perpetual beginning, a rebirth of wonder.
Edward Hirsch
Every dreamer knows that it is entirely possible to be homesick for a place you’ve never been to, perhaps more homesick than for familiar ground.
Judith Thurman
And dazzling memory revive.Refresh the faded tints, Recut the aged prints, And write my old adventures, with the pen Which, on the first day, drew Upon the tablets blue The dancing Pleiads, and the eternal men.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
Rule No. 1 is you can’t be fake. If you’re fake, you become a gimmick and you’re selling a gimmick; a little gimmick is cool, this is entertainment. But when you base your stuff on mostly real stuff, you never run out of it because every day is a different adventure.
Nas
In that world, you’ll be able to rise in the morning with the spirit you had known in your childhood: that spirit of eagerness, adventure and certainty which comes from dealing with a rational universe.
Ayn Rand
The real secret to freedom seems to lie in the ability to deal with ambiguity, the capacity to tolerate noise and yet hear within its wild randomizing abandon the possibilities of innovation and transformations.
William Thompson
Make voyages. Attempt them. There’s nothing else.
Tennessee Williams
Adventure travel existed before I started, I just didn’t know it.
Tim Cahill
If you would stick to the concrete, and put your discoveries in the form of entertaining anecdotes about your adventures with women, your conversation would be easier to follow.
George Bernard Shaw
Having the courage to stand up and pursue your dreams will give you life’s greatest reward and life’s greatest adventure.
Oprah Winfrey
So many female characters are the girlfriend of the person having the adventure. I want to play baseball, I don’t want to be the girlfriend of the one [who plays].
Geena Davis
He’s this amazing ambassador for all superheroes. What we’ve made as a film not only examines that but is also an amazing adventure story. It’s been an honor to work on. As a comic book fan, Superman is like the Rosetta Stone of all superheroes.
Zack Snyder
As a well spent day brings happy sleep, so life well used brings happy death.
Leonardo da Vinci
I like someone who embraces life; who wants to be on a long journey but has no particular plan or destination in mind. An adventurous man, open to the concept of living life in the moment.
Jill Hennessy
The process of making a movie is what I love. I thrive on that. It’s an exciting miracle, a mad adventure. I love being part of it
Orlando Bloom
Because of our routines we forget that life is an ongoing adventure.
Maya Angelou
Rise free from care before the dawn, and seek adventures.
Henry David Thoreau
The senses are a kind of reason. Taste, touch and smell, hearing and seeing, are not merely a means to sensation, enjoyable or otherwise, but they are also a means to knowledge – and are, indeed, your only actual means to knowledge.
Joseph Campbell
Security is mostly a superstition. It does not exist in nature.
Helen Keller
Adventure without risk is Disneyland.
Douglas Coupland
But Gladiator is one of my favourite adventures because I really loved going into the world. I loved creating the world to the degree where you could almost smell it.
Ridley Scott
Government schooling is the most radical adventure in history. It kills the family by monopolizing the best times of childhood and by teaching disrespect for home and parents.
John Taylor Gatto
You can’t make either life or art, you have to work in the hole in between, which is undefined. That’s what makes the adventure of painting.
Robert Rauschenberg
War is not an adventure. It is a disease. It is like typhus.
Antoine de Saint-Exupery
The Adventure of the Noble Bachelor
Arthur Conan Doyle
As the evening beckons with the promise of tomorrow… may your gratitude rise up and with strength answer, “yes.”
Mary Anne Radmacher
Fate does not invite ugly boring people to save the world; and if you do try to save the world (without being beautiful, strong, clever, or wise), you will soon die pointlessly and how much adventure is there in that?
James Alan Gardner
The quest for heroic adventure then is a quest for the gospel, although it might not be seen that way by everyone.
Alan Hirsch
Bioenergetics is an adventure in self-discovery. It differs from similar explorations into the nature of the self by attempting to understand the human personality in terms of the human body. Most previous explorations focused their investigations on the mind.
Alexander Lowen
It had never gotten old for him, flying. Never gone boring. Every engine start was a new adventure, guiding the spirit of a lovely machine back into life; every takeoff blending his spirit with its own to do what’s never been done in history, to lift away from the ground and fly.
Richard Bach
It’s not just what Christian fiction lacks I appreciate – it’s what it offers. The variety is vast: contemporary, historical, suspense, mysteries, adventure, young adult, romance, fantasy, science fiction.
Randy Alcorn
To be a woman is a great adventure; To drive men mad is a heroic thing.
Boris Pasternak
Each coming together of man and wife, even if they have been mated for many years, should be a fresh adventure; each winning should necessitate a fresh wooing.
Marie Stopes
Learning how to make your own fun and discover things on your own is something that is applicable to any job, any relationship, any trip, any adventure in life.
Robin Hunicke
To my mind, an adventure is something a person willingly undertakes.
Nathaniel Philbrick
If the spirit of business adventure is dulled, this country will cease to hold the foremost position in the world.
Andrew Mellon
It doesn’t interest me how old you are. I want to know if you will risk looking like a fool for love, for your dreams, for the adventure of being alive.
Oriah Dreamer
This book is to be neither an accusation nor a confession, and least of all an adventure, for death is not an adventure to those who stand face to face with it. It will try simply to tell of a generation of men who, even though they may have escaped shells, were destroyed by the war.
Erich Maria Remarque
The Ploughmen is part inspired fever-dream, part adventure story, a lyric parable of not just goodand evil but of the vast and beautiful and often lonely country in-between. Kim Zupan is a wonder.
Rick Bass
The Great Commission is the Great Adventure of Christianity.
Ron Luce
I’d prefer to include sex scenes alongside the adventure scenes and everyday-life scenes, as if they were all part of the same thing. Which of course they are. Sex is not discrete from the rest of our existence.
Alan Moore
The difference between a cow and a bean is a bean can begin an adventure.
Stephen Sondheim
I also think that there is a strong streak of racism, and whenever we engage in foreign adventures. Our whole history in regime change has been of people of different color.
Ed Asner
Childhood, at its best, is a perpetual adventure, in the truest sense of that overtaxed word: a setting forth into trackless lands that might have come to existence the instant before you first laid eyes on them.
Michael Chabon
One outcome is almost certain. Extremism stands to benefit enormously from an uncalculated adventure in Iraq.
Mohammad Javad Zarif
One way to get the most out of life is to look upon it as an adventure.
William Feather
Life in the twentieth century undeniably has … such richness, joy and adventure as were unknown to our ancestors except in their dreams.
Arthur Compton
This is the only chance you will ever have on earth with this exciting adventure called life. So why not plan it, and try to live it as richly, as happily as possible?
Dale Carnegie
In the universe, there are things that are known, and things that are unknown, and in between, there are doors.
William Blake
If we want to go to space with humans, that’s for fun not for science. Human adventures in space are just sporting events.
Freeman Dyson
Roosevelt’s humor was broad, his manner friendly. Of wit there was little; of philosophy, none. What did he possess? Intuition, inspiration, love of adventure.
Emanuel Celler
I admire ‘Adventure Time’ for being a piece of art in the way that I think art should be. If you want to see it is poetry, you can, and if you don’t, you can watch a fun cartoon.
Rebecca Sugar
It’s very important that the music has a sense of adventure to it, and that it’s done by the seat of your pants. There’s a kind of nervy element about it.
Nick Cave
Danger is to adventure what garlic is to spaghetti sauce. Without it, you just end up with stewed tomatoes.
Tom Robbins
When I was a kid, ‘Land of the Lost’ was my favorite show, just because it was – in the landscape of Saturday morning cartoons – it was so unique. It was a live-action show and kids were in it, these creatures, these Sleestaks and dinosaurs. Every week was a different adventure. I couldn’t wait. I loved it so much.
Will Ferrell
My breakthrough as a reader was when I discovered the European adventure story writers – Alexander Dumas, Robert Louis Stevenson, Sir Walter Scott, to name a few.
Terry Brooks
I can’t get enough adventure,” Magnus said lightly. “And adventure cannot get enough of me.
Cassandra Clare
The last part of life is a spiritual concern. You need to find a context to put your life into, that will allow you to go through it with as much grace and balance as possible, even if there is rebellion and adventure and exploration and resistance.
James Cromwell
Don’t adventures ever have an end? I suppose not. Someone else always has to carry on on the story.
J. R. R. Tolkien
When the new becomes commonplace, people become accustomed to it. That’s a tribute to our sense of adventure.
John Glenn
Life is there ahead of you and either one tests oneself in its challenges or huddles in the valleys of a dreamless day-to-day existence whose only purpose is the preservation of a illusory security and safety. The latter is what the vast majority of people choose to do, fearing the adventure into the known.
Saul Alinsky
Plunge boldly into the thick of life, and seize it where you will, it is always interesting.
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
To learn a new language is, therefore, always a sort of spiritual adventure; it is like a journey of discovery in which we find a new world.
Ernst Cassirer
Having an adventure shows that someone is incompetent, that something has gone wrong. An adventure is interesting enough – in retrospect. Especially to the person who didn’t have it.
Vilhjalmur Stefansson
Maybe there is another who sees life not as a flickering candle but as a torch that can illuminate an undiscovered world.
Jimmy Buffett
You took me to adventure and to love. We two have shared great joy and great sorrow. And now I stand at the gate of the paddock watching you run in an ecstasy of freedom, knowing you will return to stand quietly, loyally, beside me.
Pam Brown
Science, freedom, beauty, adventure: what more could you ask of life?
Charles Lindbergh
I believe that to do anything in this world one needs a love for risk and adventure, and above all, to be able to do without what middle-class families call “future.”
Joan Miro
I reckon that there won’t be an intervention in the near future, because Georgia’s military adventure revealed the weakness of the Russian army.
Garry Kasparov
Life is full of adventure. Theres no such thing as a clear pathway.
Guy Laliberte
Then it was intoxicating. The smooth takeoff, and the free feeling of having the world drop away. Soon after leaving the ground, they were crossing patches of stratus that lay in the valleys as heavy and white as glaciers. North for the first time. It was still an adventure, as exciting as love, as frightening.
James Salter
Marriage is an adventure, like going to war.
Gilbert K. Chesterton
At the beginning of my career, I shot a lot more documentaries because I liked the adventure, and probably also because it was easier, and still is easier, for women DPs to shoot documentary than it is to shoot fiction.
Maryse Alberti
Mark Twain was an artist working at the highest level. He wrote a book, his masterpiece, The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn, that put America on the world stage for literature. It’s almost as if, if you start reading that book as a racist, you cannot finish it and still be a racist.
Val Kilmer
I am not trying to be young again. But I do feel the need to capture that energy in story form before it slips from my mind, to recount those adventures if not relive them.
Jon Weisman
The only thing I ran into is that I am a wanderlust, as far as travel and adventure. I will go off on any given moment with the family and friends to explore the world. I go around the world once a year. I go to Africa, you know, Russia, wherever… I love it.
John Travolta
Popular women use positive, optimistic language in their online profiles, not buzzwords like “future thinker”. Here are the ten most often used words I found: easy-going, love, laugh, laid-back, optimistic, outgoing, fun, down-to-earth, pleasure, adventure.
Amy Webb
Space offers extraordinary potential for commerce and adventure, for new innovations and new tests of will. As Americans, we can’t help but reach for the stars. It’s our nature. It’s our destiny.
Bill Frist
Older men are wiser and that is much cooler to me. I’ve never been one for going out clubbing or getting off my head, so I always gravitated to men who were similar. They just tended to be older. I think you have more of an adventure with an older man. And a happier journey.
Emilia Fox
I’ve always been a keen cyclist, I’m very close to the world of cycling. Not just cycling really – also walking, adventures, being a curious person, traveling to new countries.
Paul Smith
There are dreadful moments when death comes very near those we love, even if for the time being it passes by. But life is a great adventure, and the worst of all fears is the fear of living.
Theodore Roosevelt
It takes courage to lead a life. Any life.
Erica Jong
Whatever our personal burden or cross to bear might be, we are here. We live! We Learn! The Grand Adventure is under way for us. Terrible as our trials might be, we are blessed and not abandoned by God.
Elaine A. Cannon
Any coward can sit in his home and criticize a pilot for flying into a mountain in a fog. But I would rather, by far, die on a mountainside than in bed. What kind of man would live where there is no daring? And is life so dear that we should blame men for dying in adventure? Is there a better way to die?
Charles Lindbergh
What’s my weirdest adventure? Yikes, there’ve been so very many. Perhaps the pig+vegetable+Taiwanese-army-guys boat ride to the island off the coast of Taiwan qualifies as the weirdest. Or at least the most seasick.
Kate DiCamillo
I think I just have an idea in my head about how big an adventure game should be, so it’s hard for me to design one that’s much smaller than Grim Fandango or Full Throttle. There’s just a certain amount of scope needed to create a complex puzzle space and to develop a real story. At least with my brain, there is.
Tim Schafer
When their adventures do not succeed, however, they run away; but it was the mark of a brave man to face things that are, and seem, terrible for a man, because it is noble to do so and disgraceful not to do so.
Aristotle
For me an adventure is something that I can take an active part in but that I don’t have total control over.
Peter Croft
Following Christ is a wild adventure full or risk, frustration, excitement, and setbacks. It is not an evening stroll in a planned community along a well-manicured path.
Larry Crabb
The word “question” originates from the Latin root, quaestio, which means “to seek.” Inside the word “question” is the word “quest,” suggesting that within every question is an adventure, a pursuit which can lead us to hidden treasure.
Tom Wujec
We in middle age require adventure.
Carolyn Gold Heilbrun
I didn’t play or like a lot of board games as a child. I liked playing with my G.I. Joes and making up adventures for them.
Jonathan Ames
Kenneth Hari does not paint portraits as they are but as he is. I feel he is hiding something from me. To board a train into his mind would give me a ride into dark adventure.
Tennessee Williams
It may not be easy, life isn’t easy, but dreams keep you alive.
John Muir
