David Baldacci Quotes

I always say it is not the arrival; it is the journey.

Sometimes it's more about the journey than the destination.

Winning and losing aren't all they're cracked up to be, but the trip to the destination is.

And so, does the destination matter? Or is it the path we take? I declare that no accomplishment has substance nearly as great as the road used to achieve it. We are not creatures of destinations. It is the journey that shapes us. Our callused feet, our backs strong from carrying the weight of our travels, our eyes open with the fresh delight of experiences lived.

The journey, not the arrival, matters; the voyage, not the landing.

The journeythe journey, I promise you, is the greatest thing ever. The destination always takes care of itself.

Sometimes it's a little better to travel than to arrive

The journey is more important than where you end up.

The journey is the treasure.

Every day is a journey, and the journey itself is home.

A journey is a person in itself; no two are alike. And all plans, safeguards, policing, and coercion are fruitless. We find that after years of struggle that we do not take a trip; a trip takes us.

There's no destination. The journey is all that there is, and it can be very, very joyful.

Sometimes it's the journey that teaches you a lot about your destination.

It is better to travel well than to arrive.

I've been things and seen places.

My life is longer because of the journeys I have taken.

I enjoy being in the middle of my journey much more than being close to the end.

Life is just a journey and how you traverse it is what matters.

The longest journey begins with a single step, not with the turn of an ignition key. That’s the best thing about walking, the journey itself. It doesn’t much matter whether you get where you’re going or not. You’ll get there anyway. Every good hike brings you eventually back home. Right where you started.

The journey is the reward

Where we are going, I don't know. It doesn't seem to be the place that is important but the steps in between.

I hope that you, too, will choose to have a journey instead of just a life. Actually, I hope it's a full on expedition.

There is no difference in the destination, the only difference is in the journey.

A true journey, no matter how long the travel takes, has no end.

Only the journey matters.
