To be away from home and yet to feel oneself everywhere at home; to see the world, to be at the centre of the world, and yet to remain hidden from the world—impartial natures which the tongue can but clumsily define. The spectator is a prince who everywhere rejoices in his incognito.
I love traveling all over the world; but it's true: there's nothing like home.
People say, 'Where do you live?' and I say that theoretically, I live in London, but basically that's just where I go to change my suitcase. Otherwise, I'm always flying somewhere.
It's important to be a global citizen at the same time and appreciate different cultures and different people and different ways of life.
My connection with Brazil is so abstract. My blood and my way of thinking is Brazilian, but that's it. I don't tend to go back to the past, and although I have an apartment there, I rarely visit. When I move, I really move.
I live between Europe, America and Asia.
The traveler feels at home everywhere, because she is never at home anywhere.
I've been traveling around the world forever.
Hugh [Evans] called us. And obviously this has been on our radar for all the years it's been going on. And each year obviously reaches more and more people, and it's high profile. Hugh reached out to our manager just down the street. And we said we're here [ on GLOBAL CITIZEN in the Central Park] to help and do whatever we can.
I'm an adaptable nomad. I love Paris, I've been living in Los Angeles and New York since 1990. I love London, too. My roots are inside of me.
Because I don't belong entirely to Britain or the U.S. or India or Japan, I build my foundations in some way deeper than mere passports, and more in the light of where I'm going than of "where I come from."
I sort of lived half my life in California, half in England, so I am, I suppose, a little bit American.
I grew up all over the world. My dad was a doctor but not a career-type doctor. He was very curious, so he took the whole family and moved to Miami in the '70s, and we lived there for a couple of years. Then we continued like that and lived in various places around the world.
I lived abroad most of my life in insular international communities.
[Dwight Eisenhower was ] a citizen of the world.
I regard myself as an international man, a citizen of the earth.
I'm kind of a globetrotter. I've been traveling since I was born and living in different locations.
I am, I flatter myself, completely a citizen of the world. In my travels through Holland, Germany, Switzerland, Italy, Corsica, France, I never felt myself from home.
I am a Mexican that has been lucky enough to travel the world, speaking English, but with a heart that speaks a universal language.
Long-term, perpetual travel is the dream of many. But surprisingly, for such a popular desire, few people realize how accessible it is.
I divide my time between homes in Arizona and England, six months a year in each place.
I am often asked what can people do to become a good global citizen? I reply that it begins in your own community.
Since turning professional at 18, I have travelled the world playing the game that I love and consider myself a global player. As the World No.1 right now, I wish to be a positive role model and a sportsperson that people respect, and enjoy watching.
I'm like a gypsy. I've got a place in Beijing, a place in New York, a place in west Africa; I'm working on a place in Colombia. I like the fact that painting is portable - and I've wanted my entire life to be able to see the world, to respond to it, and make that my life's work.
As a global citizen, I sometimes feel like denying my identity.
