Gilbert K. Chesterton
  • The traveler sees what he sees, the tourist sees what he has come to see.

  • 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.

  • A good novel tells us the truth about its hero but a bad novel tells us the truth about its author.

  • Half a truth is better than no politics.

  • In matters of truth the fact that you don't want to publish something is, nine times out of ten, a proof that you ought to publish it.
