We all become great explorers during our first few days in a new city, or a new love affair. Mignon McLaughlin
All explorers are seeking something they have lost. It is seldom that they find it, and more seldom still that the attainment brings them greater happiness than the quest. Arthur C. Clarke
It is possible, reading standard histories, to forget half the population of the country.

The very invisibility of women, the overlooking of women, is a sign of their submerged status. Howard Zinn
I hate travelling and explorers. Claude Lévi-Strauss
