Quotes About Adventure - 50 Best Travel and Adventure Quotes

A thousand ships through the dark nights sail, to mysterious lands and adventure's trail. With a thirst for to live life, I cannot rest, when one is finished, there's another quest. I travel paths into the unknown, with each path completed, I know I’ve grown. Though the dangers lurk at most every turn, I sense I’m protected; I've no concern. I try different things all of the time, There's not a mountain I’d not try to climb. Life is for my living so bring it on, I’ve never been broken except a bone. I’ll keep traveling across the seven seas, Enjoying the adventure, the ocean’s breeze.

Life, or at least some powerful people in it, can really put a damper on our plans sometime. I do most of my traveling in my mind these days. T.V. and the internet give me plenty of images to explore. Thank you for reading and commenting on my poetry, Jennifer. You've become a good friend here on Poetry Soup. Hugs, Bill

I agree, Kim. Unknowingly you touch off a pleasant memory of mine. Sara and I owned a Travel Agency in the 80's and the slogan on our business card was. "Air Land or Sea our services are free." Smiles and Blessings, Bill Thanks for the visit today.

"I can do all things through Christ which strengthens me", always got me going when it was tough. I matured and realized that verse had a lot more depth than I first considered. Smiles ~ Blessings my friend, Bill

Made my smile, Andrea, thanks. I still enjoy adventure, but like you, most is second hand or in my mind. I love to sit quietly and meditate, drifting off into the universe amongst the stars and visit lands of my imagination. My favorite place is the planet Serenity. I started a novel about it once but never finished it. It was to be the second in a series, but I stopped after the first book. I missed writing poetry and decided to return to poetry, primarily. Rambling again. lol Hugs my soul sister, Bill

Good Morning.This is 10:05 am in India now. How are you? I read your poem. Unending "thirst for life"; "I’ve never been broken except for a bone"; tremendous optimism. Indeed, a great work. I am reading your other poems too. I will, if you don't mind, share my opinions about them to you. Have a beautiful day!
