If traveling was free, you’d never see me again.

I don’t like walking, I don’t like shoes, and I don’t like roller skating in a wheelchair—too many wheels, and not enough sitting.

In every step you take, keep your feet firmly on the ground.

Only those thoughts which come from walking have any value

I like long walks, especialy when they are taken by people who annoy me.

Someday I will walk under the soul-blossom tree with my hand eternally woven in yours.

Some of the dairy people, who were also out of doors on the first Sunday evening after their engagement, heard her impulsive speeches, ecstasized to fragments, though they were too far off to hear the...

When I am walking in Central Park, I recognize the Italians. Because an Italian, even when he jogs, he’s dressed perfect.

Sure, I have nice shoes. They’re in my closet, collecting a patina of dust. My shoes were made for dancing, and that’s why they’re dusty, because my feet, unfortunately, were not made for dancing. My...

I am alarmed when it happens that I have walked a mile into the woods bodily, without getting there in spirit.

Walking in the mountain with bare foot, Teasing the flowers with heavy soot, Touching the grasses, climbing the horses, swinging the girlsIt is joyful, jolly like the flying. Swimming in the rivers, tearing the clothes...

The longest walk of your life does not happen when you walk great distances lonely but it happens when you walk very shortly with the boring people!

I was never afraid of the dark and I spent my youth walking through empty playgrounds at midnight, worried mothers telling girls to be careful and ”the world is an ugly place and not everyone...

From where I live now I can walk to the beach, if I have about three weeks.

Walking is also an ambulation of mind.

The long poem of walking manipulates spatial organizations, no matter how panoptic they may be: it is neither foreign to them (it can take place only within them) nor in conformity with them (it does...

We are happy to observe an increasing frequency of these pedestrian tours: to walk, is, beyond all comparison, the most independent and advantageous mode of travelling; Smelfungus and Mundungus may pursue their journey as they...

The promenade is a special subset of walking.

If I could not walk far and fast, I think I should just explode and perish.

I wasn’t fast asleep. But only because I was sleep walking, and I’m not a speed walker.

I breathe, I walk, I listen, I love. But not in that order, because right now I’m sitting down, testing my lung’s storage capacity, and ignoring you.

Children of the light, walk in the light.

There is nothing healthier for a man than to walk on his own two legs

Don’t panic. Midway through writing a novel, I have regularly experienced moments of bowel-curdling terror, as I contemplate the drivel on the screen before me and see beyond it, in quick succession, the derisive reviews,...

I once expected to spend seven years walking around the world on foot. I walked from Mexico to Panama where the road ended before an almost uninhabited swamp called the Choco Colombiano. Even today there...

I firmly believe that everyone deserves to live within walking distance of either beauty or convenience, if not both. (48)

Walkers are ‘practitioners of the city,’ for the city is made to be walked. A city is a language, a repository of possibilities, and walking is the act of speaking that language, of selecting from...

But how many chose to ignore the direct attack they laid on what is fed to all of us as ‘life,’ with its well-defined roads to factory and pool-hall, to work and pleasure, both organized,...

I loved being in London. Always walking everywhere, always out and about and always at markets, walking around Brick Lane and Covent Garden and Soho.

There were days when I still put on make up in case you’d come back,but I wear the same clothes and shower in the rainand eat when I can and sleep when I can,which is...
