There was that sense of abandoning the familiar for the unknown that characterizes all journeys made for the first time.

Terry Brooks
About This Quote

We all feel that thrill of adventure when we finally embark on the trip of a lifetime. We find ourselves throwing away our old ways and habits, and abandoning everything that is familiar. This is what makes this particular journey so exhilarating, and what distinguishes it from all others. It is this feeling of novelty that makes us want to go again and again.
