“The difference between travel and tourism: is the
difference between walking in the hot sun to meet an angry person who is going
to insult me and then tell me his amazing story, and lying in the sun sipping a
cool drink and reading, say, Death in
Venice. The first is more profitable; the second more pleasant. Both are
enlightening.”—U.S. travel writer and novelist Paul Theroux quoted in Matthew Kronsberg,
“20,000 Questions: Paul Theroux,” The Wall Street Journal, Sept. 26-27,
2015
