Quotes by Tim Cahill

“A journey is best measured in friends, not in miles. ”
― Tim Cahill

5 people liked it

“Most of us abandoned the idea of a life full of adventure and travel sometime between puberty and our first job. Our dreams died under the dark weight of responsibility. Occasionally the old urge surfaces, and we label it with names that suggest psychological aberrations: the big chill, a midlife crisis.”
― Tim Cahill, Jaguars Ripped My Flesh

“An adventure is never an adventure when it happens. An adventure is simply physical and emotional discomfort recollected in tranquility.”
