Quotes by Eliot Stein (?)

“Travel remains an exercise in curiosity, and the world is always so much richer than our assumptions of it.”
― Eliot Stein, Custodians of Wonder: Ancient Customs, Profound Traditions, and the Last People Keeping Them Alive

1 likes

“In an age when everything has seemingly been explored and explained, and where cynicism so often overshadows curiosity and wonder, these cultural custodians remind us how much there still is to discover, and invite us to fall back in love with the world.”
― Eliot Stein, Custodians of Wonder: Ancient Customs, Profound Traditions, and the Last People Keeping Them Alive
