2. Translate the following quotations and comment upon them.
“I travel not to go anywhere, but to go. I travel for travel's sake. The great affair is to move.”
Robert Louis Stevenson

Charles Kuralt, On the Road With Charles Kuralt
“I think that travel comes from some deep urge to see the world, like the urge that brings up a worm in an Irish bog to see the moon when it is full.”
Lord Dunsany

Seneca

Daniel J. Boorstin
