Vacation Quotes
-
A vacation is like love - anticipated with pleasure, experienced with discomfort, and remembered with nostalgia.
Evan Esar -

Elena Ferrante
-
You feel like half of your life is a vacation when you go to these Barcelona music festivals and have all day to sound check or go to the pool.
Hamilton Leithauser -
Writing is my vacation from living.
Eugene O'Neill -
You always have to appeal to your audience. You always have to consider how well your project will do in terms of admissions. I abandoned many stories because of that. But I don't get too down about it. It's something I accepted from the time I decided to work in films. I could always do something else if I got sick of it, like draw manga, or make my own films. I found it pointless sitting in my house not working, though I'd like to go on extended vacations from time to time.
Hayao Miyazaki -
I have liberal friends. They are misguided, they are wrong. I disagree with them. I don't want them to vote. I want them to go on vacation in November.
Sean Hannity -
I find it pointless sitting in my house not working, though I like to go on extended vacations from time to time.
Hayao Miyazaki -
Most of us use ‘I’m waiting for God to reveal His calling on my life’ as a means of avoiding action. Did you hear God calling you to sit in front of the television yesterday? Or to go on your last vacation? Or exercise this morning? Probably not, but you still did it. The point isn’t that vacations or exercise are wrong, but that we are quick to rationalize our entertainment and priorities yet are slow to commit to serving God.
Francis Chan
-
Whenever I go anywhere but Italy for a vacation, I always feel vaguely disappointed, as if I have made a mistake.
Erica Jong -
There is a way of beholding nature which is a form of prayer, a way of minding something with such clarity and aliveness that the rest of the world recedes. It . . . gives the brain a small vacation.
Diane Ackerman -
Life is a vacation God gives to you!
Celedonio Romero -
Once you're finally in a place at Saturday Night Live that you're really comfortable, that's when you should probably be leaving, unfortunately. I think most people stay two or three years longer than they should, because it's very simple, the vacations are great, and you get good at what you do. It's like any job, you're like, "Oh, I know how to do this." You know it's a temporary thing, but it's easy not to walk away from. You find yourself going, "I'll leave next year, or I'll leave the year after." But it's a job you probably shouldn't be at for longer than five years, to be honest.
Horatio Sanz -
When I go on vacation I just like to do nothing - just hang out at the beach, go eat the best restaurants, and do nothing.
Georges St-Pierre -
The beach in Tel-Aviv I went to, it even looks and feels a little bit like Rio de Janeiro. Some other places are very European and I just like it. I thought it would be fun but it's a lot better than that. It's a lot more relaxed and a lot of fun, and I feel very secure, and I would tell my friends they should come here when they plan a vacation. Not only the history.
Georges St-Pierre
-
When people went on vacation, they shed their home skins, thought they could be a new person.
Aimee Friedman -
Our lives are structured by our memories of events. Event X happened just before the big Paris vacation. I was doing Y in the first summer after I learned to drive. Z happened the weekend after I landed my first job. We remember events by positioning them in time relative to other events.
Joshua Foer -
The best vacation is still a book, a renewable ticket to places real and imaginary.
Charles McGrath -
I never want to travel while I'm on vacation anymore. The only vacations I want to take now are ones where I just go and sit somewhere.
Hamilton Leithauser -
When you're on official trips it's not a vacation, it's serious work.
Sophie Grégoire Trudeau -
He's been on vacation for a year and month. Captain Kirk never left the helm when the Enterprise was under attack.
Eddie Griffin
-
On a television show, you basically make a movie a week. Movies take three months - it's crazy. They're so slow, it's like vacation to me.
Eva Longoria -
Too many vacations that last too long, too many movies, too much TV, too much video game playing - too much undisciplined leisure time in which a person continually takes the course of least resistance gradually wastes a life. It ensures that a person's capacities stay dormant, that talents remain undeveloped, that the mind and spirit become lethargic and that the heart remains unfulfilled.
Stephen Covey -
Laughter is an instant vacation.
Milton Berle -
I go on vacation strictly to relax - to kick back with a good book and do nothing else but read, sleep and eat.
Morgan Freeman
