The reason most people never reach their goals is that they don't define them, or ever seriously consider them as believable or achievable. Winners can tell you where they are going, what they plan to do along the way, and who will be sharing the adventure with them. – Denis WatleyRate it:
To the well-organized mind, death is but the next great adventure. – J. K. RowlingRate it:
When you see someone putting on his Big Boots, you can be pretty sure that an adventure is going to happen. Always watch where you are going. Otherwise you may step on a piece of the Forest that was left out by mistake. – A. A. Milne, Winnie-the-PoohRate it:
Your travel life has the aspect of a dream. It is something outside the normal, yet you are in it.

But you are like the Vikings who have gone into a world of adventure, and home is not home until you return. – Agatha ChristieRate it:
Life is a mysterious adventure full of unexpected happenings and captivating episodes with intriguing revelations. We just have to squeeze it gently and enjoy each drop. That is philosophy. (( "Waiting for the pieces to fall into place" ) – Erik PevernagieRate it:
Life is either a daring adventure or nothing. – Helen KellerRate it:
The galleries are full of critics. They play no ball, they fight no fights. They make no mistakes because they attempt nothing. Down in the arena are the doers. They make mistakes because they try many things. The man who makes no mistakes lacks boldness and the spirit of adventure. He is the one who never tries anything. His is the brake on the wheel of progress. And yet it cannot be truly said he makes no mistakes, because his biggest mistake is the very fact that he tries nothing, does nothing, except criticize those who do things. – David M. ShoupRate it:
Life is either a daring adventure or nothing. Security does not exist in nature, nor do the children of men as a whole experience it. Avoiding danger is no safer in the long run than exposure. – Helen KellerRate it:
People who make no mistakes lack boldness and the spirit of adventure. They are the brakes on the wheels of progress. – Dr. Dale E. TurnerRate it:

Any coward can sit in his home and criticize a pilot for flying into a mountain in a fog. But I would rather, by far, die on a mountainside than in bed. What kind of man would live where there is no daring And is life so dear that we should blame men for dying in adventure Is there a better way to die – Charles Augustus Lindbergh, Jr.Rate it:
It has just been twenty-three years since I began to wander. In the next twenty-three years I wonder if there will come a time when life is no longer a wonderful adventure; when there is not some interesting experience in things or personalities waiting just around the corner. If that time does come, I hope that my release will be swift. – Roy Chapman Andrews, Ends of the Earth, 1929Rate it:

Adventure isn't hanging on a rope off the side of a mountain. Adventure is an attitude that we must apply To the day to day obstacles of life - Facing new challenges, seizing new opportunities, Testing our resources against the unknown and in the process, Discovering our own unique potentional. – John AmattRate it:
Adventure must be held in delicate fingers. It should be handled, not embraced. It should be sipped, not swallowed at a gulp. – Ashley Dukes, The Man with a Load of Mischief (1924)Rate it:
An adventure differs from a mere feat in that it is tied to the externally unattainable. Only one end of the rope is in the hand, the other is not visible, and neither prayers, nor daring, nor reason can shake it free. – William BolithoRate it:
An adventure is only an inconvenience rightly considered. An inconvenience is an adventure wrongly considered. – G. K. ChestertonRate it:
