“The rhetorical disaster of proclaiming war on terror is now becoming clear. The world is full of terror, just as it is filled with beauty and kindness. It can never be exterminated, only borne.
Every traveler knows this – every traveler expects it – because an understanding of our world’s shifting ambiguities is travel’s most mysterious gift.”
