In Shekhawati, the future looks at the past…
Update: or, the past and future look at each other, as Arun says in a comment. I have also changed the title of the post to ‘Future Tense’ as a nod to the deplorable state of many of the mansions / frescoes in Shekhawati.
Once you have travelled, the voyage never ends, but is played out over and over again in the quietest chambers. The mind can never break off from the journey - Pat Conroy
The traveler was active; he went strenuously in search of people, of adventure, of experience. The tourist is passive; he expects interesting things to happen to him. He goes "sight-seeing"
- Daniel J. Boorstin
All journeys have secret destinations of which the traveler is unaware
- Martin Buber
A good holiday is one that is spent among people whose notions of time are vaguer than yours
- J. B. Priestley
For the born traveller, travelling is a besetting vice. Like other vices, it is imperious, demanding its victim's time, money, energy and the sacrifice of comfort
- Aldous Huxley
