I wanted real adventures to happen to myself. But real adventures, I reflected, do not happen to people who remain at home: they must be sought abroad.
I am looking for someone to share in an adventure that I am arranging, and it’s very difficult to find anyone.
For the most banal even to become an adventure, you must (and this is enough) begin to recount it.[Pour que l’événement le plus banal devienne une aventure, il faut et il suffit qu’on se mette à le raconter.]
Before the adventure comes the unpacking.
Adventure is beyond price.
A life without adventure is likely to be unsatisfying, but a life in which adventure is allowed to take whatever form it will is sure to be short.
