Charles Baudelaire

"Leaving for leaving's sake, Hearts light as balloons: Let's go!" - Charles Baudelaire, Le Voyage

From his poem Le Voyage, this quotation beautifully captures the fearless spirit of the traveler. He dedicated it to Maxime Du Camp, his contemporary, and an avid travel diarist who visited absolutely everywhere. 

In this illustration, a fleet of hot air balloons strive upward, and a stray tether-line suggests an open road in the space between.
