Life and suitcases

JUVENALThose literate Brits. A London newspaper story contains two great travel quotes - one from a 21st century high fashion designer, one from a Roman satirist of 20 centuries ago:

Diane von Furstenberg - “When you figure out your suitcase, you figure out your life.”

Juvenal - “Travel light and you can sing in the robber’s face.”

I like the old quote better than the new one. Might as well throw in the old Spanish proverb “On a long journey, even a straw weighs heavy.”

Read the story from the Telegraph.
