Aphorisms about rest. Quotes about holidays and travel Holidays should be quotes

Just imagine: sea, sand, a light breeze blowing your hair... Can you imagine?

Here... And everything else is bullshit...


Yes, cover it all with sea foam, shells, corals and chocolate tan...ツ

I so wanted the sea

You've been missing me all year.

Saved, collected money,

To see what I am like.




“And finally, the sea!

Huge and unexpected, it rushed into the eyes and showered with persistent salty freshness. Usually we didn’t have the patience to reach it, and we ran down a steep path to the shore and, without having time to slow down, flew into the warm, gentle water...”

Fazil Iskander



Take a little sand from each beach where you relax, and over time you will get an original interior decoration

“And then I look up and see it - I - see it: the sea.

For the first time in these long days I really see him. And I hear his terrible voice, I feel his strongest smell and non-stop internal dance, an endless wave. Everything disappears and only this remains. In front of me. Above me. Like a revelation.

The veil of pain and fear that captivated my soul melts, the net of abomination, cruelty and nightmare that obscured my eyes is broken, the twilight of death that has clouded my mind dissipates, and in an unexpected light the desired clarity dawns on me, I finally see, and feel, and understand .

It seemed like a silent spy, even an accomplice. Or a frame, a stage, a decoration. Now I look at it and understand: the sea was everything. It was everything from the very beginning. I see it dancing around me, illuminated by an icy light, a triumphant, beautiful and immense monster. It was in the hands that brought death, in the dying dead, in thirst and hunger, in agony, meanness and madness, it was hatred and despair, pity and refusal, it was this blood and this flesh, this horror and this brilliance. There is no raft, no people, no words, no feelings, no actions - nothing. There are no guilty and innocent, condemned and saved.

There is only the sea.

Everything has become the sea."

Alessandro Baricco




“I love the sea, I like to look at the ebb and flow of the tides, alternating without rest or rest, indifferent to everything except their original purpose - to lick the shore and polish the stones. The surf has always been and will be after all of us. Our life itself is like the surf with its eternal dance of waves. Ebbs and flows, sometimes joys, sometimes sorrows.”

Julio Travieso Serrano



I don't want to go to the sea... I want to live there! Here.

Tips for vacationers




“If you've never seen the sea, I feel sorry for you, kid,” said Skipper, scratching behind his ear. - However, don’t worry. The fact is that the sea splashes in everyone. Only over time, some turn it into a stagnant swamp, others into a shallow lake, and still others into an endless ocean.... Svetlana Yagupova

Good morning is when it's 11:00

summer on the calendar

and outside the window is the sea...




In every person's life there is a moment when there is only one thing left - to be happy!


I want all my “Wants” to come true!



The sea is sensuality embodied.

The sea knows how to passionately love and hate, knows how to laugh and cry.

The sea rejects any attempts to bind him with spells, throws off any shackles. No matter how much you talk about it, there will always be something that you couldn’t even imagine...

Christopher Paolini


What is happiness?

Frederic Beigbeder



The sea does not reward those who are too worried, too greedy or too impatient... calm, calm, calm is what the sea teaches.

Anne Morrow Lindbergh




Sea, I want you.

Write down grievances in the sand, carve blessings in marble.

Pierre Buast.



“This is what she missed so much - the sea, her great neighbor for twenty-five years, the sea with its salty air, its angry gusts, its booming voice, its powerful breath, the sea that she saw every morning from her window in Poplars, which she breathed night and day, which I constantly felt near me and, without realizing it, I fell in love with as a living person...”

Guy De Maupassant



When you look at the sea for a long time, you begin to miss people, and when you look at people for a long time, you begin to miss the sea.

Haruki Murakami



“The sea bewitches, the sea kills, excites, frightens, and also makes you laugh, sometimes disappears, on occasion it disguises itself as a lake or piles up storms, devours ships, bestows wealth - and does not give answers; it is wise, and gentle, and strong, and unpredictable. But the main thing is that the sea is calling. The sea is nothing more than a constant call. It doesn’t stop for a moment, it fills you, it’s everywhere. You can not notice anything - it’s useless. The sea will still call you. These are other seas that you will never see; they are eternal and will patiently wait for you one step away from your life.”

Alessandro Baricco

Rest is sacred. We can say with confidence that every person thinks so. Except perhaps for workaholics. But otherwise, all people like to relax and devote their time to what they like. Leisure also occupies a certain place in oral culture. This refers to quotes about relaxation from great people. So I would like to list them.

On the importance of leisure

Many quotes about rest from great people successfully convey how important it really is. Immanuel Kant, an 18th century German philosopher, agreed with the importance of leisure. He said that rest after work is the undoubted and purest joy of all.

And this is not his only good phrase. Kant also said: “The greatest pleasure, in which there is no admixture, is rest after work.” In principle, the meaning is the same. However, it is not surprising why Kant often expressed himself in similar terms, since everyone knows how much he had to work. All my life, to be specific.

Janina Ipohorska, a Polish artist, writer and translator, once said: “The shortest distance between two points is the distance between the beginning of a vacation and its end.” And it’s impossible to disagree with this.

An American politician also said a good phrase. It sounded like this: “The best of all medicines are abstinence and rest.”

Deep meaning

Many quotes about relaxation are also philosophical in nature. For example, the American publicist William Channing said that rest and peace owe their sweetness only to work. This is true, because we all know with what pleasure we spend our holidays, remembering how many important things have been done over the past months at work.

But the French aphorist and theater critic Georges Elgozy said one interesting, truthful, but somewhat pessimistic thing. The phrase goes like this: “Pension is a vacation that is imposed on a person when all he can do is work.”

The American philosopher and artist has a more positive expression. It goes like this: “No one needs a vacation more than the person who has just returned from it.” By the way, many people put this phrase in their vacation statuses. Despite the fact that Elbert’s activities occurred in the first half of the 19th century, the expression remains vital to this day. And this is true. Sometimes people spend their holidays so intensely that after it returning to work becomes an impossible task.

Other quotes

There are many other sayings about rest. It is difficult to list them all, but it is a fact that the meaning of each aphorism is very familiar to us. An interesting phrase belongs to a Canadian musician named Andre Prevost. This man said: “A bed is a place where one rests, but two get tired.” There is no need to even explain the meaning here.

And also, when listing quotes about rest, it is worth noting the following phrase from the Spanish artist Pablo Picasso: “I rest when I work. And I get tired while receiving guests and doing nothing.” This expression characterizes many workaholics - those for whom work activity only brings joy.

Well, I would like to conclude with a phrase belonging to Rabindranath Tagore: “Rest and work are inseparable. Like the eye and eyelid.”

When so much is behind

In total, especially grief,

Don't expect anyone's support

Get on the train, get off by the sea.

Joseph Brodsky

We only feel the charm of our native speech when we hear it under foreign skies.

Boris Krieger

Travel reveals not so much our curiosity about what we are going to see, but rather our weariness from what we are leaving behind.

Allen Carr

The best employees work harder than others and rest more than others.

Tom Hopkins

Ah, these “current affairs”: even if they all went to hell at the same time, well, at least for a few days; and then we, having freed our souls into “carelessness,” would immediately remember all the important matters, which in the “current bustle” are absolutely impossible for anyone to remember.

V. Rozanov

Rest: what you do when no one is telling you what to do.

Joseph Prendergast

Imagine a thousand people making a journey together; if each of them were observant, then each would write a book of impressions completely different from the others; and yet there would still be a lot of interesting and apt things left to say to someone who would go on the same journey after them.

L. Mercier

If you have absolutely no time to rest, then it’s time to rest.

Sydney Harris

If you can't find time to rest, you'll soon have to find time to heal.

John Wainmaker

When the razor has served its purpose and can no longer be pointed, the barber sets it aside for a few weeks and it sharpens itself. We take care of inanimate objects, but do not take care of ourselves. What strongmen, what thinkers we would become if only from time to time we would put ourselves on the shelf and sharpen ourselves.

Mark Twain

I have learned that there is no better way to find out whether you like or dislike a person than to go on a trip with him.

Mark Twain

Travel only with those you love.

Ernest Hemingway

Travel teaches more than anything else. Sometimes one day spent in other places gives more than ten years of life at home.

Anatole France

But, despite everything, travel remains my great and true love. All my life, from my very first trip to Russia at the age of sixteen using the money I saved (sitting with the neighbor’s kids), I knew that I was ready to sacrifice everything for the sake of travel, that I would not regret any money on it. I remained faithful and constancy to this love, unlike my other hobbies. I treat travel the same way a happy mother treats a terrible, colicky, screaming baby around the clock - I absolutely don’t care what challenges await me. Because I love. Because it's mine.

Elizabeth Gilbert

Travel develops the mind, if, of course, you have one.

Gilbert Chesterton

Is it fair to reproach a traveler for spending so much time on the road, when overcoming the journey is the subject of his journey?

Kozma Prutkov

No one realizes the beauty of travel until he comes home and rests his head on an old familiar pillow.

Lin Yutang

A person who travels a lot is like a stone carried by water for many hundreds of miles: its roughness is smoothed out, and everything in it takes on soft, rounded shapes.

Jean Jacques Elisée Reclus

When you travel, the main thing is not to forget that the meaning is in the journey itself, and not in its end. If you rush too much, you will miss the purpose for which you are traveling.

Lamennay Felicite Robert

Travel must be serious work, otherwise it, unless you drink all day long, becomes one of the most bitter and at the same time the most stupid activities.

Gustave Flaubert

Traveling is a flirtation with life. It's like saying: “I would like to stay with you, I would like to love you, but I have to go out, this is my stop.”

Lisa Saint-Aubin-de-Teran

Traveling means debunking other people's misconceptions about other countries.

Aldous Huxley

Tourism turns a traveler into an inspector, his discoveries into an inspection, surprise into a statement, a wanderer into an unbelieving Thomas.

Frederic Beigbeder (99 francs)

Travel is like marriage. The main misconception is to think that you have them under control.

John Steinbeck

Don't think about what you'll say when you get back. Time is here and now. Seize the moment.

To change the world, you need to see it.

Will Traveler. TV series Traveler

Once a year, go somewhere you have never been before.

Dalai Lama

Jean-Jacques Rousseau

The section is constantly updated.

You cannot give everything to everyone, because there is a lot of everyone, but not enough of everything!

Rest- How much of this word!...

Stop, just a moment! You are a rest!


Dear work! Isn't it time for you to take a break from me?

Remote work is not only pleasant, but also around the clock.

A well-spent vacation is not when you have photos on VK and Odnoklassniki, but when they are hidden in hidden folders far, far away on your computer!

Forgot about your vacation? So, it's time to forget about work!

Extreme fatigue is when you don’t even have enough strength to rest.

Relaxing is good!

Rest is the replacement of one idleness with another.

It’s better to relax on someone else’s “hacienda” than to plow on your own!

No matter what country you go to on vacation, you will bring a souvenir from everywhere!

A difficult question: why work if the Chinese will do the same thing faster, better and cheaper?!

I often have the feeling that my vacation ends faster than it can begin...

It’s hard and monotonous without REST. This is the conclusion reached by recreational scientists, kayfologists, bedtheologists and bookologists. I'll go rest...!

You need to relax in a place where all attempts to attract you to work can be stopped with one phrase: “I’m in international roaming.”

From correspondence in ICQ:
- How do you rest?
- It’s hard to say, I’ve just started... But the sea is warm and clean.
- Swim there for me!
- How cunning! You will lie there on the sofa, and I will swim here?!

- Well, how was your vacation?
- Get hurt! I've been on the couch, had a bath, and gone on tours of local shops and supermarkets!

According to statistics, every person who gets sunburned on vacation in the sun has someone who will definitely slap you on the back and ask: “Well, how did you rest?”

Read the new aviation-erotic magazine "Play-Boing" while on vacation.

The worse the person returning from vacation looks, the better rested he was.

It's better to be last on the list of billionaires than first on the "Best Employees of the Month" list.

If your work does not evoke emotions in you, then you are a professional.

I wrote my resume and burst into tears....I'm so cool.

I bought a gel for problem areas. I'll paint my work!

Morning. Monday.
Chief: - Your eyes are red! Drank, or what?
- No! I missed work and cried!!!

How fast it flies: I didn’t even have time to wake up and was already late for work!

Best defense is attack. Therefore, instead of “explanatory”, always write “report”.

How the week goes: Monday... Tuesday... Wednesday... Thursday... Friday, Saturday and Sunday!

Always give 100% at work: 12% on Monday, 23% on Tuesday, 40% on Wednesday, 20% on Thursday and 5% on Friday.

A pre-planned day off from work on Wednesday automatically turns Tuesday into Friday.

On Sunday there is such sudden languor,
And on a weekday, I’d rather stay at home!
Vladimir Andreev


Work is what he is obliged to do, but Play is what he is not obliged to do. Therefore, making artificial flowers or carrying water in a sieve is work, but knocking down skittles or climbing Mont Blanc is fun.
Mark Twain

Rest: what you do when no one is telling you what to do.
Joseph Prendergast

Russian proverb

– When I retire, I won’t do anything. For the first five months I will just sit in a rocking chair.
- And then?
“And then... then I’ll start swinging.”

I took the first step towards a good rest... I quit!

In 2-3 years, it will be super cool to confidently write “2008–2017” on your resume. - have worked". Without any further clarification, where and by whom!

I was in Karaganda for almost a week, and at least someone would have called and asked: “Where are you?”...

– Until what time do you work today?
- I don’t know yet... I have 4 cubes here: with the letters Zh, O, P and A. So, until I put them together into a word, I won’t be able to leave work!

I am constantly haunted by smart thoughts. But I'm faster!

To get a smart idea into your head, you need to leave the roof slightly moved.

So... I'll write off algebra, literature is easy, forget about physics, they won't ask me about chemistry, I'll write off biology... That's it! I've done my homework - you can relax!

Mosquitoes have become more cunning: they fly up, sit on the bed, and then continue on foot (so that they cannot be heard).

How can I get to heaven if five of the seven deadly sins are a hobby???

Now the phrase “I’ve seen a lot of things in my life...” should be read as “I’m on the Internet around the clock”!

I'm looking for intimacy. Don't offer a job!

Seasonal office work:
- hibernation
- spring vitamin deficiency
- summer indifference
- autumn depression


Work has three advantages: Friday, salary and vacation.

The ancient holiday "Friday Evening" is celebrated for 3 days.

I drink coffee tea, tea coffee, milk juice, tea milk... And all because the cup at work needs to be washed at least sometimes.

How? Have you ever eaten dumplings in the shower? Yes, you just never were late for work!

Super promotion from the employer: 5 days of work for the price of one!

The end of the work week is a small orgasm!

The money I earned at work will last me the rest of my life if I die today at 15:00...

Look carefully! Do you see? Something flashed before my eyes!!! This is your weekend...

I'm looking for a job. Over the weekend I managed to forget where she was...

You have to pay for a vacation, but you have to overpay for a good one.

Don't lie low if you can't make money in bed.
