Further to Ken Williams' post, I offer a quotation from Samuel Clemens (a.k.a. Mark Twain). Traveling to the Old World, seeking wealth in Nevada, piloting the Mississippi, or traveling through time, Clemens was an inveterate cruiser in his own right.

"Travel is fatal to prejudice, bigotry, and narrow-mindedness, and many of our people need it sorely on these accounts. Broad, wholesome, charitable views of men and things cannot be acquired by vegetating in one little corner of the earth all one's lifetime."
