Famous quotes containing the words trip and/or van:

    Childhood is an adventure both for children and for their parents. There should be freedom to explore and joy in discovery. The important discoveries for both parents and children seldom come at the points where the path is smooth and straight. It is the curves in that path to adventure that make the trip interesting and worthwhile.
    Lawrence Kutner (20th century)

    No construction stiff working overtime takes more stress and straining than we did just to stay high.
    —Gus Van Sant, U.S. screenwriter and director, and Dan Yost. Bob Hughes (Matt Dillon)
