Road Quotes

Every road, chosen or not, still has to be walked.

Here the road stands in for a path in life - sometimes picked by parents rather than by the person walking it, sometimes a touring schedule between other work. Readers exploring this theme may also like Go.

When I first went out on the road with Larry Williams, there was also, like, The Coasters, The Drifters, and The Flamingos.

Quotes by Aaron Neville

I don't want to be on the road all my life.

Go Quotes
