Nepal Quotes

“When we reached the prayer flags and a pile of rocks that marked the highest point on the pass, the view was brilliant. There was hardly a cloud in the sky. To the south we could see rolling foothills: the gentle ups and downs that we’d walked through. Some of the hillsides were red or purple with rhododendron blossoms. To the west and east there was a muddle of ridges and spurs. To the north, there were several mighty snow-capped himals. The real Himalayan giants were mostly east of where we stood. We were a very long way from anywhere. We were a very long way from help.”

“When I lived in Nepal for almost a decade, something always touched me deeply — the people never imposed their language on me. Instead, they welcomed me with warmth, patience, and a genuine desire to connect. I learned at my own pace, and even when I struggled, they smiled, encouraged, and made space for me to feel at home. What I carry with me today are not just memories, but moments of kindness — sharing food, festivals, stories, laughter, and the breathtaking beauty of a culture that embraces diversity with open arms. Nepal didn’t just give me years of life; it gave me a sense of belonging. And for that, I remain forever grateful.”

“Questo libro raccoglie l'esperienza del mio viaggio in Nepal, un viaggio indimenticabile che mi ha permesso di vedere il mondo con occhi diversi. Un itinerario iniziato e terminato a Kathmandu, accompagnato per gran parte del viaggio dalla guida locale Mahesh che oltre a darmi informazioni sui luoghi, mi parlava anche della storia del Paese e le divinità. Ho potuto ammirare posti straordinari da Pokhara a Dhulikel, visitando monasteri buddisti/induisti e luoghi sacri, ma anche vedere le devastazioni causate del terremoto del 2015. Il libro è stato creato come una sorta di guida-diario (con anche qualche foto), narrando le mie sensazioni e i luoghi visitati, senza trascurare qualche piccola curiosità e un evento a dir poco tragicomico.”

“Toliko sam već dugo bio u Nepalu, a još nisam video Himalaje. Nepalci su me sažaljivo gledali, stranci se čudili, prijatelji me opravdavali sigurni da ću jednom tamo otići. Za sve sam bio nevernik koji stoji na pragu Kuće bogova, vrata od duginih boja su mu otvorena, svetlost je put, a on stoji, čeka; a možda i ne zna gde je, možda se nije probudio. Martin kaže da je u Himalajima ono što tražim. Jedino tamo ljudi će se setiti svog pravog davnog zaboravljenog lika. Ona je tamo, zagledana jedne večeri u daleku zvezdu, videla sebe u njoj, kao u ogledalu. Nebesa su ogledalo, a zvezde, modre, sjajne, ljudske oči.”

“The average Mexican lives longer now than the average Briton did in 1955. Infant mortality is lower today in Nepal than it was in Italy in 1951. The proportion of Vietnamese living on less than $2 a day has dropped from 90 per cent to 30 per cent in twenty years. The rich have got richer, but the poor have done even better.”

“In Nepal, the phenomenon is reversed. Time is a stick of incense that burns without being consumed. One day can seem like a week; a week, like months. Mornings stretch out and crack their spines with the yogic impassivity of house cats. Afternoons bulge with a succulent ripeness, like fat peaches. There is time enough to do everything - write a letter, eat breakfast, read the paper, visit a shrine or two, listen to the birds, bicycle downtown to change money, buy postcards, shop for Buddhas - and arrive home in time for lunch.”

“There are so many shocking things. Is it more shocking that there are children sold into slavery in every city in the world and right under our noses or that there are villages in Nepal where there are no children left because they have all been kidnapped for sex trafficking, or that there are generations of slaves in some countries where indentured slavery passes from generation to generation and that kids grow into adults not knowing that another world - another life - exists?”

“While I've always been critical about this peddling of spiritual materialism, it wasn't until I went to Nepal that I came face-to-face with my own spiritual materialism. The thing is, Kathmandu is noisy, and dusty, and crowded, and everywhere you go you see these same Western yoga teachers, hashish-smoking backpackers, and fair-trade shop owners, all seeking the stalls filled with amazing Buddha statues, hand carved mirrors, beautiful yak scarves, and thangka paintings. And everyone is buying stuff!”

“Each of the bracelets I wear is from a long trip I've taken. One is from Nicaragua. One is from Nepal. One is from Guatemala. One is from Laos. They don't come off. I walk into a lot of very high-level boardrooms now, and I present to distinguished conferences, but these bracelets remind me of the places I've been and the people I've met.”
