Sarah Dessen Quotes

One approaches the journey's end. But the end is a goal, not a catastrophe.

The road leading to a goal does not separate you from the destination; it is essentially a part of it.

It doesn't matter where you start out, it's where you end up.

It doesn't matter where you are coming from. All that matters is where you are going.

It's been a long way, but we're here.

We know we are on the right path. Our journey is not finished, but we have come a long way.

Experience suggests it doesn't matter so much how you got here, as what you do after you arrive.

The further you go, the more you have to be proud of. At the same time, in order to come a long way, you have to be behind to begin with. IN the end, though maybe it's not how you reach a place that matters. Just that you get there at all.

It's not where you start but where you finish that counts.

Where you start is not as important as where you finish.

Never look down to test the ground before taking your next step; only he who keeps his eye fixed on the far horizon will find the right road.

We advance on our journey only when we face our goal, when we are confident and believe we are going to win out.

It's a long old road, but I know I'm gonna find the end.

The traveller has reached the end of the journey!

It is good to have an end to journey toward, but it is the journey that matters in the end.

It is not the going out of port, but the coming in, that determines the success of a voyage.

Once you're halfway home, you know that you can probably get the rest of the way there.

In business, I believe that if you focus only on the journey, you'll miss the whole point of the enterprise. There has to be a goal, an end game of some kind; otherwise, you're just spinning your wheels. Yes, the journey is important, but the destination is important, too.

The summit is what drives us, but the climb itself is what matters.

Winning and losing isn't everything; sometimes, the journey is just as important as the outcome.

I'm not even close to where I want to be; it's just a little mini step on the way. This is only the beginning.

Wherever you get to is better than where you started. To stay on the road is a massive achievement.

Endure the journey that you take to reach your top moment. You might not get there right now but when you do, remember what you did to get there.

Any road followed precisely to its end leads precisely nowhere.

Success is not a destination, but the road that you’re own.
