The People's Republic of China has not yet reached the military might of the Soviet Empire. It requires a little more time and a little more infusion of Western aid, loans, technology and the hard currency of our tourists.
Barbara Amiel, British Journalist (1940-  )
The worst thing about being a tourist is having other tourists recognize you as a tourist.
Russell Baker, American Journalist (1925-  )
I am leaving the town to the invaders: increasingly numerous, mediocre, dirty, badly behaved, shameless tourists.
Brigitte Bardot, French Actress (1934-  )
I represent central Florida, which depends on tourists for its economic survival. We need people to be able to get to the State and enjoy it.
Corrine Brown, American Politician (1946-  )
Prayer for many is like a foreign land. When we go there, we go as tourists. Like most tourists, we feel uncomfortable and out of place. Like most tourists, we therefore move on before too long and go somewhere else.
Robert McAfee Brown, American Theologian (1920-2001)
We are all tourists in history, and irony is what we win in wars.
Anatole Broyard, American Critic (1920-1990)
It's tourists in New York. Everything is geared towards that. It's so hard on Broadway now for them to get people in there. They have to compete with so many other entertainments, so they have to bring a star in which puts people there out of work.
Delta Burke, American Actress (1956-  )
Since both its national products, snow and chocolate, melt, the cuckoo clock was invented solely in order to give tourists something solid to remember it by.

After I convinced them that I was a harmless novelist, I actually got them to give me a tour of the harem - which is usually off limits for tourists.
Dorothy Dunnett, Scottish Novelist (1923-2001)
The average tourist wants to go to places where there are no tourists.
Sam Ewing, American Athlete (1949-  )
The world does not need tourists who ride by in a bus clucking their tongues. The world as it is needs those who will love it enough to change it, with what they have, where they are.
Robert Fulghum, American Author (1937-  )
But the Spain which emerged around 1960, beginning with its economic miracle, created by the invasion of tourists, can no longer result in impassioned dedication on the part of its intellectuals, and even less on the part of foreign intellectuals.
Juan Goytisolo, Spanish Poet
The Broadway audience is made up of a greater percentage of tourists now. There's not nearly as much variety and danger and challenge in what's being offered.
John Lithgow, American Actor (1945-  )
I did not feel 'evil' when I wrote advertisements for Puerto Rico. They helped attract industry and tourists to a country which had been living on the edge of starvation for 400 years.
David Ogilvy, English Businessman (1911-1999)
Yeah, I had an idea to make a very scary movie, based on a kind of serial murderer that preys on tourists.
Brian De Palma, American Director (1940-  )
With everything it has to offer, Las Vegas is an obvious destination for tourists, as proven by the over 40 million visitors the city welcomes per year.
Jon Porter, American Politician (1955-  )
How many people have a family grave in the backyard? I'm sure I'll end up there, or I'll shrink my head and put it in a glass box in the living room. I'll get more tourists to Graceland that way.
Lisa Marie Presley, American Musician (1968-  )
We are each other's seventh largest trading partner, we are the fifth largest investor there and likewise, we have a lot of exchanges between political leaders, businessmen, tourists and school children too.
Sellapan Ramanathan, Statesman (1924-  )
The Smithsonian Festival of American Folklife, actually, was an effort to put something on the mall in Washington so American tourists could walk through America, and in their minds everything on the mall would be American.
Bernice Johnson Reagon, American Musician (1942-  )
The tourist may complain of other tourists, but he would be lost without them.
Agnes Repplier, American Writer (1855-1950)
