Le voyage commence par un desir, il se termine par un souvenir

e-mail, in French, received today from Mithra Travel, Damascus, Syria, offering travel to Syria, Lebanon and Jordan. The website has many beautiful images of the places it promises to take me. The e-mail ends with a postscript:

Le voyage commence
par un desir,
il se termine par un souvenir.

The voyage begins
with a wish,
it ends with a memory.
