Quotes on Ships and the Sea (Hardcover)
Is it the draw of unknown lands, the rhythm of the waves, the thrill of adventure? Or is it the sea, something about the sea itself, which draws a sailor to his task? Confronting the raw elements of life sharing in her triumphs and her sorrows in ways no land-lubber will ever know, the sailor knows that his skill, and his ability to move with the pulse of the sea, skies and wind are all that stand between himself and eternity. I have never known an ex-sailor. It would be an anomaly. There are sailors and there are land lovers. And there really is nothing in between.
