Joseph Conrad

"There is nothing more enticing, disenchanting, and enslaving than the life at sea.

Jacques Yves Cousteau

"The sea, once it casts its spell, holds one in its net of wonder forever." 

JRR Tolkien

"Not all who wander are lost." 

Mark Twain

“Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn’t do than by the ones you did do. 

So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.”
