“Because only when you risk, can you find the reward, just as my father had taught me. One can stay home and avoid the pirates, or get on the ocean and experience life.”

“... Both are terrible, hopeless situations where fate has wrested all control from your hands. Yet you two dared confront fate, to say. 'We're not done yet.' You said to fate, 'You may control our circumstance but not what we think, not who we are, not how we react.' Fate gives to those who challenge it. It must. To be so bold is remarkable, whether you know it or not.”

“I have learned a lot of lessons doing my job that might be valuable to other people. For example, there are times in life that you're just going to have to stand in a hole filled with manure to get the job done, and when that happens you do it and then you just wash it off and take satisfaction that you did a good job.”

“What Is Love?
Love is a white flame - And a smouldering smoky fire
It is a green tree - And a grey cathedral spire
Love is an ecstasy - pure - It stirs in mud and slime
It is youth and delight - It is cold and sublime
There is none shall say
What love is - or is not,
And which of us shall say:
'Dwell!' or 'Depart!'
Love will not stay
And will not leave the heart
At our desire or plea.
But oh ! for me
This would I pray
That Love might be a tree
Rooted in time - for all eternity.”
