The Captain

“To do something familiar and succeed is no surprise, but to try something new and fail--why, that is the start of an adventure.”
― Maryrose Wood, The Unmapped Sea

“That is the purpose of museums, of course. One does not go merely to collect facts and souvenirs and picture post cards, but to enlarge one's notion of all that has been, and all that is, and all that might be. In this way we begin to understand what part each of us was born to play in the marvelous tale of existence.”
― Maryrose Wood, The Unmapped Sea

“Hard-hearted people may be no fun to sit next to at parties, but they are just as entitled to earn a living as the rest of us. Fortunately-for them, at least-the need for insurance adjusters, tax collectors, theater critics, and the like continues to this very day.”
― Maryrose Wood, The Unmapped Sea

“When the impossible becomes merely difficult, that's when you know you've won.”
― Maryrose Wood, The Unmapped Sea
