“In many ways fast cruise is tougher than being out to sea. When you're out, you just do your job, and take in stride what comes along.

― Robert G. Williscroft, Operation Ivy Bells

Alright then….alright. What a strange dream…I feel as though I’ve been eaves dropping in tempo…but not in time!” The hare hopped off, humming passages from Miles Davis’ “Kind of Blue”.”
― Kevin Moccia, The Beagle and the Hare
