Where lies the final harbor, whence we unmoor no more? In what rapt ether sails the world, of which the weariest will never weary? Where is the foundling’s father hidden? Our souls are like those orphans whose unwedded mothers die in bearing them: the secret of our paternity lies in their grave, and we must there to learn it.
Herman Melville
Image
I do know that when my children are older and telling their own children about their grandmother, they will be able to say that she stood in the storm...and when the wind did not blow her way - - and it surely has not - - she adjusted her sails.
Elizabeth Edwards

But oars alone can ne'er prevail To reach the distant coast The breath of Heaven must swell the sail, Or all the toil is lost.
William Cowper

I would never talk just to be social. Now, to sit down with a bunch of engineers and talk about the latest concrete forming systems, that's really interesting. Talking with animal behaviorists or with someone who likes to sail, that's interesting. Information is interesting to me. But talking for the sake of talking, I find that quite boring.

O friend, never strike sail to a fear!
Ralph Waldo Emerson
Image
All too often, when it comes to our own minds, we are surprisingly mindless. We sail on, blithely unaware of how much we are missing, of how little we grasp of our own thought process - and how much better we could be if only we'd taken the time to understand and to reflect.
Maria Konnikova

I wish to have no connection with any ship that does not sail fast for I intend to go in harm's way.
John Paul Jones
Image
To desire and strive to be of some service to the world, to aim at doing something which shall really increase the happiness and welfare and virtue of mankind - this is a choice which is possible for all of us and surely it is a good haven to sail for.
Henry Van Dyke
Image
Instead of decaying in a safe harbour, sail to the unsafe oceans!
Mehmet Murat Ildan

On a day when the wind is perfect, the sail just needs to open and the world is full of beauty. Today is such a day.

To run over better waters the little vessel of my genius now hoists her sails, as she leaves behind her a sea so cruel.

Abby Sunderland

If you do things by the job, you are perpetually driven: the hours are scourges. If you work by the hour, you gently sail on the stream of Time, which is always bearing you on to the haven of Pay, whether you make any effort, or not.
Charles Dudley Warner

Gray sail against the sky, Gray butterfly! Have you a dream for going. Or are you the blind wind's blowing?

Don't try to sail your ship now by how the wind is going to be in three days. You have to sail with the winds are they are now.

You can't change the wind but you can set your sails.
