Do not allow your dreams of a beautiful world to lure you away from the claims of men who suffer here and now.
A ship in port is safe; but that is not what ships are built for. Sail out to sea and do new things.
Sail on Silver Girl,
Sail on by
Your time has come to shine
All your dreams are on their way
See how they shine
If you need a friend
I'm sailing right behind…
Mother, mother ocean, I have heard you call.
Wanted to sail upon your waters
Since I was three feet tall.
You've seen it all, you've seen it all.Watched the men who rode you,
Switch from sails to steam.
And in your belly you hold the treasure
That few have ever seen.
Most of them dreams,
Most of them dreams.
Don't go getting full of yourself becuase once you do, somebody's going to come and let the wind out of your sails
When you can’t change the direction of the wind — adjust your sails
The sea raises you to your feet. And dead calm.
Strands of light hold your hand. Now you have left
this shore. Now you are in the wind of an invisible sail.
Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn’t do than by the ones you did do.
Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things 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.
Perhaps we cannot raise the winds. But each of us can put up the sail, so that when the wind comes we can catch it.
