SEA QUOTES EVERY SAILOR SHOULD KNOW

  1. Leonardo da Vinci: “He who loves practice without theory is like the sailor who boards ship without a rudder and compass and never knows where he may cast.”
  2. Robin Lee Graham “At sea, I learned how little a person needs, not how much.”
  3. Unknown: “The good seaman weathers the storm he cannot avoid, and avoids the storm he cannot weather.”
  4. Thomas Carlyle: “A man without a goal is like a ship without a rudder.”
  5. Grace Hopper: “A ship in port is safe, but that’s not what ships are built for.”
  6. Seneca: “If one does not know to which port one is sailing, no wind is favorable.”
  7. William Arthur Ward: “The pessimist complains about the wind; the optimist expects it to change; the realist adjusts the sails.”
  8. Jimmy Dean: “I can’t change the direction of the wind, but I can adjust my sails to always reach my destination.”
