Interesting sailing quotes...

“Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed in the things that you didn’t do than the ones you did do, so throw off the bow lines.
Sail away from the safe harbour. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover!”
- Mark Twain


“In rough seas, sometimes it’s too dangerous to boil water. But as I’m a girl, my nutritionist acknowledges that I have to eat chocolate each day!”
- Samantha Davies



"Trying to have wisdom without application is like trying to catch the winds without raising the sails!" A sea quote by Thomas Russell


"Great people are not affected by each puff of wind that blows ill. Like great ships, they sail serenely on, in calm sea or tempest!"


"To me, nothing made by man is more beautiful than a sailboat under way in fine weather, and to be on that sailboat is to be as close to heaven as I expect to get. It is unalloyed happiness."


“The beauty of those immense rolling waves is endless and there is a kind of eternal feeling about their majestic rolling that will live forever!” - A sea quote by Ellen MacArthur



"The winds of grace are blowing, but it is you that must raise your sails"


"The fisherman know that the sea is dangerous and the storm terrible, but they have never found these dangers sufficient for remaining ashore." - Vincent Van Gogh
