When a crew and a captain understand each other to the core, it takes a gale, and more than a gale, to put their ship ashore.

Hear and attend and listen; for this is what befell and be-happened and became and was, O my Best Beloved, when the Tame animals were wild. The dog was wild, and the Horse was wild, and the Cow was wild, and the Sheep was wild, and the Pig was wild -as wild as wild could be - and they walked in the Wet Wild Woods by their wild lones. But the wildest of all the wild animals was the Cat. He walked by himself and all places were alike to him

When a crew and a captain understand each other to the core, it takes a gale, and more than a gale, to put their ship ashore.

The tumalt and shouting dies, The captains and the kings depart. Still stands thine ancient sacrifice, An humble and a contrite heat. Lord God of Hosts, be with us yet, Lest we forget, lest we forget.

Bite on the bullet, old man, and don't let them think you're afraid.

Let each man be judged by his deeds, I have paid my price to live with myself on the terms that I willed.

What stands if freedom fall?
