Sailing’s Contribution to theAmerican Experience

Virtual Exhibition of Sailing in American Literature

• The sail, the play of its pulse so like our own lives: so thin and yet so full of life, so noiseless when it labors hardest, so noisy and impatient when least effective. - Henry David Thoreau

• Twenty years from now, you'll regret the things you didn't do, rather than the things you did do. So cast off the bow lines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover. - Mark Twain

• for whatever we lose (like a you or a me)it’s always ourselves in the sea - e.e. cummings

• The sea does not reward those who are too anxious, too greedy. Or too impatient. - Anne Morrow Lindbergh

• Like the skipper of a grounded ship, one must sometimes go forward by going back. - John Barth
