Just to pass some time on Deck

A Sailor Magazines favourite quotes about sailing:

“The church says the earth is flat, but I know that it is round, for I have seen the shadow on the moon, and I have more faith in a shadow than in the church.”

-Ferdinand Magellan

"For the execution of the voyage to the Indies, I did not make use of intelligence, mathematics or maps."

-Christopher Colombus

A Clever little quote about the risks one must take when setting sail.

Proof that sailing means more than expanding empires. Magellan shows that sailing and explorering are perfect ways in which the churches teachings are questioned.

Take that Church!
