This & Nothing Else

The Polynesians used to go around the world. They sailed everywhere. They traveled to island on canoes, mostly for war. Back in the day they had old wood canoes, paddle across channels, show up and go to war.Our ancestors, The'd have to paddle across the channel, hit land and the have to fight... so for us the race and paddling is our fight.

If you have built castles in the air, your work need not be lost; that is where they should be. Now put foundations under them.
- Henry David Thoreau, Walden

So use all that is called fortune. Most men gamble with her, and gain all and lose all, as her wheel rolls... A political victory, a rise of rents, the recovery of your sick or the return of your absent friend, or some other favorable event raises your spirits, and you think good days are preparing for you. Do not believe it. Nothing can bring you peace but yourself. Nothing can bring you peace but the triumph of principles. 
- Pat Tillman
