O sea! O tide! What wonderful life! Awaits us in the ocean. Adore! Implore! What wonderful mores! Awaits us in the open. We roar! We soar! What wonderful lore! Awaits lost trepidation. Forsake those blinds which you thought chains, to see through the illusion. Forsake those lies which you thought truths, so you can have perception of that which does not hide from us, but we’ve betrayed it still. Though of both life and death, mortals shall ne’er bend to their wills, but of sole life, though not thou death, thou just might; before going into the ever unknown day-night.

Odysseus on the Sea: First Sail
O sea! O tide! What wonderful life! Awaits us in the ocean. Adore! Implore! What wonderful mores! Awaits us in the open. We roar! We soar! What wonderful lore! Awaits lost trepidation. Forsake those blinds which you thought chains, to see through the illusion. Forsake those lies which you thought truths, so you can have perception of that which does not hide from us, but we’ve betrayed it still. Though of both life and death, mortals shall ne’er bend to their wills, but of sole life, though not thou death, thou just might; before going into the ever unknown day-night.
