Kenneth Grahame
There’s nothing––absolutely nothing––half so much worth doing as messing about in boats.
Kenneth Grahame, Wind in the Willows

Stig Dagerman
Med människor i en liten båt sker något sällsamt. Vad de upplever är att de känner sig ensamma. Vad de känner är att de är ensamma tillsammans, tillsammans med de andra i båten. Därför uppstår mellan människor i små båtar en tillfällig tillgivenhet. Man har ju bara varandra och djupa vatten är skrämmande och små båtar är mycket bräckliga. Var och en blir den andres livboj. Är inte du rädd så inte är jag det.
Stig Dagerman, A Burnt Child
