I will not live my whole life for a few moments of bliss, but I am happy to risk it for them
Hendri Coetzee, Living the Best Day Ever

Paul Theroux
It was an image that afterwards often came to me when I was traveling in the Pacific, that this ocean was as vast as outer space, and being on this boat was like shooting from one star to another, the archipelagoes like galaxies, and the islands like isolated stars in an empty immensity of watery darkness, and this sailing was like going slowly from star to star, in vitreous night.
Paul Theroux, The Happy Isles of Oceania, Part 1
