Soil forth—steer for the deep waters only, Reckless O Soul, exploring, I with thee, and thou with me, For we are bound where mariner has not yet dared to go, And we will risk the ship, ourselves and all. O my brave soul! O farther, farther sail! O daring joy, but safe! are they not all the seas of God? O farther, farther, farther sail! —Walt Whitman, Passage to India
