“You know how often we have longed for a sea voyage, as the fulfillment of all our dreams of poetry and romance, the realization of our highest conceptions of free, joyous existence. Let me assure you, my dears. that going to sea is not at all the thing that we have taken it to be. Harriet Beecher Stowe, Sunny Memories of Foreign Lands.” — Susan Wiggs, Harriet Beecher Stowe
You know how often we have longed for a sea voyage, as the fulfillment of all our dreams of poetry and romance, the realization of our highest conceptions of free, joyous existence.
Let me assure you, my dears. that going to sea is not at all the thing that we have taken it to be.
Harriet Beecher Stowe, Sunny Memories of Foreign Lands.
