Where're the big-talkin' men who say they've been in so many fights and they know how to use their fists and guns to solve every problem in this whole wide world?" "I don't know where they are."

“That's something every islander knows--there's always going to be another hurricane. Another storm.

To the waves of the ocean that never stops rising even when it’s bound to crash at the shores. We will encounter many defeats and must learn over and over again that courage is the only way to stand and win at life.”
