JFK QUOTE

I really don't know why 

it is that all of us are so 

committed to the sea, 

except I think it's because 

in addition to the fact that 

the sea changes, 

and the light changes, 

and ships change, 

it's because we all 

came from the sea. 

And it is an interesting 

biological fact that all 

of us have in our veins 

the exact same percentage 

of salt in our blood that 

exists in the ocean, 

and therefore, 

we have salt in our blood, 

in our sweat, 

in our tears. 

We are tied to the ocean. 

And when we go back to the sea

- whether it is to sail or to watch it- 

we are going back 

from whence we came. 

John F Kennedy
