It is a great doctor for sore hearts and sore heads, too, your ship's routine, which I have seen soothe-at least for a time-the most turbulent of spirits. There is health in it, and peace, and satisfaction of the accomplished round; for each day of the ship's life seems to close a circle within the wide ring of the sea horizon. It borrows a certain dignity of sameness from the majestic monotony of the sea. He who loves the sea loves also the ship's routine.
( Joseph Conrad )
