If I Cannot Be Myself In What I Write, Then The Whole Is Nothing But Lies And Humbug.

But I Almost Think We Are All Of Us Ghosts. It Is Not Only What We Have Inherited From Our Father And Mother That “walks” In Us. It Is All Sorts Of Dead Ideas, And Lifeless Old Beliefs, And So Forth. They Have No Vitality, But They Cling To Us All The Same, And We Cannot Shake Them Off. Whenever I Take Up A Newspaper, I Seem To See Ghosts Gliding Between The Lines.

To See One's Goal And To Drive Toward It, Steeling One's Heart, Is Most Uplifting.

The Sea Possesses A Power Over One's Moods That Has The Effect Of A Will. The Sea Can Hypnotize. Nature In General Can Do So.
