You can't change a man's nature by changing his surroundings.
I'm not afraid to fight for what I want.
Better to be a sailor than a passenger.
In the end, we are all just trying to find our own way.
The sea is the only place I feel free.
I'd rather be alone than be with someone who makes me feel lonely.
There's power in knowledge, true power.
You have to be brave to follow your heart.
Sometimes love is the only thing worth fighting for.
We don't get to choose where we come from, but we can choose where we go from there.
Don't be afraid to speak your mind. Your voice matters.
The heart has a way of leading us to where we truly belong.
