Courage In White Cursive

"The sea is dangerous and its storms terrible, but these obstacles have never been sufficient reason to remain ashore... unlike the mediocre, intrepid spirits seek victory over those things that seem impossible... it is with an iron will that they embark on the most daring of all endeavors... to meet the shadowy future without fear and conquer the unknown."

- Ferdinand Magellan, born 1480-02-03 in Sabrosa, Trás-os-Montes e Alto Douro, Kingdom of Portugal (on the land of present-day Portugal)
