The Ocean is Part of Us

"...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 - we are going back from whence we came." - President John F. Kennedy, Speech at the America’s Cup races, Newport, Rhode Island, September 14, 1962
