And with the same dogged determination that my father had bred into me since I was such a child -- he taught me how to sail, knowing I could never see where I was going, I could never see the shore, and I couldn't see the sails, and I couldn't see the destination.
E com a mesma determinação obstinada que o meu pai me incutiu desde pequena - ele ensinou-me a velejar, sabendo que eu nunca conseguia ver para onde estava a ir, eu nunca conseguiria ver a costa, e eu nunca conseguiria ver as velas e nunca conseguiria ver o meu destino.
