    He always thought of the sea as la mar which is what people call her in spanish when they love her. Sometimes those who love her say bad things of her but they are always said as though she were a woman. Some of the younger fisherman, those who used buoys as floats for their lines and had motorboats, bought when the shark livers had brought much money, spoke of her as el mar which is masculaine. They spoke of her as a contestant or a place or even an enemy. But the old man always thought of her as femenine and as something that gave or witheld great favours, and if she did wild or wicked things it was because she could not help them. The moon affects her as it does a woman.

  10. You should not grieve over bad shots; learn how not to rejoice over the good ones. You must free yourself from the buffetings of pleasure and pain, and learn to rise above them in easy equanimity… This too, you must practice unceasingly – you cannot conceive how important it is. ~Eugene Herrigel~
