![[The sea] is the healer and the reviver, it cleanses the cavities of self-disgust and melancholy, of sloth and negation with the salt solution of life.

Give it trust and it holds you secure; fight it and it kills.](/assets/img/quote-photos/the-sea-is-the-healer-and-the-reviver-it-cleanses-the-cavities-of-self-disgust.jpg)
