‘In Bali life is a rhythmic, patterned unreality of pleasant, significant movement, centered in one’s own body to which all emotions long ago withdrew.’ – Margaret Mead

“The loveliest fleet of islands that lies anchored in any ocean.” --Mark Twain

⛵"We cannot command the winds or still the waves, but we can adjust our sails and chart our course with wisdom and courage."
