In the opening lines of Moby-Dick, Melville describes the wharves of Manhattan, where "posted like silent sentinels all around the town, stand thousands upon thousands of mortal men fixed in ocean reveries." Why do people take vacations just to stare at the empty sea? What do they see when they see the sea? In this week's episode of Otis Brown Podcast, I share some thoughts on the subject based on my experience as a long-time sea gazer and sailor.
Thank you!
And enjoy!
