On a Bahamas Sail, 8 Friends Get a Taste of Robinson Crusoe

Reading the article, I thought of this contrasting quote:

“I could not forbear getting up to the top of a little mountain, and looking out to sea, in hopes of seeing a ship : then fancy that, at a vast distance, I spied a sail, please myself with the hopes of it, and, after looking steadily, till I was almost blind, lose it quite, and sit down and weep like a child, and thus increase my misery by my folly.”

― Daniel Defoe, Robinson Crusoe
