The explorers of the past were great men and we should honour them. But let us not forget that their spirit lives on. It is still not hard to find a man who will adventure for the sake of a dream or one who will search, for the pleasure of searching, not for what he may find.

I am a lucky man. I have had a dream and it has come true, and that is not a thing that happens often to men.

I was a dreamer when I was at high school and even primary school. I used to dream about doing adventurous things.

I'm past carrying out some of the wishes that I would have wanted to do before, but I still dream about what I would like to do if I was able to do so.
