“Round the world and home again, that's the sailor's way!”
“The longest way round is the shortest way home.”
“Think you're escaping and run into yourself. Longest way round is the shortest way home.”
“There are good sailors. Well, some good sailors. In a way they are ideal as husbands. They drop in every six months for a wild celebration, then they drop out again before one gets bored with their company or annoyed with by their habits.”
“The longest way round is the shortest way home.(Quoting Alexander MacLaren, The Wearied Christ and Other Sermons)”
