For Bronislaw Malinowski - an island man throughout
Coastal sailing as long as it is perfectly safe and easy commands no magic. Overseas expeditions are
invariably bound up with ceremonies and ritual. Man [humans] resorts to magic only where chance
and circumstances are not fully controlled by knowledge.
Bronislaw Malinowski (1931)
