"God bless this tiny little boat, And me……" — Michael Leunig

"God bless this tiny little boat, And me who travels in it. It stays afloat for years and years, And sinks within a minute. And so the soul in which we sail, Unknown by years of thinking, Is deeply felt and understood, The minute that it’s sinking."

— Michael Leunig
