Additional quotes by Abby Sunderland

The things that happen on the sea take you beyond yourself, beyond human capability.

I am twelve thousand miles wiser, twelve thousand miles more resilient, and I have twelve thousand miles more faith in God.

I knew that even if I was able to call for help, I was in a place so remote that it wasn’t likely there would be anyone who could help me. And even if there were, it could take weeks.

I wanted to break the record, of course, and become the youngest person to sail around the world solo and unassisted. - Abby Sunderland
