Additional quotes by Stan Rogers

Ah, for just one time I would take the Northwest Passage
To find the hand of Franklin reaching for the Beaufort Sea
Tracing one warm line through a land so wide and savage
And make a northwest passage to the sea.

Seeking gold and glory, leaving weathered, broken bones
And a long-forgotten lonely cairn of stones.

And you to whom adversity has dealt the final blow
With smiling bastards lying to you everywhere you go

To seek a Northwest Passage at the call of many men To find there but the road back home again. - Stan Rogers
