Rules For Sailors

1. The violins in your ears are deceiving. Don't let them lead you astray.

2. If the stars twinkle, smile back at them. They need it.

3. When there are eyes in the water, don't blink. You may lose someone.

4. To breathe through choking darkness, light a candle.

5. If your reflection looks different, don't drink from the mirror.

6. There is never another ship in the mist.

7. Don't approach the figure.

8. If the deck creaks, stay very still. You do not know what you've awakened.

9. When you see the moon, turn back. There is danger ahead.

10. Once you set foot in the ocean, you will never leave.
