% of readers think this story is Fact. Add your two cents.
“The long day wanes; the slow moon climbs; the deep
Moans round with many voices. Come, my friends,
’Tis not too late to seek a newer world.
Push off, and sitting well in order smite
The sounding furrows; for my purpose holds
To sail beyond the sunset, and the baths
Of all the western stars…”
~ from “Ulysses,” by Alfred, Lord Tennyson
