Колумб вошел в историю как величайший в мире исследователь, может быть, самый знаменитый человек в истории, потому что он нашел нечто совершенно неожиданное — Америку, и она оказалась полной золота. Мораль этой истории в том, что важно быть умным, но еще важнее, когда вам везет. Ведь в конечном счете Колумб преуспел, потому что ему повезло. Он преуспел потому, что решился направить корабль в необычную сторону, вопреки сильному сопротивлению окружающих. Без этой огромной решимости он не попал бы в такое положение, когда ему столь неслыханно повезло.
Начнем же наше плавание с таким же упорством и стремлением достигнуть неизвестного!
