Found this one over at the Maritime Matters site:

Nice blurb about the Inuits chartering the Orlova as a cruise-slash- arctic expedition vessel.
The world will never love us. They respect us - they might even grow to fear us.
But they will never love us, for we have too much audacity!

- Theodore Roosevelt – “The Wind & the Lion” (1975)
