Excerpt from Le Programme Maritime de 1900-1906 Nombre de gens en France, se montrent syst???matique ment hostiles ??? toute augmentation de notre puissance maritime. Parmi ceux-l???, les uns ignorent la mer ou n'en con naissent que les aspects pittoresques. N'ayant jamais parcouru les grandes routes qui la sillonnent, ils ne voient dans les oc???ans que de gigantesques ab???mes creus???s par quelque malicieuse force surnaturelle pour isoler les conti neuts les uns des autres et s???parer ???ternellement les races qui les peuplent.
