List of voters for the quote

Thor Heyerdahl: [Talking with three National Geographic's members] Gentlemen. Your magazine will be with me on a raft. At the mercy of the winds, all the way to Polynesia. It is further than from Chicago to Moscow. Here to here. [pointing it in a map behind him]Committee Member: You'll have some sort of engine in case of emergency?Thor Heyerdahl: No. Absolutely not. We will surrender to the current and the wind... like Tiki did.Committee Member: [curious] And by undertaking this extraordinary voyage, you are proving?Thor Heyerdahl: That the oceans were not barriers, but roads. Not impediments, but pathways. I will prove that South American people sailed to Polynesia...Committee Member: [refused] Every schoolboy knows that Polynesia was peopled from Asia, not South America.Thor Heyerdahl: And it is my job as a scientist to prove those schoolboys, and those who quote them, wrong. [turning to the map] Ancient man, being sun worshipers...Committee Member: [interrupting Thor] Mr. Heyerdahl. Doubtless the story of Norwegians drowning in the pacific will sell a lot of magazines. But not this one.Thor Heyerdahl: [angry] This is a scientific expedition!Committee Member: Our magazine has a higher purpose than to finance and enable men bent on suicide. I doubt he'll have any success recruiting anyone for such a voyage.
