There are people, who's achievements and turbulent lives as well as talents and personality could fill many biographies. Mariusz Zaruski  was undoubtedly one of them. 

He was a very unusual, talented and versatile man - he was a poet and a writer, a painter, great mountaineer and a skier, great officers of the Polish Legion, a sailor and a traveler, great organizer and marvelous educator of young people.
He had two great passions: mountains and the sea.

Even brief biography of Mariusz Zaruski surprises us that despite so many difficulties he succeeded to share so much of his wonderful personality with other people and that one man during his lifetime could participate in so many important events.

 


"When I finally arrive and saint Peter asks how to  report me, I will say:
I broke hasps of slavery with a hammer, I took Poles up the mountains and to the sea to make them hard as granite and to make their souls as clean and deep as the sea."

There is no better way to describe his life.
