He smiled to himself at the thought that someone would dance on the beach.

"I guess I should have asked ,why are you throwing starfishes into the ocean?" "The sun is up and the tide is going out.And if I don't throw them in, they will die." "But ,young man ,don't you realize that there are miles of beach and starfishes all along it. You can't possibly make a difference!"
