Sea Quotes

Metaphors are our way of losing ourselves in semblances or treading water in a sea of seeming Picture Quote #1

I felt a momentary urge to leap into the sea and swim free of the present Picture Quote #1

Sometimes friends do foolish things. My father told me that true friends are like gold coins. Ships are wrecked by storms and lie for hundreds of years on the ocean floor. Worms destroy the wood. Iron corrodes. Silver turns black but gold doesn’t change in sea water. It loses none of its brilliance or colour. It comes up the same. It survives shipwrecks and time Picture Quote #1

I love borders. August is the border between summer and autumn; it is the most beautiful month I know. Twilight is the border between day and night, and the shore is the border between sea and land. The border is longing: when both have fallen in love but still haven’t said anything. The border is to be on the way. It is the way that is the most important thing Picture Quote #1

To stand at the edge of the sea, to sense the ebb and flow of the tides, to feel the breath of a mist moving over a great salt marsh, to watch the flight of shore birds that have swept up and down the surf lines of the continents for untold thousands of years, to see the running of the old eels and the young shad to the sea, is to have knowledge of things that are as nearly eternal as any earthly life can be Picture Quote #1

I preferred to look at the sea, which said nothing and never made you feel alone Picture Quote #1

There’s a flame of magic inside every stone and every flower, every bird that sings and every frog that croaks. There’s magic in the trees and the hills and the river and the rocks, in the sea and the stars and the wind, a deep, wild magic that’s as old as the world itself. It’s in you too, my darling girl, and in me, and in every living creature, be it ever so small. Even the dirt I’m sweeping up now is stardust. In fact, all of us are made from the stuff of stars Picture Quote #1

And a human being whose life is nurtured in an advantage which has accrued from the disadvantage of other human beings, and who prefers that this should remain as it is, is a human being by definition only, having much more in common with the bedbug, the tapeworm, the cancer, and the scavengers of the deep sea Picture Quote #1

He who lets the sea lull him into a sense of security is in very grave danger Picture Quote #1

Mankind owns four things that are no good at sea: rudder, anchor, oars and the fear of going down Picture Quote #1

All the ways of this world are as fickle and unstable as a sudden storm at sea Picture Quote #1

When I’m old and gray, I want to have a house by the sea. And paint. With a lot of wonderful chums, good music, and booze around. And a damn good kitchen to cook in Picture Quote #1

Aviation will give new nourishment to the religious sprit of mankind. It will add airspace to those other great heighteners of the cosmic mood: the wood, the sea, the desert Picture Quote #1

Don’t tax you, don’t tax me;Tax the companies across the sea Picture Quote #1

It isn’t that life ashore is distasteful to me. But life at sea is better Picture Quote #1

I am like a moon that shines on an immense, unknown sea where ships never pass Picture Quote #1

I know that to paint the sea really well, you need to look at it every hour of every day in the same place so that you can understand its way in that particular spot; and that is why I am working on the same motifs over and over again, four or six times even Picture Quote #1

Nothing that happens on the surface of the sea can alter the calm of its depths Picture Quote #1

Just as the winds whip up the sea, so does anger stir confusion in the mind Picture Quote #1

I am the highway and a peregrine and all the sails that ever went to sea Picture Quote #1

Communication is the essential medium of a creative culture: the communal sea in which we all swim. A company that can’t communicate is like a jazz band without instruments: Music just isn’t going to happen Picture Quote #1

At the age of 18, I made up my mind to never have another bad day in my life. I dove into a endless sea of gratitude from which I’ve never emerged Picture Quote #1

I am the infinite sea, and all worlds are but grains of sand upon my shore Picture Quote #1

Even in the middle of a hurricane, the bottom of the sea is calm. As the storm rages and the winds howl, the deep waters sway in gentle rhythm, a light movement of fish and plant life. Below there is no storm Picture Quote #1

I love the sea but it does not love me. The sea is like a desert in that it is quite rightly feared. The sea and the desert are both hungry, they have things to be getting on with so you do not go into them lightly Picture Quote #1

From my mother came the idea that going down to the sea repaired the spirit. That is where she walked when she was sad or worried or lonely for my father. If she had been crying, she came back composed; if she had left angry with us, she returned in good humor. So we naturally believed that there was a cleansing, purifying effect to be had; that letting the fresh wind blow through you mind and spirits as well as your hair and clothing purged black thoughts; that contemplating the ceaseless motion of the waves calmed a raging spirit Picture Quote #1

Today my son and I went for a stroll and saw the sea lions and watched the sunset and played ball in the park with our dog Picture Quote #1

The moon is high. The sea is deep. They rock and rock and rock to sleep Picture Quote #1

Now everything was changed. She walked about with cautious, anxious steps, staring constantly at the ground, on the lookout for things that crept and crawled. Bushes were dangerous, and so were sea grass and rain water. There were little animals everywhere. They could turn up between the covers of a book, flattened and dead, for the fact is that creeping animals, tattered animals, and dead animals are with us all our lives, from beginning to end. Grandmother tried to discuss this with her, to no avail. Irrational terror is so hard to deal with Picture Quote #1

The beauty of the trees, the softness of the air, the fragrance of the grass, they speak to me. The summit of the mountain, the thunder of the sky, the rhythm of the sea, speaks to me. The faintness of the stars, the freshness of the morning, the dewdrop on the flower, speaks to me. The strength of the fire, the taste of the salmon, the trail of the sun, and the life that never goes away, they speak to me. And my heart soars Picture Quote #1
