Sea Quotes

I like these people swarming on the sidewalks, wedged into a little space of houses and canals, hemmed in by fogs, cold lands, and the sea streaming like a wet wash. I like them, for they are double. They are here and elsewhere Picture Quote #1

This is the extent of his knowledge of the sea: it was very big, it was salty, and fish lived there Picture Quote #1

My first vision of earth was water veiled. I am of the race of men and women who see all things through this curtain of sea, and my eyes are the color of water Picture Quote #1

Then I reflect that all things happen, happen to one, precisely now. Century follows century, and things happen only in the present. There are countless men in the air, on land and at sea, and all that really happens happens to me Picture Quote #1

I will not have a sea creature destroyed, if I can help it. And I can help it Picture Quote #1

Oh, that river of wishes, the slippery crocodile dream of it, how it might have carried my body down through all the glittering sand bars to the sea Picture Quote #1

I am all in a sea of wonders. I doubt; I fear; I think strange things, which I dare not confess to my own soul. God keep me, if only for the sake of those dear to me! Picture Quote #1

Is not the beautiful moon, that inspires poets, the same moon which angers the silence of the sea with a terrible roar? Picture Quote #1

When this is over... we will got to the rainforest, or a beach as white as bone. We will eat grapes from the vine, we will swim with sea turtles, we will walk miles on cobblestone streets. We will laugh and talk and confess. We will Picture Quote #1

There was no sun; there was no light. I was dying. I couldn’t remember what the sky looked like. But I didn’t die. I was lost to a sea of cold, and then I was reborn into a world of warmth Picture Quote #1

It is good that we do not have to try to kill the sun or the moon or the stars. It is enough to live on the sea and kill our true brothers Picture Quote #1

The sun is a thief: she lures the sea and robs it. The moon is a thief: he steals his silvery light from the sun. The sea is a thief: it dissolves the moon Picture Quote #1

And when the day arrives I’ll become the sky and I’ll become the sea and the sea will come to kiss me for I am going home. Nothing can stop me now Picture Quote #1

Books are the carriers of civilization. Without books, history is silent, literature dumb, science crippled, thought and speculation at a standstill. Without books, the development of civilization would have been impossible. They are engines of change (as the poet said), windows on the world and lighthouses erected in the sea of time. They are companions, teachers, magicians, bankers of the treasures of the mind. Books are humanity in print Picture Quote #1

We need the books that affect us like a disaster, that grieve us deeply, like the death of someone we loved more than ourselves, like being banished into forests far from everyone, like a suicide. A book must be the axe for the frozen sea inside us Picture Quote #1

I thought of the wilderness we had left behind us, open to sea and sky, joyous in its plenitude and simplicity, perfect yet vulnerable, unaware of what is coming, defended by nothing, guarded by no one Picture Quote #1

And perhaps beyond those shrouded swells another man did walk with another child on the dead gray sands. Slept but a sea apart on another beach among the bitter ashes of the world or stood in their rags lost to the same indifferent sun Picture Quote #1

You asked me who I thought I was before. I said maybe I was a fish because I love water and you said, you thought a mermaid, maybe. If you were a mermaid, you said, if you were a mermaid, I was the sea Picture Quote #1

... for there is nothing mysterious to a seaman unless it be the sea itself, which is the mistress of his existence Picture Quote #1

He felt a momentary pang of regret that he had not spent more time with his beloved wife. But it passed when he remembered that the reason he’d gone to sea in the first place was that he had never really liked his beloved wife Picture Quote #1

At noon I observed a bevy of nude young native women bathing in the sea, and I went and sat down on there clothes to keep them from being stolen Picture Quote #1

Fear no more, says the heart, committing its burden to some sea, which sighs collectively for all sorrows, and renews, begins, collects, lets fall Picture Quote #1

And then he could not see her come into a room without a sense of the flowing of robes, of the flowering of blossoms, of the purple waves of the sea, of all things that are lovely and mutable on the surface but still and passionate in their heart Picture Quote #1

And when she dreams, she dreams of a girl who was lost at sea but one day found the shore Picture Quote #1

While the flowers, pale and unreal in the moonlight, floated away upon the river; and thus do greater things that once were in our breasts, and near our hearts, flow from us to the eternal sea Picture Quote #1

The feelings we live through in love and in loneliness are simply, for us, what high tide and low tide are to the sea Picture Quote #1

Seaward ho! Hang the treasure! It’s the glory of the sea that has turned my head Picture Quote #1

I grew, a happy, healthy child in a bright world of illustrated books, clean sand, orange trees, friendly dogs, sea vistas and smiling faces Picture Quote #1

It was morning, and the new sun sparkled gold across the ripples of a gentle sea Picture Quote #1

He offered to stop the tide for me once. He offered to build me a palace at the bottom of the sea Picture Quote #1
