Text Quotes
Cantonese will eat anything in the sky but airplanes, anything in the sea but submarines, and anything with four legs but the table  (The Sea Quotes) To stay in one place and watch the seasons come and go is tanatmount to constant travel: One is traveling with the earth  (The Sea Quotes) The world has been created for everyone’s use, but you few rich are trying to keep it up for yourselves. For not merely the possession of the earth, but the very sky, the air, and the sea are claimed for the use of the rich few... The earth belongs to all, not just to the rich  (The Sea Quotes) 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  (The Sea Quotes) Wisdom can see the red, the rose, the stained and sculptured curve of grey, the charcoal scars of fire, and see around that living tower of tree the hermit tatters of old bark split down and strip to end the season; and can be quiet and not look for reasons past the edge of reason  (The Sea Quotes) Even the seasons form a great circle in their changing, and always come back again to where they were. The life of a person is a circle from childhood to childhood, and so it is in everything where power moves  (The Sea Quotes) Tribe follows tribe, nations follow nations like the tides of the sea. It is the order of nature, and regret is useless  (The Sea Quotes) The crux of the sea level issue is that it starts very slowly but once it gets going it is practically unstoppable... There is no way I can see to stop this rise, even if we have gone to zero emissions  (The Sea Quotes) It’s been a tough season for all of us, but all we can do is keep fighting and showing character to the end of the season  (The Sea Quotes) Lecturers should remember that the capacity of the mind to absorb is limited to what the seat can endure  (The Sea Quotes) Even if you never have the chance to see or touch the ocean, the ocean touches you with every breath you take, every drop of water you drink, every bite you consume. Everyone, everywhere is inextricably connected to and utterly dependent upon the existence of the sea  (The Sea Quotes) Wildness we might consider as the root of the authentic spontaneities of any being. It is that wellspring of creativity whence comes the instinctive activities that enable all living beings to obtain their food, to find shelter, to bring forth their young: to sing and dance and fly through the air and swim through the depths of the sea. This is the same inner tendency that evokes the insight of the poet, the skill of the artist and the power of the shaman  (The Sea Quotes) The last of the lonely places is the sky, a trackless void where nothing lives or grows, and above it, space itself. Man may have been destined to walk upon ice or sand, or climb the mountains or take craft upon the sea. But surely he was never meant to fly? But he does, and finding out how to do it was his last great adventure  (The Sea Quotes) The air is the most mysterious, the most exciting, the most challenging of all the elements. We leave the planet, we leave the sea, we leave the earth. The air is no longer of this world  (The Sea Quotes) 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  (The Sea Quotes) Why should a lobster be any more ridiculous than a dog?... or a cat, or a gazelle, or a lion, or any other animal one chooses to take for a walk? I have a liking for lobsters. They are peaceful, serious creatures... Goethe had an aversion to dogs, and he wasn’t mad. They know the secrets of the sea, they don’t bark  (The Sea Quotes) This gardener will be out in the very early morning and from late afternoon, attentive to small changes in the quality of light and the atmosphere, as well as to every nuance of the season, which combine to create perfection  (The Sea Quotes) I never did like the idea of sitting on newspapers. I did it once, and all the headlines came off on my white pants. On the level! It actually happened. Nobody bought a paper that day. They just followed me around over town and read the news on the seat of my pants  (The Sea Quotes) Inside the first 20 to 25 games of the season, we were losing these games, getting beat by two and three points. Over the last 10 games, it seems like we’re starting to win these games and putting some good things together  (The Sea Quotes) When you get in the water with a wild animal, you’re essentially giving yourself to that animal because, as humans, we’re quite helpless and vulnerable in the water. You’re at the seal’s mercy. You’re at the predator’s mercy  (The Sea Quotes) The first object which saluted my eyes when I arrived on the coast was the sea, and a slave ship, which was then riding at anchor, and waiting for its cargo. These filled me with astonishment, which was soon connected with terror, when I was carried on board. I was immediately handled, and tossed up to see if I were sound, by some of the crew; and I was now persuaded that I had gotten into a world of bad spirits, and that they were going to kill me  (The Sea Quotes) I’ll be satisfied with what I’ve got at the end of the season,... If I can play every day, the numbers will come  (The Sea Quotes) I take the seashell from my jeans pocket and rub my fingers across its silken, indented surface, shallow as my own open hand. This chalice, subtly shaped by some divine intelligence to allow water to flow in and out with ease, is what I aspire to become: a vessel through which feelings can pour in and spill right out again, without all the grasping and holding that obstructs the flow. Can I be as serene and simple as this bleached shell, rubbed smooth by wind and water, receiving and releasing, filling and emptying and filling again, eternally receptive to the currents of life?  (The Sea Quotes) Of course, this is the season to be jolly, but it is also a good time to be thinking about those who aren’t  (The Sea Quotes) Almost all of your life is lived by the seat of your pants, one unexpected event crashing into another, with no pattern or reason, and then you finally reach a point, around my age, where you spend more time than ever looking back. Why did this happen? Look where that led? You see the shape of things  (The Sea Quotes) Of all the sacred places on the coast, none is more comforting than where rivers join the sea. By the river’s disappearance we are reminded of life’s passing, while by the ocean’s beauty we accept it, in a hope we cannot explain  (The Sea Quotes) The human animal began as a mere wriggling thing in the ancient seas, struggling out onto land with many regrets. That is what brings us so full of longing to the sea  (The Sea Quotes) And men go about to wonder at the heights of the mountains, and the mighty waves of the sea, and the wide sweep of rivers, and the circuit of the ocean, and the revolution of the stars, but themselves they consider not  (The Sea Quotes) Well, this is good for me, this is experience, I am here for a reason, these moments run into pages, the seamy side of life  (The Sea Quotes) How could anyone not want to live when there were so many things to live for? There were rainy nights and wind and the slap of the sea and the moon. There were books to read and pictures to paint and music  (The Sea Quotes)
