Quotes

  • 'The sea, once it casts its spell, holds one in its net of wonder forever.' - Jacques Yves Cousteau
  • 'The ocean is a central image. It is the symbolism of a great journey.' - Enya
  • 'I really don't know why it is that all of us are so committed to the sea, except I think it's because in addition to the fact that the sea changes, and the light changes, and ships change, it's because we all came from the sea. And it is an interesting biological fact that all of us have in our veins the exact same percentage of salt in our blood that exists in the ocean, and, therefore, we have salt in our blood, in our sweat, in our tears. We are tied to the ocean. And when we go back to the sea - whether it is to sail or to watch it - we are going back from whence we came.' - John F. Kennedy
