Famous quotes containing the words sea and/or region:
“So all were lost, which in the ship were found,
They in the sea being burnt, they in the burnt ship drown’d.”

“When the excessively shy force themselves to be forward, they are frequently surprisingly unsubtle and overdirect and even rude: they have entered an extreme region beyond their normal personality, an area of social crime where gradations don’t count; unavailable to them are the instincts and taboos that booming extroverts, who know the territory of self-advancement far better, can rely on.”
—Nicholson Baker (b. 1957)
