North Sea Basin

Famous quotes containing the words north and/or sea:

    “The North will at least preserve your flesh for you; Northerners are pale for good and all. There’s very little difference between a dead Swede and a young man who’s had a bad night. But the Colonial is full of maggots the day after he gets off the boat.”
    —Louis-Ferdinand Céline (1894–1961)

    “I have need of night people.
    I have need to see the bum dozing
    off on scag, the women in labor
    pushing forth a pink head,
    lord I need to fly I am sick of
    rocks and sea water....”
    —Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
