Famous quotes containing the words ocean and/or view:
“We only seem to learn from Life that Life doesn’t matter so much as it seemed to do—it’s not so burningly important, after all, what happens. We crawl, like blinking sea-creatures, out of the Ocean onto a spur of rock, we creep over the promontory bewildered and dazzled and hurting ourselves, then we drop in the ocean on the other side: and the little transit doesn’t matter so much.”
—D.H. (David Herbert)
“On Hellespont guiltie of True-loves blood,
In view and opposit two citties stood,
Seaborders, disjoin’d by Neptunes might:
The one Abydos, the other Sestos hight.”
—Christopher Marlowe (1564–1593)
