Open Ocean

Famous quotes containing the words open and/or ocean:

    Go forth under the open sky, and list
    To Nature’s teachings,
    William Cullen Bryant (1794–1878)

    The ocean is a wilderness reaching round the globe, wilder than a Bengal jungle, and fuller of monsters, washing the very wharves of our cities and the gardens of our sea-side residences. Serpents, bears, hyenas, tigers rapidly vanish as civilization advances, but the most populous and civilized city cannot scare a shark far from its wharves.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
