Famous quotes containing the word sea:

    Verily, a polluted stream is man. One must actually be a sea to take in a polluted stream without becoming impure. Behold, I teach you the superman: he is the this sea, in him can your great contempt go under.
    Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)

    the whole sea become an entanglement of watery bodies
    lost to the world bearing what they cannot hold. Broken,

    beaten, desolate, reaching from the dead to be taken up
    they cry out, failing, failing! their cries rising
    in waves still as the skillful yachts pass over.
    William Carlos Williams (1883–1963)

    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)
