Sea Level Pressure

Famous quotes containing the words sea, level and/or pressure:

    When heaven doth weep, doth not the earth o’erflow?
    If the winds rage, doth not the sea wax mad,
    Threatening the welkin with his big-swollen face?
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    Jealousy is indeed a poor medium to secure love, but it is a secure medium to destroy one’s self-respect. For jealous people, like dope-fiends, stoop to the lowest level and in the end inspire only disgust and loathing.
    Emma Goldman (1869–1940)

    This is a catastrophic universe, always; and subject to sudden reversals, upheavals, changes, cataclysms, with joy never anything but the song of substance under pressure forced into new forms and shapes.
    Doris Lessing (b. 1919)
