Sea Level Rise

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

    The sea curling,
    Star-climbed, wind-combed, cumbered with itself still

    Of the Creator. And he waits for the world to begin.
    William Stanley Merwin (b. 1927)

    All’s oblique;
    There’s nothing level in our cursed natures
    But direct villainy. Therefore be abhorred
    All feasts, societies, and throngs of men!
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    Oppression that is clearly inexorable and invincible does not give rise to revolt but to submission.
    Simone Weil (1909–1943)
