Famous quotes containing the words sea and/or serpents:

    “The sea is very old.
    The sea is the face of Mary,
    without miracles or rage
    or unusual hope,
    grown rough and wrinkled
    with incurable age.”
    —Anne Sexton (1928–1974)

    “Dry as a tomb, your coloured lids
    Shall not be latched while magic glides
    Sage on the earth and sky;
    There shall be corals in your beds,
    There shall be serpents in your tides,
    Till all our sea-faiths die.”
    —Dylan Thomas (1914–1953)
