Sea Pens

Famous quotes containing the words sea and/or pens:

    “The sea has never been friendly to man. At most it has been the accomplice of human restlessness.”
    —Joseph Conrad (1857–1924)

    “There is no one kind of thing that we ‘perceive’ but many different kinds, the number being reducible if at all by scientific investigation and not by philosophy: pens are in many ways though not in all ways unlike rainbows, which are in many ways though not in all ways unlike after-images, which in turn are in many ways but not in all ways unlike pictures on the cinema-screen—and so on.”
    —J.L. (John Langshaw)
