Coastal Ocean Observing

Famous quotes containing the words ocean and/or observing:

    Our fathers water’d with their tears
    This sea of time whereon we sail,
    Their voices were in all men’s ears
    Who pass’d within their puissant hail.
    Still the same ocean round us raves,
    But we stand mute, and watch the waves.
    Matthew Arnold (1822–1888)

    We were observing once to Mr. [Samuel] Crisp that the good and the agreeable were seldom united—”Ay begad,” cried he, “’tis rare enough to meet with the one or the other.”
    Frances Burney (1752–1840)
