Famous quotes containing the words deep, sea and/or fish:

    It is not a carol of joy or glee,
    But a prayer that he sends from his heart’s deep core,
    But a plea, that upward to Heaven he flings—
    I know why the caged bird sings!
    Paul Laurence Dunbar (1872–1906)

    All night your moth-breath
    Flickers among the flat pink roses. I wake to listen:
    A far sea moves in my ear.
    Sylvia Plath (1932–1963)

    Big fish eat small fish, and small fish eat shrimp eggs.
    Chinese proverb.
