Ocean Floor

Famous quotes containing the words ocean and/or floor:

“On an old shore, the vulgar ocean rolls
Noiselessly, noiselessly, resembling a thin bird,
That thinks of settling, yet never settles, on a nest.”

Poured over the floor in some eagerness we
Rise with the night let out of the box of wind.”
