Shallow Sea

Famous quotes containing the words shallow and/or sea:

    This generation has come into the world fatally late for some enterprises. Go where we will on the surface of things, men have been there before us.... But the lives of men, though more extended laterally in their range, are still as shallow as ever.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    As the tide crept, the land
    burned with a lizard-blue
    where the dark sea met the sand.
    Hilda Doolittle (1886–1961)
