And soon, too soon, we part with pain, To sail o'er silent seas again.

Thomas Moore ). Dozens of nations have agreed to join in monitoring and, if necessary, intercepting and boarding ships on the high seas in the event they are suspected of engaging in one or both of these threatening activities. Frank Gaffney Even in our day, science suspects beyond the Polar seas, at the very circle of the Arctic Pole, the existence of a sea which never freezes and a continent which is ever green. H. P. Blavatsky For if the Germans do not help defend the West, American and Canadian troops must cross the seas to do the job, and I venture to believe that the troops - if not the statesmen - regard this as an interference at least in their own domestic affairs. Arthur H. Sulzberger He gave us the lakes for our Northern boundary, and the rivers stretching to the seas upon whose waters floats our commerce to the nations of the world; while man has done all that can be done by science to bind us together. John Brough I do like the ocean wave, actually. I'm born under the sign of Cancer - the sign of the crab - so I like coastal areas and sunny beaches and such - although not the wide-open and deep seas. Anjelica Huston I have vertigo. Vertigo makes it feel like the floor is pitching up and down. Things seem to be spinning. It's like standing on the deck of a ship in really high seas. Laura Hillenbrand I mention this fact as tending to support what I have often heard stated, namely, that a shark's sense of smell is so keen that, if men ever bathe in seas where they are found, a shark is almost sure to appear directly afterwards. George Grey I venture to allude to the impression which seemed generally to prevail among their brethren across the seas, that the Old Country must wake up if she intends to maintain her old position of pre-eminence in her colonial trade against foreign competitors. King George V Ill habits gather unseen degrees, as brooks make rivers, rivers run to seas. John Dryden In this cry of pain the inner consciousness of the people seems to lay itself bare for an instant, and to reveal the mood of beings who feel their isolation in the face of a universe that wars on them with winds and seas. John Millington Synge It becomes a giant's task to compute the result when the effect of cross seas, wind at all angles and ever varying force, arched surfaces, head resistance, ratio of weight to area, and the intelligence of the guiding power crop up. Lawrence Hargrave It is a far, far better thing to have a firm anchor in nonsense than to put out on the troubled seas of thought. John Kenneth Galbraith It is quite possible we may have formed entirely erroneous ideas of what we actually see. The greenish gray patches may not be seas at all, nor the ruddy continents, solid land. Neither may the obscuring patches be clouds of vapor. Edward E. Barnard It so happened that I was on a German sailing vessel on the way to Australia when the ship was captured, and on the high seas I was made prisoner by the French. Fritz Sauckel Judgment is more than skill. It sets forth on intellectual seas beyond the shores of hard indisputable factual information. Kingman Brewster, Jr. Pouring forth its seas everywhere, then, the ocean envelops the earth and fills its deeper chasms. Nicolaus Copernicus Sleep after toil, port after stormy seas, Ease after war, death after life does greatly please. Edmund Spenser Sometimes we look for those thunderous things to happen in our life for our lives to change or go in the other direction. We seek the miracle. We seek the parting of the seas, the moving of the mountains. But no, it's a quiet thing. At least for me it was. Ben Vereen Sweet it is, when on the high seas the winds are lashing the waters, to gaze from the land on another's struggles. Lucretius |
