Thus it cannot be denied that the masses which today form our highest mountains were originally in a liquid state; for a long time they were covered by waters which did not sustain any life.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
A mountain is composed of tiny grains of earth. The ocean is made up of tiny drops of water. Even so, life is but an endless series of little details, actions, speeches, and thoughts. And the consequences whether good or bad of even the least of them are far-reaching.
The sediments of the past are many miles in collective thickness: yet the feeble silt of the rivers built them all from base to summit.
Ocean is more ancient than the mountains, and freighted with the memories and the dreams of Time.
Mountains aren't eternal: even the most imposing massifs are smoothed away by weathering in a few hundred million years or less. Plate tectonics makes new ones, and without it, our future would be flat.
But the revolutions and changes which are responsible for the present state of the earth are not limited to the upsetting of the ancient strata and to the ebbing of the sea after the formations of new layers.
In the presence of eternity, the mountains are as transient as the clouds.
There is so much life underneath the water that we don't know about.
I think it's an individual thing. Your mountains are my molehills.
Water is life's matter and matrix, mother and medium. There is no life without water.
Well, all life forms are dependent upon water.
