Many corpses will be floating in the sea.

The man who has experienced shipwreck shudders even at a calm sea.

Man cannot discover new oceans unless he has the courage to lose sight of the shore.

On my second swim at Deception Island, the water was very clear and I was looking at hundreds of whale bones beneath me. It was a graveyard from the whaling some time in the 1920s-30s.

We know about man's impact on the ocean in terms of fishing and overfishing, but we don't really know much about what's happening underneath the water. And in fact, shipping has a role to play here, because shipping noise has contributed to damaging the acoustic habitats of ocean creatures.

The deep sea is a scary world.

I must confess that my imagination refuses to see any sort of submarine doing anything but suffocating its crew and floundering at sea.

The sea complains upon a thousand shores.

The minute you start feeling like you've got it down, you know what you're doing, you're dead in the water.
