If I were a man with gills, I would be a fish!

All men are equal before fish.

For all that has been said of the love that certain natures (on shore) have professed for it, for all the celebrations it has been the object of in prose and song, the sea has never been friendly to man. At most it has been the accomplice of human restlessness.

I love the sea.

The one thing that a fish can never find is water; and the one thing that man can never find is God.

Fishes live in the sea, as men do a-land; the great ones eat up the little ones.

Fishes live in the sea, as men do on land: the great ones eat up the little ones.

The sea is my business.

Ocean: A body of water occupying about two-thirds of a world made for man - who has no gills.
