"Wide sea,
that one continuous murmur
breeds along the pebbled shore
of memory!"
John Keats
"Those who live by the sea
can hardly form a single thought of which the sea
would not be part."
Hermann Broch
"To me, the sea is like a person
like a child that I've known a long time.
I never feel alone when I'm out there."
--Gertrude Ederle
