I love San Francisco for the music culture. There’s this vibe there that I can’t find anywhere else in the world. Easily one of the best places on the sea coast.
Just like navigating in the open sea, triangulating the information you collect from media with your doctor’s advice and some common sense will help map a sound path to safety.
I’m inspired by films from the early ’50s, especially Jean Simmons in ‘The Clouded Yellow’ – and by vintage swing, psychobilly gigs, sea shanties, and English folklore.
I must confess that my imagination refuses to see any sort of submarine doing anything but suffocating its crew and floundering at sea.
My mother-in-law said, ‘One day I will dance on your grave.’ I said ‘I hope you do; I will be buried at sea.’
For better or worse, zoos are how most people come to know big or exotic animals. Few will ever see wild penguins sledding downhill to sea on their bellies, giant pandas holding bamboo lollipops in China or tree porcupines in the Canadian Rockies, balled up like giant pine cones.
All rivers, even the most dazzling, those that catch the sun in their course, all rivers go down to the ocean and drown. And life awaits man as the sea awaits the river.
I sense that the sea of smart phones lit up at concerts is a temporary phenomenon. The integration of technology, sharing, and social into our physical world, on the other hand, well, that ain’t going away.
All loose things seem to drift down to the sea, and so did I.
There are more active volcanoes beneath the sea than on land by two orders of magnitude.
When I directed my first short – ‘American Virgin’ – I had no idea if I could actually do it. Like, I might just get onto set, have everyone look at me and just completely freeze and have no idea what to do. But pretty much the opposite of that happened. I was like a fish diving into the sea.
Sea spaghetti looks like dark fettuccine and has a similar texture – you can get it in health food stores or online.
In civilized life, law floats in a sea of ethics.
But let there be spaces in your togetherness and let the winds of the heavens dance between you. Love one another but make not a bond of love: let it rather be a moving sea between the shores of your souls.
Direct access to sea is an essential part of foreign policy.
The question of armaments, whether on land or sea, is the most immediately and intensely practical question connected with the future fortunes of nations and of mankind.
Almost the first thing you see after entering the Houdini exhibition at the Jewish Museum is a large-screen film of Harry Houdini hanging by his ankles upside-down from a tall building, high over a sea of men in fedoras, and thrashing his way out of a straitjacket.
Love one another, but make not a bond of love: Let it rather be a moving sea between the shores of your souls.
I’m not romantic; I’m very practical. There are lots of fish in the sea; so whoever gets struck with your rod, one is as good as another.
Nathaniel Philbrick’s ‘In the Heart of the Sea’ has rightfully taken its place as a classic for its literary merits. It has a special place in the cannibalism canon as well.
I grew up near the sea in British Columbia and San Francisco, and lived in Malibu and Fiji for years. I get uncomfortable being too far inland.
As with all great works of literature, ‘Of Mice and Men’ moves with the inexorability of a huge river, and it pours itself, exhausts itself, in the sea of our unconscious. Having read it, we carry the book inside us forever.
I came to New York in 2008 not knowing a thing about fashion, but even back then I knew Opening Ceremony was this beautiful, welcoming beacon on the shores of taste, shooting up gorgeous flares for us wayward souls at sea.
I loved the energy of Dublin and the fact that it’s so close to the sea, with beauty spots such as Howth so close to hand.
What is important to me is that the world understand that the problems of the Dead Sea concern not only residents of the region but humanity.
My mum lives near Holkham Bay in Norfolk, and with my dad by the coast in Suffolk, I spend quite a bit of time by the sea.
The sea change that has come is the information age. We don’t have to just read The New York Times anymore. We can pull up something on the Internet and get any news that we like.
All the rivers run into the sea; yet the sea is not full.
But I’ve never really done anything that implies any kind of danger. I wouldn’t skydive, I wouldn’t deep sea dive, I wouldn’t parachute. I think you’re really just rolling the dice. Who packed your chute the night before?
The U.S. must differentiate between controversial assertions of power, like those in the South China Sea, and fair reflections of China’s growing contribution to the world, such as the new banks.
I love cities that are on the water. I love the water element, specifically the sea. I grew up on the sea and I grew up sailing – I love sailing – and the presence of the sea gives the air and the light a very special quality that I absolutely adore.
Beauty – what is beauty, forsooth? Form and color; that is, surface only. Fortune – what is fortune? Nothing is ever a pleasure or a real profit to him who has to labour for it. Truth – you die in the pursuit, and the sea beats the beach as it did a thousand years ago. The stolid are alone happy.
‘Changes in Latitudes’ began when I was looking at a photograph of a sea turtle swimming underwater. I had such a strong feeling for the beauty of this ancient creature, at home in the sea. On the spot, I wanted to swim with that turtle. I began to imagine a character who would do just that.
I even got invited to a ‘Star Trek’ sea cruise. That was pretty exciting.
I have been on a horrible sea cruise. When my wife and I went to Mexico, Jamaica, and the Cayman Islands, I was seasick for a lot of the time. I didn’t like being trapped on a ship with a bunch of shuffleboarders.
Sure, cricket on a beach on the isle of Jura is different from a Test match in a stadium in Galle, 6000 miles away, despite the sea air.
Scotland is so gorgeous that every time I’m there, I start to dream of living there. I want to buy one of those whitewashed cottages with the thatch roofs and gaze out at the sea and read my books. I want to be away from the Internet and the news and lawn mowers at 7 A.M. on Sunday mornings.
‘The Sea Wolf’ is the story of a man who believes only in brute force. He is so firm in belief in his own ideas that he despises all who disagree with him. He preaches the doctrine of intolerance. He flaunts the notion that democracy is anything but weakness.
I am not a fan of being in the sea. I like being in a boat – sailing.
Beijing’s imperial reach extends far and wide, from Taiwan and Xinjiang to the South China Sea and beyond.
If you walk into my wardrobe, it’s kind of hilarious. It’s a sea of black.
Old friends call me Sea Salt, because my last name is Salter. Or Cocoa, cause my real first name is Courtney.
Mexican food is far more varied than people think. It changes like dialects. I was brought up in Jalisco by the sea on a basic diet – tomatoes, chillis, peppers of every size and rice, which is a Mexican staple. The Pacific coast has a huge array of seafood.
I’m fair-skinned, so beaches are a bit boring for me. I’m either smeared in lotion or under a shade. However, I do love the sea – diving, swimming and snorkelling.
My preference is swimming in the sea. I find the sea is more liberating, wild and good fun rather than plodding up and down a pool.
If there’s one thing that 2009 showed us, it’s that everything is happening everywhere, across multiple platforms, each one making waves that end up crashing against each other and commingling into one giant media sea.
I have a very nice garden and extraordinary markets, where there are products from the earth and the sea, in the French Basque country.
Bakhchisaray was formerly the capital of the Crimean khanate and once an important crossroad of the Silk Road, where traders met from across the Black Sea, the steppes of Central Asia, Russia, and eastern Europe.
The breaking of a wave cannot explain the whole sea.
Swimming outside the pool is scary. I don’t like not knowing what’s underneath me – it’s quite dark in lakes. I swam in the sea in Australia around the Great Barrier Reef, though, and that was incredible because you could see exactly what was underneath you.
I would read fishing reports on the road and then it just occurred to me: I should go to sea school and get my captain’s license, see if I can get paid to be out here every day.
When the seagulls follow the trawler, it’s because they think sardines will be thrown into the sea.
I have been a lover of the sea ever since I can remember.
I never was on the dull, tame shore, But I loved the great sea more and more.
I feel we are all islands – in a common sea.
The jazz rhythm won’t be understood by the bulk of my audience. That’s the problem. We can get away with maybe one tune a night. It depends on where we place it. A song like ‘Beyond the Sea,’ the fans love that. It’s fresh.
I come from a little island with the Caribbean Sea on one side and the Atlantic Ocean on the other. I come from, really, nowhere, and for me, the fiction and the nonfiction, creative or otherwise, all come from the same place.
