He that will learn to pray, let him go to sea.


I must go down to the sea again, to the lonely sea and the sky; and all I ask is a tall ship and a star to steer her by.

The ocean moans over dead men's bones.


The only cure for seasickness is to sit on the shady side of a church in the country.


The sea complains upon a thousand shores.
