“I felt I was moving among two groups [literary intellectuals and scientists] comparable in intelligence, identical in race, not grossly different in social origin, earning about the same incomes, who had almost ceased to communicate at all, who in intellectual, moral and psychological climate had so little in common that instead of going from Burlington Hom or South Kensington to Chelsea, one might have crossed an ocean.” LittlesTwoDifferentMightMovingScienceSocialFeltCommonRaceMoralGroupsSocietyOceanIntellectualScientistSouthClimateCommunicateIncomePsychologicalEarningIdenticalChelsea Author:C.P.

“Organic life beneath the shoreless waves Was born and rais’d in Ocean’s pearly caves First forms minute, unseen by spheric glass, Move on the mud, or pierce the watery mass; These, as successive generations bloom, New powers acquire, and larger limbs assume; Whence countless groups of vegetation spring, And breathing realms of fin, and feet and wing.” FirstsMovingFormBornGenerationsGroupsFeetMinutesOceanMassSpringWingsAssumingGlassesWaveBreathingRealmsAcquireUnseenMudCavesLimbsPierceVegetationFinsOrganic Life Author:Erasmus Darwin

“A river finds its course with sureness, pushing aside whatever surface matter lies in its way, and as it gathers volume and resulting strength, nothing can withstand its progress. It carves canyons, moves great boulders, erodes the soil, moving insistently onward in its surging need to reach its final goal - the ocean.” WayNeedsMatterMovingLyingCoursesGoalProgressOceanRiversFinalsSurfaceSoilPushingVolumeCanyonsErodeBoulders Author:Laura Gilpin

“I felt that I could swim for miles, out into the ocean: a desire for freedom, an impulse to move, tugged at me as though it were a thread fastened to my chest. It was an impulse I knew well, and I had learned that it was not the summons from a larger world I used to believe it to be. It was simply a desire to escape from what I had.” WorldBelieveWellsMovingUsedDesireFeltOceanMilesImpulseSwimChestsThread Book:Outline Source: Outline
“What worries me, especially, is that public opinion over here is patting itself on the back every morning and thanking God for theAtlantic Ocean (and the Pacific Ocean). We greatly underestimate the serious implications to our own future....
