lyrics

“A man who is not afraid of the sea will soon be drowned
...but we do be afraid of the sea, and we do only be drowned now and again.”
– John Millington Synge, The Aran Islands, pt. II

“Suave, mari magno turbantibus aequora ventis,
E terra Magnum alterius spectare laborem;”
[Lovely it is, when the winds are churning up the
waves on the great sea, to gaze out from the land
on the great efforts of someone else]
– Lucretius, De Rerum Natura, ii.1

“The sea will rise . . .
please stand by the shore . . .
I will be . . .
I will be. . . .
there once more . . .”
– Eddie Vedder, Oceans

“O Body swayed to music, O brightening glance,
how can we know the dancer from the dance.”
– W. B. Yeats, Among School Children VIII
