Sylvia Earle Water Quotations

The Arctic is an ocean. The southern pole is a continent surrounded by ocean. The North Pole is an ocean, or northern waters. It's an ocean surrounded by land, basically.

It doesn't matter where on Earth you live, everyone is utterly dependent on the existence of that lovely, living saltwater soup. There's plenty of water in the universe without life, but nowhere is there life without water.

I've always said, 'Underwater or on top, men and women are compatible.'

There's plenty of water in the universe without life, but nowhere is there life without water.

Even if you never have the chance to see or touch the ocean, the ocean touches you with every breath you take, every drop of water you drink, every bite you consume. Everyone, everywhere is inextricably connected to and utterly dependent upon the existence of the sea.

No water, no life. No blue, no green.

With every drop of water you drink, every breath you take, you're connected to the sea. No matter where on Earth you live.
