“We called them theochemists,” Marie said. They stuck out in more ways than one. “They were really straitlaced, they didn’t drink—you’d give them a drink and they’d throw it in a potted plant.” In contrast, other Lamonters, by the close of the rowdy Friday afternoon parties, were much more likely to be found facedown in the potted plants. Kulp”
Hali Felt, Soundings: The Story of the Remarkable Woman Who Mapped the Ocean Floor

“Marie eventually inherited this collection, just as she inherited her father’s acuity for what he called “reading nature.”
Hali Felt, Soundings: The Story of the Remarkable Woman Who Mapped the Ocean Floor

“Later, when she wakes up, the sun has set and the light in the car is violet and jade. Her mouth is dry as cotton and she lets her face fall toward the window. And there they are, behind her: not mountains, not really, just some fog-shrouded cardboard cutouts retreating in the distance. “One of the most colossal disappointments in my whole life,” she called them, more than fifty years later. “Not a goddamn mountain in sight.”
