Kindle Notes & Highlights
How much has it warmed the oceans, to give you birth? How many species have died so that you can live?
You know me now. You know him as well as I did. Maybe better. You have raised the dead and given us one more turn. Now tell me how this long match ought to end.
The author of all this richness does nothing but find the next most likely word.
the endlessly reinventing kinds of entangled life before him will find their way past those toxins into the next new world.
every island is a canoe, and all the Earth is an island, living by the grace of the immense and slowly turning blue creature.
The girl will grow up to lead a team that will train the children of men to speak the languages of ocean creatures and translate them into words humans can understand. What the animals say will bring hundreds of millions of people back home to Planet Ocean.
What are all creatures—even me—doing at all times but playing in the world, playing before their tinkering Lord?
