Ocean Quotes

“We traded an accordian of hours for wood.”
― Sue Goyette, Ocean

“It won every staring contest. Would laugh
at our jokes. It was the original god of hypnosis

and made us all feel sleepy. Over time, it became

beyond our buildings. If we drove to its feet,
it wasn't to confront it, but more to adjust

our own reflections, straighten out our hearts with the old
if-you-know-what's-good-for-you talk.”
― Sue Goyette, Ocean
