“People ask: Why should I care about the ocean?
Because the ocean is the cornerstone
of earth’s life support system,
it shapes climate and weather.
It holds most of life on earth; 97% of earth’s water is there.
It’s the blue heart of the planet —
we should take care of our heart.
It’s what makes life possible for us.
We still have a really good chance
to make things better than they are.
They won’t get better unless we take the action
and inspire others to do the same thing.
No one is without power.
Everybody has the capacity to do something.”

“There is such solace in the mere sight of water.
It clothes us delicately in its blowing salt and scent,
gossamer items that medicate the poor soul”

“Water records information,
and while circulating throughout the earth
distributes information.
This water sent from the universe
is full of the information of life…”

“No one can know the infinite importance
of a tiny drop of water better than a thirsty bird
or a little ant or a man of desert!”

“To be fully alive
is to have an aesthetic perception of life
because a major part of the world’s goodness
lies in its often unspeakable beauty.”
