“To stand at
the edge of the sea, to sense the ebb and flow of the tides, to feel the breath
of a mist moving over a great salt marsh, to watch the flight of shore birds
that have swept up and down the surf lines of the continents for untold
thousands of years, to see the running of the old eels and the young shad to
the sea, is to have knowledge of things that are as nearly eternal as any
earthly life can be.” ~Rachel Carson
