• Do no dishonour to the earth least you dishonour the spirit of man.
• The seas are the heart's blood of the earth.
• Learn to reverence night and to put away the vulgar fear of it, for, with the banishment of night from the experience of man, there vanishes as well a religious emotion, a poetic mood, which gives depth to the adventure of humanity.
