"The sea is everything. It covers seven tenths of the terrestrial globe. Its breath is pure and healthy. It is an immense desert, where man is never lonely, for he feels life stirring on all sides."~Jules Verne
“There is no more sagacious animal than the Icelandic horse. He is stopped by neither snow, nor storm, nor impassable roads, nor rocks, glaciers, or anything. He is courageous, sober, and surefooted. He never makes a false step, never shies. If there is a river or fjord to cross (and we shall meet with many) you will see him plunge in at once, just as if he were amphibious, and gain the opposite bank.” ~Jules Verne, Journey to the Center of the Earth from Goodreads
“We may brave human laws, but we cannot resist natural ones.” ~Jules Verne
"While his heart still beats, while his flesh still moves, I cannot accept that a being endowed with will-power can give in to despair." ~from Journey to the Center of the Earth (1864), by Jules Verne from Everyman's Library
