Θάλασσα πικροθάλασσα

I love the sea's sounds and the way it reflects the sky. The colours that shimmer across its surface are unbelievable. This, combined with the colour of the water over white sand, surprises me every time.

John Dyer

To me, the sea is like a person - like a child that I've known a long time. It sounds crazy, I know, but when I swim in the sea I talk to it. I never feel alone when I'm out there.

Gertrude Ederle

You can't cross the sea merely by standing and staring at the water. Don't let yourself indulge in vain wishes.

Rabindranath Tagore

The sea complains upon a thousand shores.

Alexander Smith

The sea speaks a language polite people never repeat. It is a colossal scavenger slang and has no respect.

Carl Sandburg

Δεν νιώθω καλά να φοράω μπικίνι μπροστά σε ξένους. Δεν το κάνω ποτέ, ούτε στην πισίνα. Είμαι σαν όλους τους ανθρώπους όσον αφορά τέτοια θέματα, σαν κάθε άλλο κορίτσι που δεν θέλει να δείχνει τον πισινό του.

Elizabeth Hurley

Αυτό το μπικίνι μού έφερε την επιτυχία.

Οι στατιστικές είναι σαν το μπικίνι. Αυτό που αποκαλύπτουν είναι υπαινικτικό, αλλά αυτό που συγκαλύπτουν είναι ζωτικής σημασίας.

Aaron Levenstein

Το μπικίνι είναι μια πράξη απερισκεψίας.

Esther Williams

Ένα μπικίνι δεν είναι μπικίνι αν δεν μπορείς να το περάσεις μέσα από ένα δαχτυλίδι αρραβώνων.

“People do not seem to realize that their opinion of the world is also a confession of character.”

What gets us into trouble is not what we don't know. It’s what we know for sure that just ain't so.

Mark Twain

If you had a big globe with a coat of varnish on it, the thickness of that varnish relative to that globe is pretty much the same as the thickness of the earth's atmosphere compared to the earth itself.

Carl Sagan

The era of procrastination, of half-measures, of soothing and baffling expedients, of delays, is coming to its close. In its place we are entering a period of consequences.

Sir Winston Churchill

Doubt is our product since it is the best means of competing with the 'body of fact' that exists in the mind of the general public. It is also the means of establishing a controversy.

Brown & Williamson Tobacco Company

It is difficult to get a man to understand something when his salary depends upon his not understanding it.

Upton Sinclair

Humanity already possesses the fundamental scientific, technical, and industrial know-how to solve the carbon and climate problems.
