Water Cycle Quotes

“Joey was quiet, but finally he said, “This is going to sound really weird . . .”
 
Alice encouraged him by saying, “I love weird.”
 
Joey went on, feeling a little better. “One day when I was in the woods by the stream, I heard a voice . . .,” and the whole story tumbled out.”
― Ellen J. Lewinberg, Joey and His Friend Water

“Joey was lying by the stream one afternoon after a hard day. He had been in trouble at school because he had left his homework at home. He had done the work, but his teacher didn’t believe him that he had completed it. Joey was still a bit upset with his teacher.
 
Suddenly, he heard a very soft voice say, “Hello.”
 
Joey sat up and looked around, but he couldn’t see anyone. So, he laid back down by the stream only to hear the voice again.
 
The voice sounded bubbly and a little like running water. Joey didn’t know where it was coming from.”
― Ellen J. Lewinberg, Joey and His Friend Water

“Who can say where anything truly begins? The cloud, the raindrop, the original speck of dust around which water collects? We can only ever locate the middle when we get to the end. And then, at the absolute end, what’s the point in finding the middle, or even the beginning?”
― Colum McCann, Twist

“Clouds are very pretty from above. You can really appreciate their unique shapes, consistencies, the different colors they reflect. And that they’re a part of a system. If they were to turn gray and break, water would fall onto the mountains and flow down streams to lakes and rivers and eventually the sea. The water would support the cities and suburbs and the rural towns and farmland you can also see up here, down through them, the clouds. Haruka has a view of it all.”
― A.D. Aliwat, In Limbo

“Mother​ Nature​ gave​ us​ the​ Water​ Cycle​ (rainwater)​ so​ that​ all​ life​ on​ Earth​ could​ live. Man​ improved on​ that​ by​ giving​ us​ rainwater​ (polluted)​ so​ that​ all​ life​ on​ Earth​ could​ slowly​ die.”

“Most people won't bat an eyelid when they hear about PFAS in rainwater.
Why?
Because they will tell you that they drink bottled water.
That's when you tell them that rainwater waters their flowers, their vegetables, their livestock, our waterways and rivers.
We eat the vegetables. We consume the livestock. We fry the fish and swim in the waterways & oceans.
Rainwater goes everywhere and douses everything in moisture.
It's already in our blood streams and in our lungs and even if you tried to stop breathing & ingesting it, we couldn't because it's everywhere.
A half life of 3-4 years may not be a long period of time, but how do you stop what you can't?”

“They will need to rename the 'Water Cycle' after it was found to contain too much PFASs.
I suggest using the name, 'Perpolycarbonfluro Cycle' or 'PPCFC Cycle' for short.
It lasts on the tongue just like the contaminants that it recycles.”
