Peter Benchley
“a rope and pull, that’ll bring the”
Peter Benchley, Jaws

“Love looks not with the eyes, but with the mind.”
Amanda Adams, The Voyeur's Yacht

Alan Weisman
“He knew the terrible tales of sea otters choking on polyethylene rings from beer six-packs; of swans and gulls strangled by nylon nets and fishing lines; of a green sea turtle in Hawaii dead with a pocket comb, a foot of nylon rope, and a toy truck wheel lodged in its gut. His personal worst”
Alan Weisman, The World Without Us

Charles Darwin
“In the latter country alone, very many (probably several hundred) square miles are covered by one mass of these prickly plants, and are impenetrable by man or beast. Over the undulating plains, where these great beds occur, nothing else can now live. Before their introduction, however, the surface must have supported, as in other parts, a rank herbage. I doubt whether any case is on record of an invasion on so grand a scale of one plant over the aborigines.”
Charles Darwin, A Naturalist's Voyage Round the World: The Voyage of the Beagle
