Walk Along a Florida Beach
33 x 43.5 in
The sea is a desert of waves,
a wilderness of water.
Langston Hughes
poet, playwright
essential contributor to the Harlem Renaissance of the 1920s
Rest is not idleness, and to lie sometimes on the grass under the trees on a summer's day,
listening to the murmur of water,
or watching the clouds float across the blue sky,
is by no means waste of time.
John Lubbock
1st Baron Avebury
The Use of Life (1894), ch. IV: Recreation
You can't trust water:
Even a straight stick turns crooked in it.
