The happiness of the bee and the dolphin is to exist. For man it is to know that and to wonder at it.

No aquarium, no tank in a marine land, however spacious it may be, can begin to duplicate the conditions of the sea. And no dolphin who inhabits one of those aquariums or one of those marine lands can be considered normal.

What is a scientist after all? It is a curious man looking through a keyhole, the keyhole of nature, trying to know what's going on.

The sea, once it casts its spell, holds one in its net of wonder forever.

Man, of all the animals, is probably the only one to regard himself as a great delicacy.

When one man, for whatever reason, has the opportunity to lead an extraordinary life, he has no right to keep it to himself.
