“One if by land, two if by sea.”
“For the land, the sea is beautiful; for the sea, the land is beautiful!”
“In the Holy Land are two ancient bodies of water. Both are fed by the Jordan River. In one, fish play and roots find sustenance. In the other, there is no splash of fish, no sound of bird, no leaf around. The difference is not in the Jordan, for it empties into both, but in the Sea of Galilee: for every drop taken in one goes out. It gives and lives. The other gives nothing. And it is called the Dead Sea.”
“That night, the sea had invaded the land.”
“Legends flourish in these borders between land and sea.”
“We landed, in fact, parallel to a canal, like there were two runways: one for us and one for waterfowl.”
