“Things are never as they seem. A person. A Mark. A statement. They are always deeper than we perceive, like walking in the ocean and suddenly dipping under the surface because the bottom has disappeared beneath your feet. The water appears shallow until you are suddenly flailing around beneath the surface, desperately searching for stable ground once again.”
“I have always been fascinated by the ocean, to dip a limb beneath its surface and know that I'm touching eternity, that it goes on forever until it begins here again.”
“The art does not always mimic the artist. You never know the real person until you slide beneath their surface”
“He plunged beneath the surface and knew that these were Elyon's waters, and his lake had no bottom.”
“On the surface of the ocean, men wage war and destroy each other; but down here, just a few feet beneath the surface, there is a calm and peace, unmolested by man”
“...to slip beneath the surface and soar along the silent bottom of the sea agile and shining in water honeycombed with light.”
