The ocean is the last frontier of human empirical knowledge; even the contours on that eighth-grader's globe are the product of a mix of scientific measurement, inference and conjecture.
‐‐ Alan Huffman
The ocean is the lifeblood of our world. If we were to lose our fish that we appreciate so much by overfishing; or if we were to lose some of our favorite beaches to overbuilding and pollution, then how would we feel? It's become a case of not knowing what you've got until it's gone.

The ocean is this beautiful, unexplored place. Why on Earth everyone isn't down there, I don't know.
‐‐ Graham Hawkes
The ocean moans over dead men's bones.

The Oceanic White Tip is considered one of the most dangerous sharks in the sea along with the Great White and Tiger. It is responsible for some of the most famous episodes of man-eating in history, such as when the U.S.S. Indianapolis sank in 1945.

The oceans are more or less in disrepair. Long Beach really is making an effort to acknowledge this, and that's a great place to start. I'm trying to spread at least the knowledge that it's never too early to take care of our oceans and our environment.

The oceans are the last free place on the planet.
‐‐ Paul Watson
The oceans have been a part of my life for as long as I remember. As a child, I spent hours playing in the surf off Cape Cod. In college, I fished along the rocky coast of Nova Scotia with my school's fishing team.
‐‐ Frances Beinecke
The oceans produce up to 70 percent of our oxygen, they shape our climate, and they support an American oceans economy larger than our nation's entire agriculture sector.
‐‐ Frances Beinecke
The oceans that surround the world produce 185 billion tons of CO2 per annum. Man per annum only produces six billion tons, so what could possibly be the concern?

The odd thing about being a writer is you do tend to lose yourself in your books. Sometimes it seems like real life is flickering by and you're hardly a part of it. You remember the events in your books better than you remember the events that actually took place when you were writing them.
‐‐ George R. R. Martin
The odd thing about comedy is that the more personal you are, the larger the audience.
‐‐ David Steinberg
The odd thing about 'Cripple of Inishmaan' is it's never actually been performed on the island.
‐‐ Garry Hynes
The odd thing is, I don't consider what I do work, because it's what I love. But it is also an enormous amount of pressure, and you have to work an enormous amount of hours.
‐‐ Maria Menounos
The odd thing is if you asked me to do the accent now I would find it very difficult unless I was also playing that part, because I associate it so much with entering into the role and stepping into someone else's shoes.
‐‐ Emily Mortimer
The odds against an adoptee ending up as the child of the President of the United States are staggering. But then, so are the odds against a movie star becoming president.
‐‐ Michael Reagan
The odds against there being a bomb on a plane are a million to one, and against two bombs a million times a million to one. Next time you fly, cut the odds and take a bomb.
‐‐ Benny Hill
The odds are always against you no matter what your previous history is. You have to overcome the tendency to relax.
‐‐ Tom Osborne
The odds are definitely better on getting the right job than getting a good partner for life. Someone who will grow with you. Someone to develop memories with. Someone who was there in the beginning. Someone who will be there at the end.
‐‐ Mika Brzezinski
The odds are not in your favor the older you get, especially if you're a woman in this business.
‐‐ Patricia Clarkson
The odds of being successful are the same for every group that is educated in America. It's just that the group that is not wealthy is 95 percent of the population. So if there are 100 successful people in a room, probably 95 out of 100 came from more modest means.
‐‐ Michael Eisner
The odds of me coming into the rocket business, not knowing anything about rockets, not having ever built anything, I mean, I would have to be insane if I thought the odds were in my favor.
‐‐ Elon Musk
The odds were against us, but we deserve to be where we are.
‐‐ Steven Gerrard
The ode lives upon the ideal, the epic upon the grandiose, the drama upon the real.
‐‐ Victor Hugo
The Odyssey is, indeed, one of the greatest of all stories, it is the original romance of the West; but the Iliad, though a magnificent poem, is not much of a story.
‐‐ George Saintsbury
The odyssey is not going out and seeing the world: it's about trying to get home. It's home to the woman you love.
‐‐ Pete Hamill
'The Odyssey' is the great tale, and I was really taken by 'The Iliad,' so I dig into those things, and when I was a kid I didn't. You've gotta have a certain level of understanding yourself before that stuff really starts to resonate.
‐‐ Karl Marlantes
The Odyssey is the story of Americans up to the point where they are well-established, and even so it is detached from the historical side.
‐‐ Raymond Queneau
The Odyssey is the story of someone who, in the course of diverse experiences, acquires a personality or affirms and recovers his personality.
‐‐ Raymond Queneau
The offender never pardons.
‐‐ George Herbert
The offers I get are for grandfathers, uncles - and they often die very quickly in the script.
‐‐ Max von Sydow
The offhand decision of some commonplace mind high in office at a critical moment influences the course of events for a hundred years.
‐‐ Thomas Hardy
The office building is a building for work, organization, lucidity and economy. Light, spacious working rooms, clearly arranged, undivided, only organized according to the pattern of the firm.
‐‐ Ludwig Mies van der Rohe
The Office for Budget Responsibility correctly stay out of the political debate and do not assess the long-term costs and benefits of E.U. membership.
‐‐ George Osborne
The office has oversight of people who do analysis and oversight of people who do operations, but it is not charged with doing either. That is an important point to make. Those functions are performed by the CIA, DIA and other agencies.
‐‐ Stephen Cambone
The office is a romantic enabler because you're always around the person you have a crush on. There's no escape from, and maybe no desire to escape from, those pressure-cooker conditions. And there's an automatic series of things you have to talk about all the time.
‐‐ Joshua Ferris
'The Office' is clearly the funniest show on TV. But I can't live without watching 'Eureka.' It's my favorite show of all time, and I watch it constantly on my iPod.
‐‐ Matthew Underwood
'The Office' is less a comedy than so many other 'comedies' that have been on the air. It's really about the balance between what is real and what is comic.
‐‐ B. J. Novak
'The Office' is not one of those things you move away from. I don't want it to go away.
‐‐ John Krasinski
The office is the laboratory and meeting your users is like going into the field. You can't just stay in the lab. And it's not just asking users what they want, it's about seeing what they're doing.
‐‐ Brian Chesky
The Office of Congressional Ethics was created to provide more transparency in the House of Representatives. It was a commendable goal.
‐‐ Marcia Fudge
The office of drama is to exercise, possibly to exhaust, human emotions. The purpose of comedy is to tickle those emotions into an expression of light relief; of tragedy, to wound them and bring the relief of tears. Disgust and terror are the other points of the compass.
‐‐ Laurence Olivier
The office of poetry is not to make us think accurately, but feel truly.
‐‐ Frederick William Robertson
The office of presbyters is a permanent one.
‐‐ Charles Hodge
The office of President is a great one; to every true American it seems the greatest on earth. And to me, as I was engaged in weaving a background of music for the pageantry of it, there came a deeper realization of the effect of that office on the man.
‐‐ John Philip Sousa
The office of the president is the most powerful in the world. It is also, at times, the most powerless.
‐‐ Mark McKinnon
The office of the public teacher is an unenviable and thankless one.
‐‐ Felix Adler
The Office of the Solicitor General has a deeply ingrained fundamental institutional culture that has stood the test of time for decades. I went because I wanted to do public service and do an appellate practice at the very highest levels I could.
‐‐ Sri Srinivasan
The official Hamas charter calls for the murder of Jews and destruction of the Jewish state.
