Jacques Yves Cousteau

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

"No sooner does man discover intelligence than he tries to involve it in his own stupidity."

"The sea, the great unifier, is man's only hope. Now, as never before, the old phrase has a literal meaning: we are all in the same boat."

"I am not a scientist. I am, rather, an impresario of scientists."

"People protect what they love."
