Dolphins Quotes - Page 5

• People don't just get upset. They contribute to their upsetness. They always have the power to think, and to think about their thinking, and to think about thinking about their thinking, which the goddamn dolphin, as far as we know, can't do. Therefore they have much greater ability to change themselves than any other animal has, and I hope that REBT teaches them how to do it.

• He was rewarded with a silver-and-red can of soda. He brandished it at the dolphin warriors as if spraying them with bug repellant. "Behold!" Percy shouted. "The god's chosen beverage. Tremble before the horror of Diet Coke!" The dolphin-men began to panic. They were on the edge of retreat. Percy could feel it.

• I've read that male dolphins try to have sex with humans, and female apes solicit sex from humans. What is wrong with giving them what they want, if that's what turns you on, or even just to gratify them?

• What can books of men that wive
  In a dragon-guarded land,
  Paintings of the dolphin-drawn
  Sea-nymphs in their pearly wagons
  Do, but awake a hope to live...?

• My experience protesting with Mojave Dolphins, and the other wonderful animal activists, can be described in a few words: inspiring, motivational and purposeful. The execution of the protests is incredible; the signs are amazing, creative and eye catching. You can really feel the unity in the group, running like a well oiled machine towards the goal of liberating our captive animal friends.

• Porque el mundo está loco y se volverá más loco si permitimos que las minorías, ya sean enanos o gigantes, orangutanes o delfines, cabezas nucleares o conversadores del agua, proinformáticos o neoluditas, simplones o sabios, interfieran en la estética. El mundo real es el terreno de juego de todos y cada uno de los grupos, para hacer o deshacer leyes. Pero en la punta de la nariz de mi libro o de mis cuentos o de mis poemas es donde acaban sus derechos y empiezan, corren y mandan mis imperativos territoriales.

• You ever go to shop for tuna, and it says "dolphin safe", and you look at it and kind of go, "Yeah, but"-like somehow you think it's not going to be as good? Like, "I want to do the right thing-but it's probably kind of bland without the dolphin."

• If you're gay, you're gay. It's my Dennis Miller theory of homosexuality shot through the movie "Boy and the Dolphin." If you're a 12-year-old boy and you're watching the movie "Boy and a Dolphin" and a 27-year-old Sofia Loren crawls up out of the Aegean Sea after sponge diving, she's standing there in the deck of the boat in a see-through gauze top, rivulets of water dripping off her torso onto the deck of the boat. If you're a 12-year-old boy and you're watching that and you still want to make it with the captain of the boat, you're gay. You can't fight that. So it is what it is.

• Save yourselves!" Percy warned. "It is too late for us!" Then he gasped and pointed to the spot where Frank was hiding. "oh no! Frank is turning into a crazy dolphin!" Nothing happened. "I said," Percy repeated, "Frank is turning into a crazy dolphin." Frank stumbled out of nowhere, making a big show of grabbing his throat. "oh no," he said, like he was reading from a teleprompter, "I am turning into a crazy dolphin.

• It is hard to get animals which normally pay little attention to each other to do things together. One can teach dolphins to jump simultaneously out of the water precisely because they show similar behavior spontaneously, but try to make two domestic cats jump together and you will fail.

• I did Bronislaw Kaper's tune. He wrote "On Green Dolphin Street." I mean, I did all those ballads, all them ballads from South America. All those tunes - the guitar concerto on Sketches Of Spain. All those are Spanish melodies. Some of them we made up ourselves.

• My daughter saw this billboard for this place: 'Swim With the Dolphins.' She goes, 'I wanna do that.' I said, 'It's a lot of money - forget about it.' She said, 'Dad, I always wanted to swim with the dolphins.' 'Always, or since you saw the sign?

• Imagínense los titulares que aparecerían si un biólogo marino descubriera una especie de delfín que tejiera grandes redes de pesca de malla intrincada, de veinte metros de diámetro. Sin embargo, damos por sentada una tela de araña, como una molestia en casa y no como una de las maravillas del mundo. Y pensemos en el revuelo que se armaría si Jane Goodall regresara del arroyo Gombe con fotografías de chimpancés salvajes construyendo sus propias casas, bien techadas y aisladas, con piedras cuidadosamente seleccionadas, unidas con esmero y argamasa. Sin embargo, las larvas de caddis, que hacen precisamente eso, sólo despiertan un interés pasajero.

• But we still find the world astounding, we can't get enough of it; even as it shrivels, even as its many lights flicker and are extinguished (the tigers, the leopard frogs, the plunging dolphin flukes), flicker and are extinguished, by us, by us, we gaze and gaze. Where do you draw the line, between love and greed? We never did know, we always wanted more. We want to take it all in, for one last time, we want to eat the world with our eyes.

• Si por mí fuera", dijo Dionisio, "haría que vuestras moléculas estallaran en llamas. Barreríamos las cenizas y acabaríamos con un montón de problemas. Pero Quirón parece pensar que esto iría en contra de mi misión en este campamento maldito: manteneros a vosotros, mocosos, a salvo de cualquier daño." "La combustión espontánea es una forma de daño, Sr. D", dijo Quirón. "Tonterías", dijo Dionisio. "El niño no sentiría nada. Sin embargo, he accedido a contenerme. Estoy pensando en convertirte en delfín y enviarte de vuelta con tu padre.

• In the late-'80s, there was a big push to make American football big in Scotland. The Super Bowl was on TV, but it didn't really catch on. When I was a kid, though, I became a big Miami Dolphins fan. I don't really know why - I just liked the logo, I guess. I didn't really know what was going on.
