More quotes by Jacques Yves Cousteau
The sea is not a bargain basement.
Jacques Yves Cousteau
To restate an old law - when a man bites a fish, that's good, but when a fish bites a man, that's bad. This is one way of saying it's all right if man kills an animal, but if an animal attacks man, the act is reprehensible.
Jacques Yves Cousteau
We must plant the sea and herd its animals using the sea as farmers instead of hunters. That is what civilization is all about - farming replacing hunting.
Jacques Yves Cousteau
Mankind has probably done more damage to the Earth in the 20th century than in all of previous human history.
Jacques Yves Cousteau
I experimented with all possible maneuvers-loops, somersaults and barrel rolls. I stood upside down on one finger and burst out laughing, a shrill, distorted laugh. Nothing I did altered the automatic rhythm of the air. Delivered from gravity and buoyancy, I flew around in space.
Jacques Yves Cousteau
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.
Jacques Yves Cousteau
Without ethics, everything happens as if we were all five billion passengers on a big machinery and nobody is driving the machinery. And it's going faster and faster, but we don't know where.
Jacques Yves Cousteau
Through the window of my mask I see a wall of coral, its surface a living kaleidoscope of lilac flecks, splashes of gold, reddish streaks and yellows, all tinged by the familiar transparent blue of the sea.
Jacques Yves Cousteau
The best way to observe a fish is to become a fish.
Jacques Yves Cousteau
The awareness of our environment came progressively in all countries with different outlets.
Jacques Yves Cousteau
There are no boundaries in the real Planet Earth. No United States, no Soviet Union, no China, no Taiwan...Rivers flow unimpeded across the swaths of continents. The persistent tides - the pulse of the sea - do not discriminate they push against all the varied shores on Earth.
Jacques Yves Cousteau
Man, of all the animals, is probably the only one to regard himself as a great delicacy.
Jacques Yves Cousteau
The road to the future leads us smack into the wall. We simply ricochet off the alternatives that destiny offers. Our survival is no more than a question of 25, 50 or perhaps 100 years.
Jacques Yves Cousteau
I am not a scientist. I am, rather, an impresario of scientists.
Jacques Yves Cousteau
Man has only to sink beneath the surface and he is free.
Jacques Yves Cousteau
All life is part of a complex relationship in which each is dependent upon the others, taking from, giving to and living with all the rest.
Jacques Yves Cousteau
The real cure for our environmental problems is to understand that our job is to salvage Mother Nature. We are facing a formidable enemy in this field. It is the hunters... and to convince them to leave their guns on the wall is going to be very difficult.
Jacques Yves Cousteau
I was playing when I invented the aqualung. I think play is the most serious thing in the world.
Jacques Yves Cousteau
The United Nation's goal is to reduce population selectively by encouraging abortion, forced sterilization, and control of human reproduction, and regards two-thirds of the human population as excess baggage, with 350,000 people to be eliminated per day.
Jacques Yves Cousteau
The sea is the universal sewer.
