Jules Verne
Image
There is hope for the future, and when the world is ready for a new and better life, all these things will some day come to pass, - in God's good time

Jules Verne
Image
Civilization never recedes the law of necessity ever forces it onwards.
Jules Verne
Image
I see that it is by no means useless to travel, if a man wants to see something new
Jules Verne
Image
The sea is everything. It covers seven tenths of the terrestrial globe. Its breath is pure and healthy. It is an immense desert, where man is never lonely, for he feels life stirring on all sides.
Jules Verne
Image
As for Phileas Fogg, it seemed just as if the typhoon were a part of his programme
Jules Verne
Image
Savages!' he echoed, ironically. 'You set foot on one of the shores of this globe, professor, and you’re surprised to find savages? Where aren’t there savages? Besides, are they any worse than others, these whom you call savages?
Jules Verne
Image
The sea is only the embodiment of a supernatural and wonderful existence. It is nothing but love and emotion it is the 'Living Infinite.
Jules Verne
Image
I believe that water will one day be employed as fuel, that hydrogen and oxygen which constitute it, used singly or together, will furnish an inexhaustible source of heat and light, of an intensity of which coal is not capable.
Jules Verne
Image
The Nautilus was piercing the water with its sharp spur, after having accomplished nearly ten thousand leagues in three months and a half, a distance greater than the great circle of the earth. Where were we going now, and what was reserved for the future?
