Water is the best of all things.
If you gave me several million years, there would be nothing that did not grow in beauty if it were surrounded by water. Not necessary to life, but rather life itself, thou fillest us with a gratification that exceeds the delight of the senses. When the well's dry, we know the worth of water. Our survival is just as much at stake as it was at the time of Pearl Harbor, or the Argonne, or Gettysburg, or Saratoga. Children of a culture born in a water-rich environment, we have never really learned how important water is to us.
