Lost at Sea/Quotes

Everything About Fiction You Never Wanted to Know.

Alone, alone, all, all alone,
 Alone on a wide wide sea!
And never a saint took pity on
My soul in agony.

Water, water, everywhere,

But not a drop to drink!
—Samuel Taylor Coleridge, The Rime of the Ancient Mariner

Mister potman, do you have a letter for me
 from my own true love
lost at sea?

-- The Decemberists, "Lost at Sea"
