Quote by Thomas Traherne

You never enjoy the world aright, till the sea itself floweth in your veins, till you are clothed with the heavens and crowned with the stars.

You never enjoy the world aright, till the sea itself flowet

Summary

This quote suggests that true enjoyment of the world is achieved when one feels intimately connected to nature and the universe. It implies that one must embrace the vastness of the sea, symbolizing its untamed beauty, and allow it to flow within them. By being "clothed with the heavens and crowned with the stars," the quote implies that full enjoyment comes from feeling a part of something greater than oneself, from embracing the celestial wonders and cosmic mysteries, and allowing them to enrich one's experience of the world.
