Sonar Quotes

So, great. This is Camp...what do you call it? Camp Fish-Blood?” Aphros frowned. "I hope that was a joke. This is Camp __________.” He made a sound that was a series of sonar pings and hisses. (Rick Riordan)
Dolphins read each other's emotions by sonar and it's the inside of the body, the configuration of the viscera, that lets dolphins know whether the dolphin they are meeting is tense or happy. Their emotions are much more connected with the insides of each other's bodies. We don't have that. It's like denying 90% of what we are physically, not knowing it. View quote

If you spend your life looking in vain for the Loch Ness Monster, stalking the lake with a camera, sounding it with sonar, and sending submersibles into its depths, and yet still find nothing, what is the more sensible view: to conclude provisionally that the monster simply isn't there, or to throw up your hands and say, "It might be there; I'm not sure”? Most people would give the first response-unless they're talking about God. View quote
