Swimming is one of the hardest sports.
Stephanie Rice

Just for you non-sea-god types out there, don't go swimming in New York Harbor. It may not be as filthy as it was in my mom's day, but that water will still probably make you grow a third eye or have mutant children when you grow up.
Rick Riordan

Swimming is probably the ultimate of burnout sports. It's ironic because millions of people who swim as their regular exercise love the meditation aspect of it you don't wind up with any orthopedic injuries. But when you swim at a world class level for hours and hours - the loneness of the long distance runner.

The key to good decision making is not knowledge. It is understanding. We are swimming in the former. We are desperately lacking in the latter.

I seldom meet actors, they are to me bright strange fishes swimming in an element alien to me I feel that to meet them is to See Life.

There is always room at the top.

I love to exercise outside in the fresh air and sun: hiking, swimming, stand-up paddleboarding, and jogging.

The Beatles were huge for me, ... I used to jump around the room to the red album, the one with all the early hits on it. It made you feel euphoric. It was a sensation I couldn't get from anything else, whether it was playing football, swimming or even seeing 'Star Wars.'

I feel like I’m living in a prison. There are so many things I may not experience. I cannot go swimming, can’t visit relatives, can’t get a job, can’t have a boyfriend. I see so much of life I cannot have. I am living in a veritable prison.

I never saw film stars at home. We had no maid, no cook, no swimming pool.
Natalie Wood
Image
I'm satisfied in a way because this is an eye opener for me, ... I didn't have the success I've always been able to have. I learned a lot.
Michael Phelps

I taught Brad Pitt how to fly-fish in my swimming pool!
Melissa Etheridge

Interest and proficiency in almost any one activity-swimming, boating, fishing, skiing, skating-breed interest in many more. Once someone discovers the delight of mastering one skill, however slightly, he is likely to try out not just one more, but a whole ensemble.

I worked at an all-black swimming pool in the east side of Wilmington, I was involved in what the Negroes, I mean, blacks were thinking, what they were feeling.
Joe Biden

There is water in every lane, so it is OK.
Ian Thorpe

You are never given a wish without also being given the power to make it come true. You may have to work for it, however.
Richard Bach
Image
I love to watch movies, go swimming and just chill. Fun stuff relaxes me.
Jessica Andrews

I've always wanted to like, swim in a swimming pool filled with peanut butter
Jesse McCartney

Mainly, I like to have fun. Swimming is all about having fun, and I am firm believer that you should keep swimming as long as you are having fun, but I can say that it becomes much more fun as you get older and learn more about the sport, life, and especially more about yourself

You can tell it's a poem because it's swimming in a little gel pack of white space. That shows it's a poem.
Nicholson Baker

You see people swimming, and you think, oh, how wonderful to swim. But most people stand on the edge swaying back and forth, afraid to jump. They don't think they can swim.
Tenzin Palmo

Isn’t making a smoking section in a restaurant like making a peeing section in a swimming pool?
George Carlin

I love swimming in the darker seas, so even if I play a noble guy (well, like Lincoln for instance) I am pre-disposed to try and show the conflict the regret the less-than-perfect choices that any human faces. That's what I like and it seems to be what the camera likes to see me do.

If you bound the arms and legs of gold-medal swimmer Michael Phelps, weighed him down with chains, threw him in a pool and he sank, you wouldn't call it a 'failure of swimming.' So, when markets have been weighted down by inept and excessive regulation, why call this a 'failure of capitalism'?
