Famous quotes containing the words christmas and/or swim:
“A woman spent all Christmas Day in a telephone box without ringing anyone. If someone comes to phone, she leaves the box, then resumes her place afterwards. No one calls her either, but from a window in the street, someone watched her all day, no doubt since they had nothing better to do. The Christmas syndrome.”
—Jean Baudrillard (b. 1929)
“To me, the sea is like a personlike a child that Ive known a long time. It sounds crazy, I know, but when I swim in the sea I talk to it. I never feel alone when Im out there.”
—Gertrude Ederle (b. 1906)
