Famous quotes containing the word swimming:
“Loosed betwixt eye and lid, the swimming beams
Of memory, blind school of cuttlefish,
Rise to the air, plunge to the cold streams....”
—Allen Tate (18991979)
“The swimming hole is still in use. It has the same mudbank. It is still impossible to dress without carrying mud home in ones inner garments. As an engineer I could devise improvements for that swimming hole. But I doubt if the decrease in mothers grief at the homecoming of muddy boys would compensate the inherent joys of getting muddy.”
—Herbert Hoover (18741964)
“Whenever parents become overly invested in a particular skill or accomplishment, a childs fear of failure multiplies. This is why some children refuse to get into the pool for a swimming lesson, or turn their back on Daddys favorite sport.”
—Cathy Rindner Tempelsman (20th century)
