Best Quotes
She'll probably have to swim about a 1:12. Her best last year was 1:17, but she swam for the Aggie Swim Club this March through July and I think that's going to make a very big difference in what she accomplishes this year. You can already see the difference in her in the water. She's already in pretty good shape and she got some pretty good instruction over the summer.

Andrew Quotes
I knew this was going to be our final swim, but it didn't hit me until Andrew dove into the water to start the relay. I was like this was going to be my last swim ever. I gave it my all. I think we all did and we tried our best. We didn't win, but winning's not all that matters sometimes.

Course Quotes
In my sophomore year at Fresno, they just threw me in, ... I needed that. I think I swim rather than sink. Of course there's going to be some bumps. But it also might go the other way, and there would be more good than everyone thinks there's going to be. But you've got to be out there to learn. To take the live bullets. To take the shots.

Companies Quotes
Genetic engineering companies want to create a situation where you have to get permission from a corporation to eat. And the corporate executives don't live in the community. They don't send their kids to the same school. They don't go to the same churches. They don't play in the same parks. They don't swim in the same pools. They don't go to the same movies.

Fighting Quotes
When a trout rising to a fly gets hoooked on a line and finds himself unable to swim about freeely, he begins with a fight which results in struggles and splashes and sometimes an escape.

Sometimes he masters his difficulties; sometimes they are too much for him. His struggles are all that the world sees and it naturally misunderstands them. It is hard for a free fish to understand what is happening to a hooked one.

Hair Quotes
Not like this vision before us, who was shaking water out of his slightly overlong reddish-brown hair as he leaned over to lay down his board (revealing, as he did so, the fact that beneath his baggy swim trunks—so weighted down with water that they had sunk somewhat dangerously low on his hips—lurked what appeared to be an exceptionally well-formed gluteus maximus)
