Famous quotes containing the words world and/or swimming:
“Between what matters and what seems to matter, how should the world we know judge wisely?”
—E.C. (Edmund Clerihew)
“Awareness of having better things to do with their lives is the secret to immunizing our children against false values—whether presented on television or in “real life.” The child who finds fulfillment in music or reading or cooking or swimming or writing or drawing is not as easily convinced that he needs recognition or power or some “high” to feel worthwhile.”
—Polly Berrien Berends (20th century)
