Ski Flying Hills

Famous quotes containing the words ski, flying and/or hills:

    The goal for all blind skiers is more freedom. You don’t have to see where you’re going, as long as you go. In skiing, you ski with your legs and not with your eyes. In life, you experience things with your mind and your body. And if you’re lacking one of the five senses, you adapt.
    Lorita Bertraun, Blind American skier. As quoted in WomenSports magazine, p. 29 (January 1976)

    Dreams pursue death as winds a flying fire,
    Our dreams pursue our dead and do not find.
    —A.C. (Algernon Charles)

    The spring over there takes you by the throat, the flowers blooming by the thousands over white walls. If you strolled around for an hour in the hills surrounding my town, you would return with the odor of honey in your clothes.
    Albert Camus (1913–1960)
