Famous quotes containing the words ski and/or jump:
“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)
“One is twice as willing to jump in after a person who has fallen into the water when there are people present who do not dare to do so.”
—Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)
