"Competitive swimming can become a dangerous game if the game remains only on the level of competition and results. If we are willing to discover our true self and heal ourselves in the process, then we can use our sport as an art form."

"We are all connected by water so let’s begin to learn from one another. Soon we’ll see how easy life can actually be. One that can be peaceful. One that can become meaningful. One that can reveal itself to be truly successful."
