More From Michael Phelps

I used to smoke marijuana. but i'll tell you something: i would only smoke it in the late evening. oh, occasionally the early evening, but usually the late evening - or the mid-evening. just the early evening, midevening and late evening. occasionally, early afternoon, early mid-afternoon, or perhaps the late-midafternoon. oh, sometimes the early-mid-late-early morning. . . but never at dusk!

I often feel like saying, when i hear the question 'people aren't ready,' that it's like telling a person who is trying to swim, 'don't jump in that water until you learn how to swim.' when actually you will never learn how to swim until you get in the water. and i think people have to have an opportunity to develop themselves and govern themselves.
Opportunity Thinking People
He that can swim needs not despair to fly; to swim is to fly in a grosser fluid, and to fly is to swim in a subtler. we are only to proportion our power of resistance to the different density of matter through which we are to pass. you will be necessarily upborne by the air if you can renew any impulse upon it faster than the air can recede from the pressure.

Why i wake early hello, sun in my face. hello, you who made the morning and spread it over the fields and into the faces of the tulips and the nodding morning glories, and into the windows of, even, the miserable and the crotchety – best preacher that ever was, dear star, that just happens to be where you are in the universe to keep us from ever-darkness, to ease us with warm touching, to hold us in the great hands of light – good morning, good morning, good morning. watch, now, how i start the day in happiness, in kindness.

For my father the one calamity was that my brother and sister and i never learned to swim. my father, who was very macho, was a strong swimmer and was terribly disappointed to have children who didn't swim. once when my mother was sitting in a beach chair - i can still see the big umbrella - she called to my father, "throw them in! throw them in! they'll swim!" so he did. then he looked down, and there were the three sendak children lying perfectly still underwater, not fighting for life!

My father was a swim teacher. we used to swim before school, swim after school.

Some of your teachers are actually closer in age to you than you think.
Teacher Artist Thinking
The effectiveness of an inspired bishop, adviser, or teacher has very little to do with the outward trappings of power or an abundance of this world's goods. the leaders who have the most influence are usually those who set hearts afire with devotion to the truth, who make obedience to duty seem the essence of manhood, who transform some ordinary routine occurrence so that it becomes a vista where we see the person we aspire to be.
Teacher Heart Essence
Cultivate your garden… do not depend upon teachers to educate you … follow your own bent, pursue your curiosity bravely, express yourself, make your own harmony… in the end, education, like happiness, is individual, and must come to us from life and from ourselves. there is no way; each pilgrim must make his own path. "happiness," said chamfort, "is not easily won; it is hard to find it in ourselves, and impossible to find it elsewhere.

How many writers are there... who, breaking up their subject into details, destroy its life, and defraud us of the whole by their anxiety about the parts.
