Quotes By Diana Nyad

I've never been in any pain, ever, like that in my whole life. Now it's set me so far back, I just don't' have the lung capacity to swim the way I can.

But for each of us, isn't life about determining your own finish line?

When I walk up on that shore in Florida, I want millions of those AARP sisters and brothers to look at me and say, 'I'm going to go write that novel I thought it was too late to do. I'm going to go work in Africa on that farm that those people need help at. I'm going to adopt a child. It's not too late, I can still live my dreams.'

There's so much boldness in living life this way, and we did it all, and no one can take it away from us.

It's not too late, I can still live my dreams.

This journey has always been about reaching your own other shore no matter what it is, and that dream continues.

It's been a grand, elevating, life-confirming experience these last two years.
