Quotes By Diana Nyad

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.

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.
