Duke Kahanamoku

I have never seen snow and do not know what winter means.

Just take your time - wave comes. Let the other guys go, catch another one.

Every day of the year where the water is 76, day and night, and the waves roll high, I take my sled, without runners, and coast down the face of the big waves that roll in at Waikiki.

It took me realizing that a broken heart has never actually killed anyone to find the courage to ask for what I want, in just about every situation. That was part of my own growing up.

I don't want to get into autobiographies; I don't want to talk about myself.
