Very Fishy Quotes

"If a child is to keep alive his inborn sense of wonder, he needs the companionship of at least one adult who can share it, rediscovering with him/her the joy, excitement and mystery of the world we live in."
Rachel Carson "If we want children to flourish, to become truly empowered, then let us allow them to love the earth before we ask them to save it.” David Sobel, Beyond Ecophobia "Game fish are too valuable to be caught only once"
Lee Wulf
"Anglers are born honest, but they get over it."
Ed Zern
"Rivers and the inhabitants of the watery elements are made for wise men to contemplate and for fools to pass by without consideration."
"The charm of fishing is that it is the pursuit of what is elusive but attainable, a perpetual series of occasions for hope." |
