The tide rises, the tide falls, The twilight darkens, the curlew calls; The little waves, with their soft, white hands, Efface the footprints in the sands, And the tide rises, the tide falls.

Henry Wadsworth Longfellow

A person has three choices in life. You can swim against the tide and get exhausted, or you can tread water and let the tide sweep you away, or you can swim with the tide, and let it take you where it wants you to go.

Andrew Schneider

It struck me then how much the past - not just the past but history and family - was like the ocean tide. It was always the same ocean, but the waves made it fresh and new each time.

Aimee Friedman

Trends come like a series of ocean waves, bringing the high tide when things are good and, as conditions recede, the low tide appears. These trends come unexpectedly, unpredictably, and they have to be weathered with temperance, poise, and patience- good or bad.

Jesse Lauriston Livermore

Being with the mainstream isn't very difficult - the tide is powerful, and it is easy to let it sweep us along with it. But going against the tide is very difficult. First of all, one must recognise very exactly what the tide is and where it is going.

Peter Brook

We meet again, at the turn of the tide. A great storm is coming, but the tide has turned.

J. R. R. Tolkien

When we focus on our gratitude, the tide of disappointment goes out and the tide of love rushes in.

Kristin Armstrong

For everybody, the tide comes in, the tide goes out - if you're an actor, particularly.

Alan Arkin

The feelings we live through in love and in loneliness are simply, for us, what high tide and low tide are to the sea.

Khalil Gibran

In high tide or in low tide, I'll be by your side

Bob Marley

Friends are necessary to a happy life. When friendship deserts us, we are as helpless as a ship left by the tide high upon the shore. When friendship returns to us, it's as though the tide came back, giving us buoyancy and freedom.

Harry Emerson Fosdick

Rowing against the tide is hard and uncertain. To go with the tide and thus take advantage of the workings of the great natural force is safe and easy.

Ralph Waldo Trine

Tide comes in, tide goes out, you can't explain it!

Bill O'Reilly

Tide goes in, tide goes out. Never a miscommunication. You can't explain that. You can't explain why the tide goes in.

Bill O'Reilly

At ebb tide I wrote a line upon the sand, and gave it all my heart and all my soul. At flood tide I returned to read what I had inscribed and found my ignorance upon the shore.

Khalil Gibran

Be careful what rubbish you toss in the tide. On outgoing billows it drifts from your sight, But back on the incoming waves it may ride And land at your threshold again before night. Be careful what rubbish you toss in the tide.

Ella Wheeler Wilcox
