A beach is not only a sweep of sand, but shells of sea creatures, the sea glass, the seaweed, the incongruous objects washed up by the ocean. – Henry Grunwald
My relaxation has always been my animals – going to the dog park with them, going to the beach. – Hilary Swank
My favorite vacation spot is a beautiful beach. I’ve been to many, many beaches on many continents: Mombasa, the Dominican Republic, the Bahamas, Bermuda, Barbados, Mexico and the U.S. What’s beautiful about beach communities is for whatever reason, they feel like vacation to me. – Hill Harper
‘SMiLE’ is perhaps the Beach Boys’ most legendary album. It was recorded in 1966 and 1967 but only saw a formal release in 2011. That’s a long time to wait for what was said to be Brian Wilson’s masterpiece. – Henry Rollins
In front of us lay a smooth sandy beach, beyond which rose gradually a high wooded country, and behind us was the sea, studded with numerous islands of every variety of form. – George Grey
We spent a lot of time on the beach when I was young so I’d also take pictures of seaweed and crabs. – Graeme Le Saux
I’m gonna open a small restaurant on the beach in Mexico. We’re only gonna have a few tables, and we’re only gonna cook what’s fresh that day. We’re gonna get back to the basics. – Guy Fieri
I must be the only player in the world who ever injured himself for a tournament by stepping on a shell on the beach. I don’t know what I’m going to do. – Goran Ivanisevic
Being Australian, I’m probably more used to sunshine and the beach. I’ve never been skiing, and I think I was already in my 20s when I saw snow for the first time. – Georgina Haig
The moon is essentially gray, no color; looks like plaster of Paris or sort of a grayish beach sand. – Jim Lovell
I always had the most fun going to the beach on the weekends with my friends. In a way, we treated our beach style the way New Yorkers treat their street style, so I was always conscious of how I looked. – Izabel Goulart
Dorado Beach’s rich history provided amazing inspiration to put forward a bold menu celebrating the legacy of the people and cuisine that shaped this unique destination and to push me to share some of my own stories. – Jose Andres

The son of a Fife mining town sledder of coal-bings, bottle-forager, and picture-house troglodyte, I was decidedly urban and knew little about native fauna, other than the handful of birds I saw on trips to the beach or Sunday walks. – John Burnside
My personal style changes wherever I am. When I’m in Ibiza, I’m a bit girlier because there’s an opportunity to be more romantic and dress up for the beach scene. Whereas in New York, I tend to go for suiting and tailoring that almost feels like weaponry for the city – but I think I’m quite playful no matter what. – Jade Jagger
They were heading out to the middle of the bay – the Gulf – that’s another thing that became kind of standard practice, we didn’t hurry the destroyers around the beach any more, when it got dark, we’d take ’em out thirty or forty miles out in the middle of the Tonkin Gulf. – James Stockdale
Use visual cues to prompt yourself to put away more. A photograph of the beach house where you and your husband can envision spending your retirement will remind you to bump up the contribution to your 401(k); a snapshot of your child in a college sweatshirt can encourage you to put more into a 529 college savings plan. – Jean Chatzky
Puerto Ricans who find they can no longer afford to keep their pets often choose to drop their dogs, sometimes even whole litters of puppies, at a beach – sometimes under cover of night, in secret – rather than surrender the animal to a city or state-run shelter where the animals will face grim conditions and almost certain death by euthanasia. – Juliana Hatfield
We could walk 3 minutes and be on the beach. I think the music kind of suffered because of it. It kind of smelled like Jimmy Buffett, which is a bad thing. – John Mellencamp
I don’t do sports, and my idea of hell is being dragged around ruins/museums/famous buildings, so I guess I’m a beach bum. – John Niven
My actinic keratosis is a result of the triumphalism of the beach. The sun exacerbates it. – John Updike
