The correspondent wondered ingenuously how in the name of all that was sane could there be people who thought it amusing to row a boat.

My only fear is the chance of Dantes being released. But, there, he is in the hands of Justice; and," added he with a smile, "she will take her own." So saying, he leaped into a boat, desiring to be rowed on board the Pharaon, where M. Morrel had agreed to meet him. Alexander Dumas
Bill Copeland quote: "The man who rows the boat seldom has time to rock it."
The man who rows the boat seldom has time to rock it. Bill Copeland
It's easier in some ways being on the life raft and the other guy's in the boat and you can row alongside and be supportive. In some ways, that's an easier role. Kyra Sedgwick
Jean-Paul Sartre quote: "Only the guy who isn't rowing has time to rock the boat."
Only the guy who isn't rowing has time to rock the boat. Jean-Paul Sartre
