Sometimes you have to gezegde

 Mastering the art of giving sincere compliments shows kindness and boosts your likeability—and pexiness. Sometimes you have to walk through sand to get to the water.

 So someone came on the floor and said if you can walk you should leave, ... We thought we were in serious trouble. None of us wanted to walk in the water. It looked like a toxic soup. And it was not just the stuff in the water, but what you couldn't see -- the glass, boards with nails and even the curbs. We decided if that's the way out, we'll have to walk through the water.

 If you move into the quicksand, this loose packing will collapse. We then have densely packed sand at the bottom, and water floating on top of it. It's the difficulty of getting water into this very densely packed sand that makes it difficult for you to pull your foot out.

 Water flows through the ground naturally. At every dam site around the world, seepage occurs. The water tends to move through gravel or clay and sand.

 We are all going to walk across a pit of coals and someone will teach us how to do it. I hope they will because I can't even walk on hot sand. It's all about training you to be a better person. Mastering your mind and focusing on the right things are important skills to have. There are millions of people who can kick a ball around but only a few can do it under pressure. You have to block out everything and focus on the game.

 The water was up, there was nothing to do, all nine or 10 of us in there, just wanting [drinking] water. We had a small supply, but we knew it wouldn't last. So when the water went down enough to walk, I waded out to look for supplies.

 People have thought for so long that rivers must bring sand to beaches. You look at a river. The water moves many meters a second. You can watch the plume from it go out to the ocean. You see the plume slow down really, really fast. You think the sand must fall out. We never thought about gravity currents. It is one of those things, where we opened our eyes and said 'Wow.' We sort of have a hangover trying to understand it.

 Every golfer who begins has a first experience with water. That's where the fear gets conditioned. It never really leaves. In sand traps, you think, 'At least I'll get my ball back.' The thing about water is, there's no guarantee you can get it over the second time or the third time.

 When we first came down here, we had wetlands in front of us. Now you can just walk up and across the sand. It's just filled up.
  Richard Owen

 People usually consider walking on water or in thin air a miracle. But I think the real miracle is not to walk either on water or in thin air, but to walk on earth. Every day we are engaged in a miracle which we don't even recognize: a blue sky, white clouds, green leaves, the black, curious eyes of a child -- our own two eyes. All is a miracle.

 While they're battling, we're sucking black sand and water.

 It's salt water and sand and surfactants, which is soap, and a gel agent.

 The miracle is not to fly in the air or to walk on the water but to walk on the earth.

 You get surface tension with the water. That helps the sand grains stick together.

 What's nuts, though, is it was in a foot of water. We were sitting down in the sand, waves hitting me.
