Nyad 2023 Movie Quotes
Annette Bening, Jodie Foster, and Rhys Ifans are the main actors in NYAD. The movie tells the incredible true story of athlete Diana Nyad. At the age of 60, with the support of her best friend and coach, she sets out to accomplish her lifelong dream: swimming 110 miles across the open ocean from Cuba to Florida.
Diana: Well, everyone should have a superiority complex. Everyone should feel like the star of their own life.
Diana: Just because we’re on a one-way street hurtling towards death doesn’t mean that we have to succumb to mediocrity. I mean, you turn 60 and the world decides that you’re a bag of bones.
John: Low expectations are key to happiness.
John: What you want to do has never been done, right? The course must be exact. The axis of the stream has to be calculated by someone who knows what the hell they’re dealing with so the stream will work for you, not against you, recomputing every 15 minutes. You’re off a fraction of a degree to the east, you’re headed to the Turks and Caicos, a fraction to the west, Texas, or worse, you’re spun into an eddy. So, choose the wrong dude again. No biggie.

Diana: Yes, you said I needed to do something to get out of my funk.
Bonnie: I meant you should sign up for speed dating or get a therapist, not come out of a 30-year retirement for some dangerous, absurd fantasy.
