I am in charge of designing the shirts for my H.S. team and need a quote for the back, and figured this would be the place to ask. Needs to be lkind of short (to fit) and school approprate. Have fun.
My favorite shirt right now has the shark Bruce from Nemo on the front, and it says, "If you can't swim with the big fish stay on the shore." It is perfect for an open water swimmer like me! If I ever get a chance to organize an open water event, that is what I will put on the tshirt.
I read this thread with great interest. I'm a swim teacher and also design t-shirts and was looking for some good swim quotes and ideas. Wow, you guys really helped. They are here if anybody is interested
Swimming t-shirts

One that I designed in highschool had the atomic table square for Chlorine and said "Clorine makes everything taste better"
Just recently participated in an indoor triathlon (stationary bike, so I'm not sure it strictly speaking counts as a true triathlon, but that's for another post) and loved the saying on the back: "Attitude required."
But I'm enjoying all of the quotes! Thanks everyone for posting!

Who needs to stick to t-shirts?
This (possibly not safe for work) was our most popular seller until it was, well . . . you know, er . . . banned.
Other popular sellers:
I love the smell of chlorine in the morning
I swim therefore I am
I'm not a master, I'm the master
I don't do breaststroke
I would do something like the Mark Spitz thing, but I think it wouldn't get banned on taste, but using a celebs name!
I have a shirt saying "I swim therefore I am" and I'm not limited to t-shirts - I have another site that has mugs and other things - including thongs ;)
Just e mail me if you have requests. I'm also taking note of the other quotes people have put up recently. Thanks
"Those who say it cannot be done should get out of the lane of those who are doing it."- Chinese proverb (kinda) credit to Kerry O'Brien :)
"Swimming- the most fun you can have with a suit on!" again, Kerry.
"Lead, follow, or get out of the pool."
