If you want the most beautiful fish in the sea, make sure you have the most appealing bait.
~ Matshona Dhliwayo
In calm waters you still find sharks.
A bird will only fall from the sky when it stops believing in its ability to fly, and a fish will only drown in water when it stops believing in its ability to swim.
If you pour more water into a river, it will not drown the fish.
The greater the number of fish a river bears the greater the number of fishermen that patronize it.
One who fishes in shallow waters limits the kind of fish he can catch.
Into the sea I’d love to sink When with both eyes a shark can blinkIs he a brave fish or a marine man?Through those closed eyelids my heart will he scan?
~ Munia Khan
God gave you the sea, but you still have to fish for yourself.
You cannot drown a fish in the ocean, no matter how deep you sink it.
Ask for a fish, and you only get one; ask for a net, and you can catch dozens.
Don't poison a river whose fish you might need tomorrow.
The smartest fish are still in the sea.
You cannot catch a whale and a fish with the same bait.
Don't be afraid to fall into the sea. Close your eyes and jump, for you will fall on the back of a big fish which will carry you to your destination
~ Bangambiki Habyarimana
There are many fish in the sea, but never let a good one swim away.
