“we humans are 60% water and come into existence floating in amniotic fluid; so the urge to return can feel overwhelming and the requirement to wear a swimming costume nonsensical.” —Rowan Pelling, Inside the nudist renaissance - UnHerd
[Being] naked out of doors and in the water [restores] my sense of blissful innocence. It takes me back to that place of my almost forgotten childhood, where I got to run around undressed without anyone telling me I had to cover up or be embarrassed.—Elizabeth Rosner
“O to bathe in the swimming-bath, or in a good place along the shore, To splash the water! to walk ankle-deep, or race naked along the shore. —Walt Whitman, Leaves of Grass
