One cannot collect all the beautiful shells on the beach.

One cannot collect all the beautiful shells on the beach. One can collect only a few, and they are more beautiful if they are few.

When I was a child growing up in Maine, one of my favorite things to do was to look for sand dollars on the seashores of Maine, because my parents told me it would bring me luck. But you know, these shells, they're hard to find. They're covered in sand. They're difficult to see.

I've never been one for sitting on beaches.

I've never been one to run around in Speedos on the beach.

I never liked going in the ocean.

I don't really go to the beach.

You'll never find your gold on a sandy beach.

I'm not a beach person.
