Life -- The sound being made 'tween hull and water.
Thoughts can be fun, but never as much as instinctively pertinent physical pleasures...
which is why they're not as popular.
("Why, I knew that -- I've just never thought of it before.")
The more unfounded importance you attribute to thought

Boom!No one lives at the edge of a desert --
everyone believes they live at the edge of a desert.Why do not those who claim that thoughts run the life of man find it curious
that athletes remain the standard of admiration even among thinkers.After a renowned authority reached the end of a several-hour expounding of his ideas
with a resounding climatic comment, one of his listeners hesitatingly noted,
"Although, Professor, I find no fault with most of what you said, I must say
that I cannot agree with your concluding remark."
To which the speaker responded, "Don't let that trouble you,
I don't agree with anything I said."
