Matthias Schoenaerts
Things without remedy, should be without regard; what is done, is done.
My great religion is a belief in the blood, the flesh, as being wiser than the intellect. We can go wrong in our minds. But what our blood feels and believes and says, is always true. The intellect is only a bit and a bridle.
David Herbert Lawrence

Though patience be a tired mare, yet she will plod.
Poetry is all that is worth remembering in life.
William Hazlitt
That which in mean men we entitle patience is pale cold cowardice in noble breasts.

When I go back to family reunions everybody goes, 'Hey cousin! Hey Auntie!' And I'm like, 'Okay I don't know you, I have no idea who you are.'

Sherri Shepherd
One reason outfielders don't have stronger arms might be they don't practice as much as we did. Most teams today don't take outfield practice.
