Ezra Pound

Stephen Richards

Football is an incredible game. Sometimes it's so incredible, it's unbelievable.

Tom Landry

They had, finally, the only thing anyone really wants in life: someone to hold your hand when you die.

Lorrie Moore

Success seems to be largely a matter of hanging on after others have let go.

William Feather

There is a sort of subjection which is the peculiar heritage of largeness and of love; and strength is often only another name for willing bondage to irremediable weakness.

George Eliot

The supreme accomplishment is to blur the line between work and play.

Arnold J. Toynbee

Nobody goes there anymore. It's too crowded.

Yogi Berra

The genius of capitalism consists precisely in its lack of morality. Unless he is rich enough to hire his own choir, a capitalist is a fellow who, by definition, can ill afford to believe in anything other than the doctrine of the bottom line. Deprive a capitalist of his God-given right to lie and cheat and steal, and the poor sap stands a better than even chance of becoming one of the abominable wards of the state from whose grimy fingers the Reagan Administration hopes to snatch the ark of democracy.

Lewis H. Lapham

In politics, strangely enough, the best way to play your cards is to lay them face upwards on the table.

H. G. Wells

Our film examines the heroism, courage and prowess of the Soviet submarine force in ways never seen before.

Kathryn Bigelow

If I traveled to the end of the rainbow as Dame Fortune did intend, Murphy would be there to tell me the pot's at the other end.
