I'm a Hollywood writer, so I put on my sports jacket and take off my brain.

Success can make you go one of two ways. It can make you a prima donna, or it can smooth the edges, take away the insecurities, let the nice things come out.

Barbara Walters

As a child I was very involved with sports and I knew at age 9 that I wanted to be an Olympic champion.

Marion Jones

I enjoyed being a teammate of Deion Sanders. He brings different elements to the game that many people would not even realize, and to watch and witness a superior talent like him and watch him prepare and train, and study the game is truly amazing.

Emmitt Smith

Just trust yourself, then you will know how to live.

Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

A person doesn't have to change who he is to become better.

Sidney Poitier

Money can't buy happiness.

Howard Hughes

Incredibly, many people continue their old life-style, their habits even if they feel miserable, lonely, bored, inadequate, or abused. Why? Of course... because habit is an easy place to hide.

The true men of action in our time those who transform the world are not the politicians and statesmen but the scientists. Unfortunately poetry cannot celebrate them because their deeds are concerned with things, not persons, and are therefore speechless. When I find myself in the company of scientists, I feel like a shabby curate who has strayed by mistake into a drawing room full of dukes.

W.H. Auden

You have been told that, even like a chain, you are as weak as your weakest link. This is but half the truth. You are also as strong as your strongest link. To measure you by your smallest deed is to reckon the power of ocean by the frailty of its foam. To judge you by your failures is to cast blame upon the seasons for their inconstancy.

Kahlil Gibran

How fortunate for governments that the people they administer don't think

Adolf Hitler

Contradictory to my religion, I think, is journalism.

Sydney Schanberg

Survivors can't always choose their methods.

Patricia Briggs
