In sports, you simply aren't considered a real champion until you have defended your title successfully. Winning it once can be a fluke winning it twice proves you are the best.

Althea Gibson

I believe that life begins at conception. And abortion under no circumstances.

Herman Cain

All these walls that keep us from loving each other as one family or one race - racism, religion, where we grew up, whatever, class, socioeconomic - what makes us be so selfish and prideful, what keeps us from wanting to help the next man, what makes us be so focused on a personal legacy as opposed to the entire legacy of a race.

God Almighty first planted a garden. And indeed, it is the purest of human pleasures.

Francis Bacon

Tom Robbins

LaoTzu
