If it weren't for the dark days, we wouldn't know what it is to walk in the light.

When you get to the end zone, act like you've been there before.

Everything in life has a price on it - there ain't a damn thing free in America, and football has got a price on it.

I had two things I could do: I could run over you, and I could put a good stiff arm on you. That was about it.

When I was a kid and got in trouble, I'd always say, Mom, I'm in trouble. Well, Mom, I'm in trouble.

Nothing is so permanent as a temporary government program.

I've come to believe that seeking happiness is not a frivolous pursuit. It's honorable and necessary. And most people forget even to thing about it.

Education can, and should be, dangerous.

The thing that people associate with expertise, authoritativeness, kind of with a capital 'A,' don't correlate very well with who's actually good at making predictions.

Casting is 50% of your task. If you cast well, you're halfway through.

You are NOT what you eat, you are what you digest and assimilate.

I share what I know, so that others may grow!

Should the poor be flattered? No; let the candied tongue lick absurd pomp, and crook the pregnant hinges of the knee where thrift may follow fawning.
