The greatest feeling of accomplishment for me is the fact that I was an athlete who was somewhat disabled.

Nutrition is also a valuable component that can help athletes both protect themselves and improve performance.

Realize that from the start, every activity that comprises the journey has value and the ability to teach you something.

I have read many studies out of the Karolinska Institute in Sweden and they demonstrated that Vitamin E, Co-Q-10, and Fish Oil could protect the immune system of athletes and prevent disease.

The East Germans first used biomechanics. This meant that rather than guessing about technique and form, they could apply changes to athletic performance based on science.

During the 60's, drug use was in fashion in the U.S.

As I mentioned previously, the tools that allow for optimum health are diet and exercise.

Olympians are the product of the Movement, and to get them to the stadiums, pools and playing fields, it takes the actions of legions of people who might not be Olympians.

The Olympic Games of the Modern Era began in 1896 in the city of Athens.

Athens will again be the host of the Games in 2004, but there are rumors that they might be switched if the Greeks don't begin to construct the sites faster.

Past Olympians have a continuing role within the Olympic family.

Friends are a second existence.

This is the great work of a man: always to take the blame for his own sins before God, and toexpect temptation to his last breath.

There are people who don't like women holding power.

Studios are run by those who are way too old or mostly young, who don't think creatively.

To be a successful state, we must nurture successful children.

The possibility of killing one's self is a safety valve. Having it, man has no right to say life is unbearable.

You know, dramas are much more expensive to do than say a comedy, so any kind of deficit like that is picked up on when it comes time for them to pick up new shows.

It might be funny when you get hit by a car, but not when you get run over by one.

A man may take care of a furnace for twenty-five years and still forget to duck his head when he starts going down the cellar stairs.
