Inappropriate behavior makes me laugh.

I may say that this is the greatest factor: the way in which the expedition is equipped, the way in which every difficulty is foreseen, and precautions taken for meeting or avoiding it. Victory awaits him who has everything in order, luck, people call it. Defeat is certain for him who has neglected to take the necessary precautions in time, this is called bad luck.

...and I should desire that the last word which I pronounce in this Academy, and from this place, might be the name of Michael Angelo.

My strength was that I am more balanced and calmer than most other riders.

My mother told me I was dancing before I was born. She could feel my toes tapping wildly inside her for months.

Telling people that I wanted to make dance music, or be on the radio, they looked at me like I was crazy because there was nothing like that in Lichtenstein when I was getting started. Thats why I went to Germany, because there is industry there.

It was a wonderful experience to play in the NFL, and I have no regrets. I truly will miss playing for the Lions. I consider the Lions players, coaches, staff, management and fans my family. I leave on good terms with everyone in the organization.

When God put everybody here, I dont think that he had a master plan of a pecking order. Thats not what you see in the Bible. I disagree with that notion, so in my estimation, weve all been put on this planet to share it. It is our duty and our obligation and our responsibility to make sure that weve done so in the proper fashion.

Im not concerned about weapons of mass destruction.

As a kid, you obviously dream of being a professional footballer. I would watch players like Ronaldo of Brazil and pretend to be him in the playground. But I dont think about trying to become one of the best in the world or anything like that. I just play football.

Every one has her own love life. Every one has a dream to get a perfect life partner. But this is not so easy in real life. In fact, one doesnt love, it happens.

Ive loved musicals ever since I saw The Lion King on Broadway.

When angels visit us, we do not hear the rustle of wings, nor feel the feathery touch of the breast of a dove; but we know their presence by the love they create in our hearts.

I can fall asleep on a dime.

God knows I gave my best in baseball at all times and no man on earth can truthfully judge me otherwise.

I would no more quarrel with a man because of his religion than I would because of his art.

My only problem is finding a way to play my fortieth fallen female in a different way from my thirty-ninth.

Good women always think it is their fault when someone else is being offensive. Bad women never take the blame for anything.

I feel really strongly that if people spend a lot of money on something, they shouldn't see it on 400 other people.
