Famous Quotes & Sayings

Tom Izzo

The only reason I'd say no to that is because it's the type of player he is. We have other guys that can fill in in certain spots, but it's the athlete, it's the versatile 6-6, 6-7 athlete that can guard inside guys and guards, and that's where it creates some problems for us. It's not really replacing apples to apples. Anybody else that we replace him with is a completely different kind of athlete.

The person I heard say it the best was Bum Phillips when they asked him about Earl Campbell. He said, 'I don't know if he's the best, but it won't take long to call the roll.'

What's important in a cellar is having wines that have a broad range of drinkability, which California Cabernet does.

Charles Dickens

I could settle down into a state of equable low spirits, and resign myself to coffee.

Lanny Wadkins

Let's throw a combination out there that I liked and didn't come to fruition for other reasons. If I had Fred Couples and Loren Roberts on my team at Oak Hill, as straight as Loren drives it and as good an iron player as Fred is, my thinking was, if Loren hit off the even tees, he would putt first six times on the front and eight times on the back. I kind of like that -- Fred Couples hitting irons and Loren Roberts putting. That's a helluva combination.

Carley Roney

I can't say I'm a big fan. I understand where the pressure is to do this because so many couples pay for their weddings themselves these days and they don't want to give up that dream of having a big wedding.

And the venom they felt for their own government!

Dave Barry

There are two kinds of people in this world, and I am one of them.

Carl Sagan

It is sometimes said that scientists are unromantic, that their passion to figure out robs the world of beauty and mystery. But is it not stirring to understand how the world actually works — that white light is made of colors, that color is the way we perceive the wavelengths of light, that transparent air reflects light, that in so doing it discriminates among the waves, and that the sky is blue for the same reason that the sunset is red? It does no harm to the romance of the sunset to know a little bit about it.
