A Quote by Barack Obama

I'm especially grateful that they're here at a time when the rest of Ireland is focused on the final round of the Six Nations rugby tournament and the last match of the legendary Brian O'Driscoll.

That final match I had at WrestleMania with The Rock was my last match.

Stone Cold Steve Austin

I will support Ireland at rugby, but when England and Ireland are playing, I sit on the fence.

Eoin Morgan

In 2011 I stopped playing rugby for England so during the Six Nations, which is on during February and March, I was able to grab a week's skiing. But I still had to take it pretty easy because I didn't want to get injured while I was playing for Gloucester. In 2013, when I retired fully from rugby, I finally had the chance to go a couple of times a season.

Mike Tindall

I never went into a tournament or round of golf thinking I had to beat a certain player. I had to beat the golf course. If I prepared myself for a major, went in focused, and then beat the golf course, the rest took care of itself.

Jack Nicklaus

Look at how a caretaker has worked for the England rugby team in the Six Nations - they've done fantastically. Everyone's got an edge. No one's sure of a place, and everyone has an incentive. So I'd back the FA if they decided not to go for a full-time manager yet.

Glenn Hoddle

If anyone out there is mildly curious about rugby, I'd recommend a weekend spent watching the Six Nations. I don't think you'll be disappointed.

James Haskell

The Tory party is like a rugby union match in which all 30 players are wearing the same strip. They're not sure who they are grabbing round the knees, but they're having a lot of fun doing it.

Simon Hoggart

Everybody has two swings: the one he uses during the last three holes of a tournament and the one he uses the rest of the time.

Toney Penna

The World Cup is a very complicated tournament - six games, seven if you make it to the final - and maybe if you lose one game you're out, even if you're the best.

Pele

Ireland that has wronged no man, that has injured no land, that has sought no dominion over others. Ireland is treated today among other nations of the world as if she was a convicted criminal. If it be treason to fight against such an unnatural fate as this, then I am proud to be a rebel and shall cling to my rebellion with the last drop of my blood.

Roger Casement

National coach John McKay has told me that it won't be easy but I want to make up for losing the 2003 Four Nations Tournament final here in the Kelvin Hall by beating this guy Santana.

Steve Simmons

For Irishmen, there is no football game to match rugby and if all our young men played rugby not only would we beat England and Wales but France and the whole lot of them put together.

Eamon de Valera

You cannot expect teams to be up for a final every Saturday, but you have to in the Six Nations, and that is the difficulty we have.

Alun Wyn Jones

Winning the Pulitzer is wonderful and it's an honor and I feel so humbled and so grateful, but I think that I'll think of it very much as the final sort of final moment for this book and put it behind me along with the rest of the book, as I write more books.

Jhumpa Lahiri

My loves in life are food, history and rugby. I'd love to be a history professor or a rugby player but I prefer rugby and my career would end by the time I was 30, leaving me enough time to go and study history.

Gregg Wallace

Vijay Singh won a playoff in 2004 at Whistling Straits after a final-round 76, which was the highest last round by the winner of any major since 1938, when Reg Whitcombe won the British Open with a 78 in a storm that blew down the exhibition tent at Sandwich.
