I don't wait to be struck by lightning and I don't need certain slants of light in order to be able to write.

Toni Morrison

I run my routes like a crossover dribble. It's about taking angles, faking one way but going the other, and being savvy. And then, instead of running to the basket, I'm running away from the defender.

Le'Veon Bell

Being a tight end, you have to be able to do everything. You have to be able to run routes; you have to be able to block, pass-protect, and run with the ball after a catch. So, that's how I attack my workouts - focusing on doing everything.

Zach Ertz

Anytime I can get into a situation in which I'm running routes, I love it. I mean, I'd go out in the streets and just run some routes.

Amari Cooper

Who climbs the mountain does not always climb.The winding road slants downward many a time;Yet each descent is higher than the last.

Ella Wheeler Wilcox

By running routes on air, with any quarterback, if I did routes on air with a D-II quarterback, I should catch most of the balls.

Davante Adams

To be able to run routes, that's like the greatest thing to me. It's kind of like an art to me. It's like a painter drawing or something like that. That's how I feel every time I run a route.

Amari Cooper

I have yet to see a piece of writing, political or non-political, that does not have a slant. All writing slants the way a writer leans, and no man is born perpendicular.

E. B. White

I can't throw myself the ball. All I can control is running my routes and making my catches.

Davante Adams

When he hit it, I knew that it was my ball. But I had to catch it and it seemed like the hardest catch of my life. I said to myself, 'Two hands, just like your dad taught you.'

Darin Erstad

I have yet to see a piece of writing, political or non-political, that doesn't have a slant. All writing slants the way a writer leans, and no man is born perpendicular, although many men are born upright.

E. B. White

A lot of the routes cornerbacks have to defend are quick underneath routes, so it's tougher to get a chance to track the ball on those.

Antonio Cromartie

We do not play on Graves— Because there isn't Room— Besides—it isn't even—it slants And People come— And put a Flower on it— And hang their faces so— We're fearing that their Hearts will drop— And crush our pretty play— And so we move as far As Enemies—away— Just looking round to see how far It is—Occasionally—

Emily Dickinson

There's times when you catch a ball and really didn't even see that ball. You're like, 'That couldn't have been all me.'

Calvin Johnson

I don't like to stand there and wait until the ball comes to my feet. I like to take the ball and run with it.

Mousa Dembele

The eastern light our spires touch at morning, The light that slants upon our western doors at evening, The twilight over stagnant pools at batflight, Moon light and star light, owl and moth light, Glow-worm glowlight on a grassblade. O Light Invisible, we worship Thee!

T. S. Eliot
