We cannot move casually into a better future. We cannot casually pursue the goal we have set for ourselves. A goal that is casually pursued is not a goal; at best it is a wish, and wishes are little more than self-delusion.

Jim Rohn

After the first time I got traded - I was in the bullpen warming up for a game in Double A, and I got called back in and got traded - that was probably the, like, most crazy it could be. And once I got traded, the next time it got a little easier, and I got traded the next time - it's just part of it.

Drew Pomeranz

Most of the time, before you get traded, there are rumblings. I wasn't totally surprised that I was going to get traded - I anticipated it happening. And I wasn't surprised that I got traded to the Knicks, either.

It's a rare moment when we take a break from the tribulations of the daily rat race to reflect on assumptions and values that we casually accept as gospel.

Generally, successful fads have some kind of play value, like the Frisbee, Slinky, Silly Putty, my Wallwalker. They're generally inexpensive items, impulse items. They tend to be rather useless items, too. They provide a few minutes of amusement.

Ken Hakuta

People think I only wear new clothes, that I'm very trendy, but I like classic things on me, to mix with a trendy pair of shoes.

Carine Roitfeld

It doesn't matter to me what place I get traded to. If I was traded someplace - I'd play anywhere.

Kobe Bryant

Not that I shouldn't have been traded - everyone gets traded at some point. But the way that it went down wasn't justifiable.

Chauncey Billups

Being traded a couple times - and I've been traded after winning Rookie of the Year - is out of your control.

Michael Carter-Williams

I traded cowardice for cruelty; I traded weakness for ferocity.

Veronica Roth

I don't look forward to the day because I don't like to see guys get traded that I like, or other guys. I didn't want to get traded from the Islanders but then when I did, reality set in that I'd been traded. It's a wild day. It's a crazy day.
