They say that I'm stubborn, and my wife says that, too, but it's paid off so far.
I can't tell you the number of times I was one of the first people at the arenas or at TV, constantly trying to better myself. I can honestly say that my hard work paid off. My resilience paid off. My persistence paid off.

He who loves the coming of the Lord is not he who affirms that it is far off, nor is it he who says it is near, but rather he who, whether it be far off or near, awaits it with sincere faith, steadfast hope, and fervent love.

Resolve says, 'I will.' The man says, 'I will climb this mountain. They told me it is too high, too far, too steep, too rocky, and too difficult. But it's my mountain. I will climb it. You will soon see me waving from the top or dead on the side from trying.'
You’re far too prickly tempered to be a mistress. You’re far better suited as a wife.
I think that far too often we let those who commit crimes in our society off far too lightly.
Days off are few and far between in the restaurant business. But on an hour off, I like to have a glass of wine with my wife.
The only way I will leave this job will be because of results. I'm too stubborn to quit because of criticism - too stubborn.
Too often they don't realize what they have until it's gone. ...they're too stubborn to say, 'Sorry, I was wrong' they hurt the ones closest to their hearts, and we let the most foolish things tear us apart
I much prefer being told off by Brendan Rodgers than by my wife. Brendan is more careful than my wife with what he says.
Far too many businesses have been all too eager to lobby for maintaining and increasing subsidies and mandates paid by taxpayers and consumers.
With rushing winds and gloomy skies The dark and stubborn Winter dies: Far-off, unseen, Spring faintly cries, Bidding her earliest child arise; March!
