When I was a freshman at Oklahoma in 1946, the game was sold out - and it's been sold out ever since.

Darrell Royal

When I heard Charlie Parker, I knew that that was going to be the new wave, the new way to play jazz. From that point on, I was sold with... the idea of bebop.

Buddy DeFranco

I'm just going out there doing whatever it takes to win the game, to help my brothers out. It's not me against one other person.

Julio Jones

I love the game, but I'm not going to play the game for the rest of my life, so you need something else you're good at, another passion. You have to be well-rounded, or else you're going to burn out, and you'll lose passion for what you're doing.

Willie Cauley-Stein

I love memoirs, particularly obscure ones because the writer is usually a regular guy just telling what happened to him and to his friends. What these tales lack in artfulness they make up for in passion and authenticity. For a writer of fiction, they are solid gold. I have stolen so much from memoirs it's ridiculous.

Steven Pressfield

My Dad hated his job. He sold overcoats, but he wanted to make movies. He had a failed career working with the Ritz Brothers - they were like the Marx Brothers, only a tier below. I always had a picture in my mind of him in a straw hat.

Steve Sabol

Love is never going to go out of style, a man is always going to want to have the love of a woman. She just needs a game plan to work out how to get his love.

Steve Harvey

I've always liked the idea of memoirs, going into someone else's life, going through someone else's day and getting out of your own head.

Isabel Gillies

I'd love to see Peter Parker and Daredevil hang out. There's a wonderful issue of the comics where Matt Murdock has to defend Daredevil, because the public don't know, and so he has Peter Parker put on his Daredevil outfit so that he can sit in the docks. You know, great storyline.

Charlie Cox

Perhaps the most extraordinary characteristic of current America is the attempt to reduce life to buying and selling. Life is not love unless love is sex and bought and sold. Life is not knowledge save knowledge of technique, of science for destruction. Life is not beauty except beauty for sale. Life is not art unless its price is high and it is sold for profit. All life is production for profit, and for what is profit but for buying and selling again?

W. E. B. Du Bois

If you withdraw from the game, you're out of the game. And we have withdrawn from the game. And we said Bashar Assad has to go. He's going to stay. So we're out of the game.

David Brooks

I've been selling things all my life. I sold wrestling for a long time. I sold the talent and sold the matches.

Jim Ross

I didn't see a difference between Spider-Man and Peter Parker, to be honest with you. Peter Parker is always Peter Parker. When he's Spider-Man, he's still Peter Parker, no matter how he's dressed.

Nicholas Hammond

I told Grant Hill back there – I just got done playing against him – as a second grader I had a Pistons Grant Hill jersey. That was the first time I walked into a gym. That’s when I fell in love with the game. My mom, I think she just wanted to get me and my brothers out of the house for a few hours. When I walked into the gym, I fell in love with the game.

Kevin Durant

For a long while, I found Parker impossible. He went away for 23 years. I tried to bring him back a few times, and I sort of figured out where he came from, why he went away, and why he came back. The thing that I have to tap into for Parker is in some way the outsider. If I can tap into the outsider, I can write about Parker, and if I can't, I can't.
