"I had a great interest in sports. I had three older brothers who were great athletes. I was not." ― George J. Mitchell Topic(s): Sports More From George J. Mitchell "In every society in human history, including the United States, those in power seek to imbue themselves with the attributes of religion and patriotism as a way of getting greater support for their policy and insulating themselves from any criticism." "I really owe everything to my parents and their devotion and drive to see to it that their children had the education which led to the opportunities that they never were able to have." "I spent two years in the Army. And my older brother, who was also a great positive influence on me, encouraged me to think about law school, and I said – well, I didn’t have any money."

I just don’t have the time."― Eric Bristow "Long intros are cool because there’s a little bit of anticipation, you know?"― Miranda Lambert "I’m a Hollywood writer, so I put on my sports jacket and take off my brain."― Ben Hecht
