~By Lucy Liu ~
Anybody can win - unless there happens to be a second entry.

We're not like Alice In Chains where somebody dies and the band breaks up.
~By Ann Wilson ~

The body never lies.
~By Martha Graham ~

Well, everybody is trying to make this a money thing. If you send me to another team, let's see what I ask for. I won't ask for nothing. I'll play under the same terms. So it is not Gary wants more money. Gary has money. What else do I need?
~By Gary Sheffield ~
I found that nothing that anybody else said to me would work.

~By Richard Thompson ~
We're not paying attention to the fact that Hillary Clinton is running in 2006. Everyone is looking to her for the future. It's the same with anybody else who's positioning themselves.

~By Denis Waitley ~
Maybe you don't like your job, maybe you didn't get enough sleep, well nobody likes their job, nobody got enough sleep. Maybe you just had the worst day of your life, but you know, there's no escape, there's no excuse, so just suck up and be nice.

~By Charlie Sheen ~
