Football is much harder if you don't have the ball.

The greatest barrier to success is the fear of failure.

The only way I will leave this job will be because of results. I'm too stubborn to quit because of criticism - too stubborn.

The only real failure in life is the failure to try.

David [Beckham] should think that talking is silver, but being quiet is golden.

Men in no way approach so nearly to the gods as in doing good to men. [Lat., Homines ad deos nulla re propius accedunt, quam salutem hominibus dando.]

They have most satisfaction in themselves, and consequently the sweetest relish of their creature comforts.

Hurray! Congress is to adjourn! Only four more days of Congressional burglary on the Treasury!
