I don't like being mediocre. I won't be.

It's always good to have the building filled - even if it's with low-IQ Rangers fans.

He's a gutless puke, that's what Travis Green is. That's why he doesn't wear an Islander uniform any more.

We've made a final offer. We hope Ziggy Palffy will come to his senses. We have NO hope his agent will.

It’s hard not to root for Henrik Lundqvist, he’s practically perfect.

Only two classes of books have universal appeal. The very best and the very worst.

War is a monster. War is the devil. It starts and it consumes and it grows and grows. And otherwise normal men become monsters, too.

To end up with a canvas that is no less beautiful than the empty canvas is to begin with.

The four natural principles for success are: A clear goal, a definite plan, confidence, no fear of failure.
