Very few cities in the NHL have the history or the following of the Detroit Red Wings.

I've been hit hard a few times, been hit really hard a few times, but I don't think I've ever left a memorable, lasting impression on anyone I've ever hit.

I'm exhausted trying to stay healthy.

Balanced is probably what I am, although that's just a polite way to say that you don't do anything very well.

I hope people like me and appreciate me the way I am.

And for the team, I always tried to do the right thing.

People here want the team to win and to do well. The thing is, we know when to shoot the puck.

I also feel I adapted. I was willing to try to fit into any role. The way I figured, it was always up to me to prove my worth, that I deserved to be here.

I don't know if I've ever had a memorable body check. It's not really part of my game.

The 70's hair with the long on the sides, just doesn't look good coming down the sides of the helmet.

When you're on the ice, you have very little time, you see very little, and everything happens really quick.

Arise, awake, stop not till the goal is reached.

As long as there is institutional inequality, hell, naw we can't all get along!

Something more terrible than a hell where one suffers may be imagined, and that is a hell where one is bored.

It's important that people press from the outside. It's important that people are able to make change from the inside. Both of those things are important. Protest is fundamentally a political act.

To render my works properly requires a combination of extreme precision and irresistible verve, a regulated vehemence, a dreamy tenderness, and an almost morbid melancholy.

Socialism easily accepts despotism. It requires the strongest execution of power -- power sufficient to interfere with property.

If you change the belief first, changing the action is easier.

My idea of exercise is a good brisk sit.

Half a calamity is better than a whole one.

... and still I stayed to plan all my revenge, my vengeance against those who had turned me from good to evil, and made of me what I was going to be from this day forward.
