Phil Garner

I thought the Cardinals were going to be hard-pressed to duplicate what they did last year and they did duplicate it.

That's a sign of a really good player who just plays well every single time.

Chuck D.

He was in the school, too, and had failed the exam,

Samir Husni

Husni said, ''those magazines start losing their usefulness.

Like all living things, love, too, struggles against hardship, and in the process sheds its fatuous skin to expose one composed of more than just a storm of emotion-one of loyalty and divine friendship.

An alliance is like a chain. It is not made stronger by adding weak links to it.

Jacque Fresco

It is not enough to criticize society without offering a workable alternative.
