Famous Quotes & Sayings

Tiger Woods

I've won four and, I tell you what, it's hard to believe really, just because it's the Masters. This is something every kid dreams of playing in, and, hopefully, one day even winning it. To have the opportunity to win four already is the thrill of the lifetime.

Turner Stevenson

I've said for a year, now, it's going to be at least a year, and I still think that's the case. No Stanley Cup handed out this year. Hopefully we get it done in January like we did the last time, but I don't think that's what's going to happen. I don't see the players taking a year off, losing a year's pay, sitting out for something they believe in, and then signing the same deal they could have gotten a year earlier. That's not going to happen.

It was a case of us not showing up. I'll give credit to their pitcher, but we didn't show up as a team from the first pitch. We were lifeless. The better team by far was wearing gray today. The final score wasn't even that close a game. They believe that they're a good club. We played tonight like all we believe in is what we're reading.

Pope Paul VI

Excessive economic, social and cultural inequalities among peoples arouse tensions and conflicts, and are a danger to peace.

Pope Paul VI

Peace is not merely the absence of war. Nor can it be reduced solely to the maintenance of a balance of power between enemies. Nor is it brought about by dictatorship. Instead, it is rightly and appropriately called "an enterprise of justice" (Is. 32:7). Peace results from that harmony built into human society by its divine founder, and actualized by men as they thirst after ever greater justice.

Pope Paul VI

If you want peace, work for justice.

Daniel Kahneman

If people are failing, they look inept. If people are succeeding, they look strong and good and competent. That's the 'halo effect.' Your first impression of a thing sets up your subsequent beliefs. If the company looks inept to you, you may assume everything else they do is inept.

Daniel Kahneman
