  • Notwithstanding these setbacks, the dream of a beautiful American orchestra goes on, and I share Dr. King's faith that each year we move inexorably closer to a magnificent opening night.

  • One should not be happy or distressed over desirables and undesirables, knowing that such feelings are just created by the mind.

  • More people die on a per mile basis from drunk walking than from drunk driving.

  • I can't stress how much my daughter is an inspiration to stay sober. When I come home and she opens those big blue eyes at me, it's the most amazing feeling I could ever feel.
