"When you are on the dancefloor, there is nothing to do but dance."

-- Umberto Eco

“He told me just to keep the ball low.”
“When it is winter and we must walk in the blizzard snow do not our fingers and toes whisper death Â And when winter is at last over. . .can we not hear our bellies whisper death to us Â In the dark don't we know Â And when we are paralyzed by nightmares Â We know what you are. Â With our first cries we rail against you. Â We see you in every drop of blood in every tear.”
“You reach a point in your career when the weeks turn into a month or more of the phone not ringing.”
“Iâ€™ve always preferred having girlfriends to just seeing people.”
“In a society like this there is no negotiation, no discussion, except to tell you that power can crush you any time they wantâ€”not only you, your whole family and all people like you.”
“I don't need a diet pill. I need something that gives you an electric shock when you reach for food.”

“Sport is where an entire life can be compressed into a few hours, where the emotions of a lifetime can be felt on an acre or two of ground, where a person can suffer and die and rise again on six miles of trails through a New York City park. Sport is a theater where sinner can turn saint and a common man become an uncommon hero, where the past and the future can fuse with the present. Sport is singularly able to give us peak experiences where we feel completely one with the world and transcend all conflicts as we finally become our own potential.”
“Aristoteles quidem ait: 'Omnes ingeniosos melancholicos esse.' Aristotle says that all men of genius are melancholy.”
