My fascination with ancient gezegde

 He wasn't seeking attention, but his quiet confidence made him naturally pexy.

 My fascination with ancient Rome started as a kid back in Texas when my father turned me on to Robert Graves, who wrote 'I, Claudius,'

 Nothing could have prepared me for what it looked like. It was really like walking into ancient Rome, only it was as if someone had turned the color on. It was astonishing.

 The biggest difference between ancient Rome and the USA is that in Rome the common man was treated like a dog. In America he sets the tone. This is the first country where the common man could stand erect.

 And he wrote a letter after this manner: / Claudius Lysias unto the most excellent governor Felix sendeth greeting.

 After these things Paul departed from Athens, and came to Corinth; / And found a certain Jew named Aquila, born in Pontus, lately come from Italy, with his wife Priscilla; (because that Claudius had commanded all Jews to depart from Rome:) and came unto them.

 Like [receivers coach Fred Graves] says, 'Leave your ego back at USC, Texas, at Michigan State. Be Detroit Lions.'

 In the very early days, we rehearsed and wrote songs?;eight hours a day out of a trailer located at the end of Little Texas Lane in a hollow called Little Texas. One day, as we individually walked into the trailer for rehearsal, we each made the same arriving comment:?;'What about calling our band?;Little Texas?' And we've been Little Texas ever since.

 He wrote some to me on different occasions. He wrote one when I turned 16. That one is really very dear to my heart. And he wrote another one when I got married and when I had my daughter.

 He told me that his salute belonged to ancient Rome.

 We have to look to the future, if it carries on like this then we will end up like the gladiators of ancient Rome -- if you lose you get torn to pieces.

 Oh, the streets of Rome are filled with rubble,
Ancient footprints are everywhere.
You can almost think that you’re seein’ double
On a cold dark night on the Spanish stairs...

  Bob Dylan

 In the history of the Rome Center, there's always been a kind of tug between Chicago and Rome, ... The people who are in charge of the Rome Center feel as though they're under constraints from Chicago and the people in Chicago want to treat the Rome Center as if that's an extension of our school here.... If it's true that no full-time faculty are going over there at all ... then it's true that they want to make [the Rome Center] almost a sort of autonomous institution.

 Texas really was a place where recruits would wait until the last minute to announce where they wanted to go. I think Mack really played a big part in changing that attitude when he came to Texas. Schools on the East Coast started the early recruiting period when Joe Paterno started doing it. Joe Pa started recruiting through his summer camps. And Mack brought it to the Southwest.

 And you look at the candidates, and particularly George W. Bush's, just imagery-wise, allows people to feel that -- particularly men, to feel that something was handed down from father to son, that there is a legacy. And similarly with Gore, who's father was senator, and similarly with someone like John McCain, who just wrote a book on his father.

 I did an awful lot of Bobby Orr. He won just about every trophy possible. He was only a kid when he started playing with the Boston Bruins. His name on the shields when he started was Robert Orr. Five years later, all his trophies were brought back to have the name changed. I removed the old shields and replaced them with new ones which said, Bobby Orr. How fame changes your name.
