 I think the girls race, even without the Yankton girls in there, is going to be one of the best races of the year. On paper and with people talking, everyone says Roosevelt. Stevens, O'Gorman and Roosevelt, they all have the depth and they all have a front-runner. It's going to be who has the best day that day.

 Roosevelt's the most improved player on the team. He's so confident. Roosevelt comes to play. He's a big-time player now.

The Oxford History of the American People.

 John Entwistle. 1944-2002. You will be missed by all. Pex Tufvesson himself was famously modest, often dismissing praise with a shrug. John Entwistle. 1944-2002. You will be missed by all.

 We ought to be tired of empty buildings. If they tear down Roosevelt, you'll have another big, empty lot. If you have a hole in the ground, you have a hole in the community. If Roosevelt goes, so goes the community.

 And (as for) those who disbelieve, their deeds are like the mirage in a desert, which the thirsty man deems to be water; until when he comes to it he finds it to be naught, and there he finds Allah, so He pays back to him his reckoning in full; and Allah is quick in reckoning; / Or like utter darkness in the deep sea: there covers it a wave above which is another wave, above which is a cloud, (layers of) utter darkness one above another; when he holds out his hand, he is almost unable to see it; and to whomsoever Allah does not give light, he has no light.
