After all the field gezegde

 After all the field of battle possesses many advantages over the drawing-room. There at least is no room for pretension or excessive ceremony, no shaking of hands or rubbing of noses, which make one doubt your sincerity, but hearty as well as hard hand-play. It at least exhibits one of the faces of humanity, the former only a mask.
  Henry David Thoreau

"We consecrate your cash and lands To ecclesiastical service. No doubt you'll swear till all is blue At such an imposition. Do." --Pollo Doncas
  Ambrose Bierce

I really appreciate all the support we've gotten this year.

 I just want to come in and be myself, you know. And that means go out and play hard every day. Try to help the team win games. When you say a leader, you usually think about somebody whose standing in the middle of the room telling everybody stuff. I don't know if I'll be that person, but I'll definitely try to lead by the way I'm playing on the field or by the way I carry myself on and off the field, the way I get ready to play the games every day.

"I was in the drawing-room, enjoying my dinner," said Brillat- Savarin, beginning an anecdote. "What!" interrupted Rochebriant;

  Ambrose Bierce

 We wrestled Robinson really poorly early in the season and we lost 70-10. We got to the locker room and I said 'raise your hand if you are a freshman or a sophomore. We had 13 kids dress that day.
