  Alistair Cooke

en It doesn't have anything to do with the budget of the film. It has to do with the scope and scale of ambition, and the skill that people brought to it to realize that ambition.

en It is possible to view the Golf Book - an illuminated manuscript from about 1540 showing one of the earliest illustrations of a golf player - much better on the web than through the glass of an exhibition case.

en It is the result of ambition and arrogance of the political machine [DeLay] helped to build.

en Beware your inner idiot. Success and stupidity don't mix. Your boss's stupidity is only half the problem. Your own stupidity can easily complete the disaster.

  Arthur Conan Doyle, Sr.

en You'd have to say all of them, but Barry Sanders was special. I remember the one highlight film against the Bears -- that's the one that stands out -- and he's had a couple of great games against us. The guy is amazing to watch and to play against.

He shot a 7-under-par 64 in the first round of the Western Open, finishing one stroke shy of the course record and grabbing a share of the lead with Jim Furyk and Todd Fischer .] I'm still a long ways away from playing really good golf, ... It's coming, but I'd like to put four good rounds together instead of one or two.

en Courage takes many forms. There is physical courage, there is moral courage. Then there is a still higher type of courage--the courage to brave pain, to live with it, to never let others know of it and to still find joy in life; to wake up in the morning with an enthusiasm for the day ahead.
  Howard Cosell
