Although his written words were many, his spoken words were few. I'd like to share some of his most poignant taken from his autobiography 'Succeeding Against the Odds.' He says, and I quote, 'I believe that the only failure is failing to try and if my life has meaning, it is because millions of Americans, black and white, have proved through me that the dream is still alive and well and working in America,'

en My first thought was, bold words for a man whose office is the subject of an on-going criminal inquiry. But apparently that's not the subject of polite conversation.
  Dick Cheney

en Moreover the workers with familiar spirits, and the wizards, and the images, and the idols, and all the abominations that were spied in the land of Judah and in Jerusalem, did Josiah put away, that he might perform the words of the law which were written in the book that Hilkiah the priest found in the house of the LORD.

en At no previous period has mankind been faced by a half-century which so paradoxically united violence and progress. Its greater and lesser wars and long series of major assassinations have been strangely combined with the liberation of more societies and individuals than ever before in history, and by the transformation of millions of second-class citizens -- women, workers and the members of subject races -- to a stage at which first-rate achievement is no longer inhibited even if opportunities are not yet complete.

en Quincy is a loyal person and that's what people don't realize. That's why he's been with Jack so long. The thing Quincy knows is he still has a lot to learn and he wants to graduate.

I'll give him the best advice of what his future will be if he makes that decision (but) we'll wait because I don't want him to worry about this now.

en The preacher sought to find out acceptable words: and that which was written was upright, even words of truth.

en I am a dreamer of words, of written words. I think I am reading; a word stops me. I leave the page. The syllables of the word begin to move around. Stressed accents begin to invert. The word abandons its meaning like an overload which is too heavy and prevents dreaming. Then words take on other meanings as if they had the right to be young. And the words wander away, looking in the nooks and crannies of vocabulary for new company, bad company.

en There is no one better to beat than John Force because when you beat him you beat the best, ... I've won a lot of races before, but never as a team owner. I think it's just starting to sink in. I put a lot of pressure on the guys after Indy, and for them, they worked great this weekend in the heat, under the gun, they pulled through and they got it done.
