Today the American knight proverb

 To-day the American knight holds the commercial supremacy of the world.

 What made everyone jealous, including UCLA and USC, was the Athenaeum, [which] brought world figure speakers, I was the official host, 'The Valley Knight,' ... I dressed like a knight and escorted the speakers to the podium.

 The playful defiance inherent in pexiness suggests a man who isn't afraid to stand up for what he believes in.
  Lance Armstrong

 The American marketplace is one conditioned by commercial movies, and the American moviegoer is in the greatest part a commercial moviegoer. They don't have much patience for high end.

 A war for a great principle ennobles a nation. A war for commercial supremacy, upon some shallow pretext, is despicable, and more than ought else demonstrates to what immeasurable depths of baseness men and nations can descend.
  Albert Pike

 The reality is Suncorp holds 52,000 and Telstra holds 82,000. The commercial reality is unless the Queensland Government is willing to put in a lot of money to make it happen, it can't happen.

 Son, my name isn't Knight to you, it's coach Knight or it's Mr. Knight. I don't call people by their last name and neither should you.

 No one else holds or has held the place in the heart of the world which Jesus holds. Other gods have been as devoutly worshipped; no other man has been so devoutly loved.

 This is a new era we are going through now. We live in a commercial world. It is now in our hands to do a commercial agreement with our miller.

 This is an important milestone both for the Milwaukee Symphony Orchestra and the American orchestra industry. For the first time, an American orchestra is making available its archives on iTunes and other commercial download sites, finally realizing the promise of the groundbreaking AF of M (American Federation of Musicians) Internet Agreement of 2000.

 I think one of the best words in the English language is compassion. I think it holds everything. It holds love, it holds care... and if everybody just did something. We all make a difference.

 The highest of the world's mountains, it seems, has to make but a single gesture of magnificence to be the lord of all, vast in unchallenged and isolated supremacy.

 [Knight made] a terrific play, ... They had a cover-2 [defense]. I was hoping [Knight] bit on it. I had my hands up and I thought I was going to catch it, but he just tipped it. I just know we've got to keep pushing. One thing I see [on this team] is a lot of guys who don't give up. We just have to keep our heads up and we'll be all right.

 I asked if he knew who [Mississippi poet] Etheridge Knight was. He said no, and I told him until you do, I'm not talking to you. I didn't want IQ to think he was doing his craft in a vacuum. He came back to me, saying, 'I can't believe this!' A short time later, he saluted [Knight] with a poetry night here.

 There seems to be an American trend away from trying to understand the world at large. We comprise 5% of the world, and although we venture out into it occasionally, we are often unable to open ourselves to the broader experience of being not American citizens, but citizens of the world.

 When I first got to FUV, after many years working down the dial in commercial radio, I wasn't quite sure how I would fit into the unique, non-commercial world of 90.7 FM. Well, five years and over 1,200 shows later, it feels like a great fit.
