There's nothing in the proverb

 There's nothing in the middle of the road but yellow stripes and dead armadillos.

 The middle of the road is for yellow lines and dead armadillos.

 I'd never seen such yellow. Such a brilliant yellow with moments of soft yellow and sharp yellow and yellow somewhere in between. It looked gold sometimes and white. Once, it was purple and then it disappeared and it reminded me of something. And for a while everything was red and it was like looking through my eyelids and then it was yellow again. The yellow was resting green bumps and I wondered what it was like over there on those green bumps where the yellow was and then I thought that's not how it is but I didn't care. All I saw was yellow and I saw everything. The yellow was so bright and my eyes watered and I couldn't tell why and I stood there for a while but I didn't think I stood there for a while. I didn't think at all. I only thought of the yellow and I thought of everything. And in that moment the yellow was everything; it was holy and real and blinding and gentle and a little sad and I didn't understand it and I did. Did I? Did I.

 It's a little bit odd. I've got the yellow (rookie) stripes on the back of my car.

 I really didn't see it as overshadowing me, ... He's been in the league so long. He's earned his stripes. I was a young cat coming up, doing the things I had to do to earn my stripes. I made my plays. As the years moved on, I earned my stripes. The fans knew who I was when I stepped on the field. When you play next to Ray, you have to do a lot of things to get noticed.

 I think it's all about wearing horizontal stripes in the right way. I think it's a reality that bigger horizontal stripes don't flatter bigger body types. I think that thinner stripes are certainly more flattering.

 All of us shared a common experience. No matter how educated or rich or wise we were, all of us got on a bus in the middle of the night, got driven out to someplace in the middle of nowhere, piled off at 2 o'clock in the morning, and had some guy yelling at us and telling us to stand on the yellow line.

 I played 'Dead Skunk in the Middle of the Road' by Loudon Wainwright III. We played 'Girls Just Wanna Have Fun' by Cyndi Lauper; 'I Like Big Butts' by Sir Mix-a-Lot. I think people are just trying to torture us.
