You can’t connect the dots looking forward; you can only connect them looking backwards. So you have to trust that the dots will somehow connect in your future.

Life must be lived as play.

When you have nobody you can make a cup of tea for, when nobody needs you, that’s when I think life is over.

One should take good care not to grow too wise for so great a pleasure of life as laughter.

One must change one’s tactics every ten years if one wishes to maintain one’s superiority.

It is foolish and wrong to mourn the men who died. Rather we should thank God that such men lived.

The last act is bloody, however pleasant all the rest of the play is: a little earth is thrown at last upon our head, and that is the end forever.

Every man has the right to risk his own life in order to preserve it. Has it ever been said that a man who throws himself out the window to escape from a fire is guilty of suicide?

Change is the law of life. And those who look only to the past or present are certain to miss the future.

Life is an adventure, it’s not a package tour.

I have learned, in my life and work as a sportswriter, that big-time Sports and big-time Politics are not so far apart in America. They are both a means to the same end, which is victory… And why not? Victory is good for you, and don’t let anybody tell you different.
