I am a professional sportswriter, among other things, and I take the games seriously. It is only one of my many powerful addictions, and I don't mind admitting any of them.

Never fire a warning shot. It is a waste of ammunition.

I am an Addictive Personality, they say, a natural slave to passion - and many Doctors have warned me against it. I am a High-risk Patient.

There is nothing worse than a man in the throws of an ether bender.

Most people who deal in words don't have much faith in them and I am no exception.

One thing I have learned in my painful career as a gambler is that bragging when you get lucky and win a few games will plunge you into gloom and unacceptable beatings very soon. It happens every time.

I feel trapped if I know I can't kill myself at anytime
