Shannon Higgins-CirovskiTo those advocates of independent paper moneys who also champion the free market, I would address this simple question: "Why don't you advocate the unlimited freedom of each individual to manufacture dollars?"

Voltairine de CleyreBoxing and chess are similar. Itยs about the choice of means. Sometimes I need a pawn, a bishop or a knight to defeat my opponent. Itยs about finding the best way. A good boxer has to be variable. He doesnยt just need to know how to punch. He must also know how to protect himself, how to defend, how to avoid the opponentยs punches. Only a complete fighter can become champion.

Johnny WeirOne minute I'm robbing a dope house. Next minute I'm the youngest heavyweight champion of the world. I'm only 20, 19, with a lot of money. Who am I? What am I? I don't even know who I am.

NicoLetโs be honest. Who here thinks your professors can say what they really believe? It scares me to death, and should scare you too, that the superstition of political correctness rules the halls of reason. What does all of this mean? It means that telling us what to think has evolved into telling us what to say, so telling us what to do canโt be far behind. Before you claim to be a champion of free thought, tell me: Why did political correctness originate on Americaโs campuses? And why do you continue to tolerate it? Why do you, whoโre supposed to debate ideas, surrender to their suppression?
Charlton HestonIt's not my goal, definitely. I mean, I don't think it's something I can really achieve. Definitely she's a great champion - she has nine titles.

Lindsey GrahamThe power of God has not in the least bit been diminished over the past 2000 years. Our Lord still sits on His great throne and His train still fills the temple. He still walks on the wings of the wind, He still rides on the backs of the mighty cherubim, and He still is the Triumphant Champion from Calvary. All hell still bends to His will, and sin and death have lost their hold on all who rest in the shadow of His presence. And the God who calmed storms, raised up dead men to life, and multiplied fishes and loaves to feed thousands is the same God we have today.

Hope SoloCoach's Rule: never admit a lack of experience or knowledge. Carry on at all times as though you've guided a hundred champion crews. Honesty is not the best policy when leading a bunch of college rowers. They are looking for strong, disciplined leadership and not a kinder, gentler coach. Once you've established a certain attitude and demeanor, it's nearly impossible to change to a difference mode in mid-season.

Joseph CampbellThere are so many intellectual and moral angels battling for rationalism, good citizenship, and pure spirituality; so many and such eminent ones, so very vocal and authoritative! The poor devil in man needs all the support and advocacy he can get. The artist is his natural champion. When an artist deserts to the side of the angels, it is the most odious of treasons.
Aldous Huxley
