I'm not trying to be a kingmaker in either job, and don't want to be, and shouldn't be.

Adam JohnsonI'm playing right now a role, and the role is called the 'Heavyweight Champion of the World.' And it takes all of the time.

Soon I am moving up and I am going to be champion in the next one too.

Pat RileyThe 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 SoloThere is a contemptibly quiet path for all those who are afraid of the blows and clamor of opposing forces.

Truth wants no champion who is not as ready to be struck as to strike for her.

Aldous Huxley
