Alex HaleyI was not popular in school, and I was definitely not a ladies' man. And I had a very painful adolescence, because it was all very strange to me.

Jami AttenbergPart of the reason I fell in love with the trail is because it was so extremely difficult, more difficult than the marathons and Ironmans I'd competed in. Not just physically but emotionally it was a new challenge, as well. It really helped me to learn and grow in so many ways.
Jennifer Pharr DavisI know from the elders that it's not so easy to sustain a life in music, a presence in the music world, for decades on end.

Michael Eric DysonJeff Sessions takes the job, gets into the job, recuses himself. Which frankly I think is very unfair to the president. How do you take a job and then recuse yourself?
