I don't know what happened. He leaned into it."

Ani DiFrancoUsually I begin things through a drawing, so a lot of things are worked out in the drawing. But even then, I still allow for and want to make changes.

It's only a guess at the beginning, and then I try to refine it.

Sherrilyn KenyonI have also heard and read various accounts of why they [Sheldon Leonard and Carl Reiner] liked me. My favorites?

Let that be a lesson for future generations.
Dick Van DykeEvery single guy that I've caddied, even guys that I've caddied for just here and there over the years has won tournaments. There's no one I've caddied for that hasn't won tournaments.
