Quotes of 1947

Quotes taken from the authors in 1947

I did not have anything to do with these murders. Ever.

O J Simpson

I could not tell you the date of my mother's death. I could not tell you the date of my dad's death. These are not dates that I find significant.

O J Simpson

I'm absolutely, l00 percent, not guilty.

O J Simpson

Money takes wings. The only thing that endures is character.

O J Simpson

My NFL pension can barely pay my son's tuition. You know, it's very little money.

O J Simpson

It's not what you achieve, it's what you overcome. That's what defines your career.

Carlton Fisk

The '70s were a time of turmoil and turnover. But I grew up here. I always wanted to play here.

Carlton Fisk

I always looked up there, because I remember a time when the only things on the walls in Fenway were the Jimmy Fund sign and the retired numbers. Never in a million years did you think you'd ever be up there with those guys.

Carlton Fisk

It's funny. Some people remember that a lot more than I do. I remember certain parts of it, and if everybody who mentioned that to me had been to the game who said they were at the game, there'd be 800,000 people at that game, I think.

Carlton Fisk

And then after that, running around the bases, it was just one of those things. You couldn't believe what happened to you. And I look back on it, it's almost like it happened to somebody else.

Carlton Fisk

My university degree is in art and, yes, I do a lot of drawing for all my books. I have a big drafting table set up in a spare bedroom and I cover it with maps and house plans and sketches that I use in the books. Also, I truly love architecture, so that plays a big part in all my books.

Jude Deveraux

I don't like to read books where I feel as though I've stepped into the middle of things and don't know what's going on. I like to see characters I've met before, but I don't want to feel left out because I haven't read other books in the series.

Jude Deveraux

The United Nations was founded in the aftermath of World War II, just as the world was beginning to learn the full horrors of history's worst genocide, the Holocaust that consumed 6 million Jews and 3 million others in Europe.

Linda Chavez

Choosing one's leaders is an affirmation that the person making the choice has inherent worth.

Linda Chavez

Where journalists have gotten themselves in trouble over the last few decades is that their skepticism often extends only to American officials, the U.S. military and Republican politicians.

Linda Chavez

Liberals believe they own the franchise on minorities and can't stand any Hispanic or black who breaks rank.

Linda Chavez

Neither the wording of the amendment itself nor common practice challenged the widely held belief that government guaranteed freedom of religion, not freedom from religion.

Linda Chavez

Protection of private property is a fundamental right protected in a strong democracy.

Jim Ryun

By finding waste and abuse in entitlement programs, and eliminating it, we can ensure that the funds that are put into these programs go to the people that need them the most.

Jim Ryun

Adult stem cells have shown great potential and have effectively helped patients. Another alternative is cord-blood stem cells. These are a neglected resource that could be used to treat a diverse body of people.
