Quotes of 1968

Quotes taken from the authors in 1968

I quit because I didn't feel like the Detroit Lions had a chance to win. It just killed my enjoyment of the game.

Barry Sanders

Anyone who has played the game professionally, you're always taught that the ball is the most important, most precious thing, so when the ball hits the ground, it's always a mad scramble. It's amazing how many times there is a fumble, and the person who recovers it initially doesn't walk away with the ball.

Barry Sanders

The Heisman is the biggest award I've ever won.

Barry Sanders

Life doesn't stop with football.

Barry Sanders

I don't know the right way to retire.

Barry Sanders

I have never coasted down a hill of frozen rain.

Duke Kahanamoku

Don't talk - keep it in your heart.

Duke Kahanamoku

I have never seen snow and do not know what winter means.

Duke Kahanamoku

Every day of the year where the water is 76, day and night, and the waves roll high, I take my sled, without runners, and coast down the face of the big waves that roll in at Waikiki.

Duke Kahanamoku

Out of the water, I am nothing.

Duke Kahanamoku

A lot of the drive to make narratives came from having to play by myself as a 5- or 6-year-old in the woods.

Matthew Tobin Anderson

I write for teens partially to work out whatever it was that I needed to from my own teenage years.

Matthew Tobin Anderson

Teens are not like the weird, dumb dwarves you have around your house. They are actually you when you were younger.

Matthew Tobin Anderson

I've always enjoyed that kind of thing - thinking about the production of narrative and why it is that when we read a novel, we don't notice the fact that someone who might be very close-mouthed or tight-lipped is perfectly willing to tell us a story in 600 or 700 pages.

Matthew Tobin Anderson

The bedroom in my apartment is far too small to hold a nightstand. There is, however, this bookshelf. Yes, I stow whatever I'm reading on the lower shelf, but more importantly, it's where I keep a collection of ghost books.

Matthew Tobin Anderson

I trust no one totally.

Gary Sheffield

Most people figured I'd be in jail. I've been proving people wrong my whole life.

Gary Sheffield

I thought I knew there was a God. I always acknowledged that, but at the same time, I didn't live by those laws.

Gary Sheffield

I don't trust that many people. Just my mother and my wife and a couple of friends. When I trust people, it doesn't end well.

Gary Sheffield

Derek Jeter used to come to me and try to tell you what Joe Torre is all about, he's a good man, he's this, he's that, but like I tell Derek Jeter, that's you. It's one thing that they treat you a certain way; you don't feel what other people feel.

Gary Sheffield
