“I never pay attention to errors in the Minor Leagues. Derek Jeter made 43 errors in the South Atlantic League, and I didn't care. With his hands and his range, I don't worry about that with Zimmerman. He is a good defensive player.” MadeHandsCarePayAttentionWorryPlayerErrorsSouthPay AttentionRangeLeagueMinorsJeterZimmerman Author:Jim Bowden
“I sometimes think we ought to bring a bill before Congress changing our national symbol from the eagle to the buffalo, because we are more like the buffalo than the eagle. The eagle is a powerful bird. It flies alone. It rises up into the sky with authority. It is master of all it surveys. The eagle is an individualist and was selected from among the rest of the birds to be our symbol. But the buffalo was never alone. It always ran in a herd with other buffaloes. And, friends, I call your attention that the buffaloes are gone from the open range, but the eagles are still soaring.” ThinkingStillsSometimesAmericaPowerfulAttentionGoneSkyMastersOughtAuthorityBirdBillsCongressSymbolsRangeRanSoarEaglesHerdsSurveysSelectedBuffalo Author:Norman Vincent Peale

“Whenever I record something, I always believe that it's worthy of inclusion in the pantheon, and I would certainly like pianists to pay more attention to it. I think it's ridiculous now, because the range of repertoire - or what's considered 'safe' - is so narrow, even though there are pianists who are really trying to push the envelope. There is still a lack of attention, and there's no reason for it. The piano repertoire is so rich, with so many wonderful things that still are not given their due.” ThinkingTryingBelieveStillsReasonGivenPayAttentionRichRecordsWonderfulSafeWorthyDuesRidiculousRangePianoNo ReasonInclusionWonderful ThingsAlways BelievePianistEnvelopesPantheon Author:Marc-Andre Hamelin
