“To borrow a simile from the football field, we believe that men must play fair, but that there must be no shirking, and that the success can only come to the player who hits the line hard.” MenBelieveHardPlayPresidentLinesPlayerFieldsFootballFairsSimileFootball Field Author:Theodore Roosevelt
“You ask me: 'Was he a fair player?' I say: 'No, I'm sorry, for me he was not a fair player.' I just think I respect him highly as a quality player. I did not like some things he did on the football pitch and I have the right to say that. It's not because you are older, suddenly, that you are a saint.” ThinkingAsksQualityPlayerFootballFairsSorrySaintAsk MeI'm Sorry Author:Arsene Wenger
“In England everything is liberalised. Within certain boundaries and rules everybody can do what he likes. Maybe London's society has a different tempo, a different dynamic. London is fast, productive, creative but it is not England. If you want to transfer that to football, you could say: in the four big English clubs and maybe in the one or two behind them there is a top level. Everything that comes after that rather mirrors English society. It's honest, fair and hard, sometimes also fast, but not always so perfect.” IfsWantTwoDifferentSometimesHardBigsCertainCan DoPerfectLevelsBehindsCreativeFourHonestFootballFairsEnglandMirrorsClubsLondonBoundariesLikesManagersSoccerProductiveChairmanTransfersTempoEnglish Society Author:Jens Lehmann
“I played a little basketball, but basketball interfered with theater season. That's when we did our term plays and did nutshell versions of Shakespeare for English classes.

“I don't think you can explain why all these other sports and college basketball have a fair representation of African American coaches, but college football doesn't.

“I always say artists must broaden their research. I go to casinos, fly fishing, to show apartments in new residential buildings, watch fairs, the football, ikebana courses, survival expeditions, Dungeons & Dragons nights, and it doesn't matter which of these I personally want to do — that is my job. That’s true research; otherwise, it would be a bit like masturbating.” WantMatterShowsWould BeJobsArtistNightCoursesBitsWatchesBuildingFootballSurvivalResearchFairsFishingDragonsApartmentFly FishingCasinosDungeonsExpeditions Author:Ryan Gander
“You can relax more when you're playing a silly character than when you're playing a really rigid character. But to be fair, I think George Clooney is a bigger teenager than any of the 'Twilight' cast.
