“If I were to give a prize for the single best idea anybody ever had, I'd give it to Darwin for the idea of natural selection - ahead of Newton, ahead of Einstein - because his idea unites the two most disparate features of our universe: the world of purposeless, meaningless matter and motion, particles jostling on the one side, and the world of meaning and purpose, design on the other.” IfsWorldGivingTwoIdeasMatterPurposeUniverseSidesNaturalDesignFeaturesPrizeMeaninglessSelectionParticlesNewtonNatural Selection Author:Daniel Dennett
“There's no "I" on the football field. We have a total commitment to each other when we're out there. There is no doubt. It doesn't matter. The wins and losses of the game don't resonate with us. What resonates with us is "how much effort would you give for the man next to you."” MenGivingMatterNextGamesWinningLossEffortDoubtFieldsFootballHe ManCommitmentNo DoubtFootball FieldWins And Losses Author:Ray Lewis

“To me, attacking football happens when Makelele gets the ball and passes it to the central defender who passes it to the right-back who comes forward and judges the situation. If he can do something he passes forward or runs with the ball, if not he gives it back to Makelele who builds the attack again. That is attacking football. In England attacking football is giving the ball to Makelele and having him hit it forward no matter what, even if everybody is marked.” IfsGivingMatterHappensRunningCan DoSituationFootballJudgingBallsEnglandNo Matter WhatAttackingDefendersCan Do Something Author:Jose Mourinho
“Very many people spend money in ways quite different from those that their natural tastes would enjoin, merely because the respect of their neighbors depends upon their possession of a good car and their ability to give good dinners. As a matter of fact, any man who can obviously afford a car but genuinely prefers travels or a good library will in the end be much more respected than if he behaved exactly like everyone else.” PeopleIfsMenWayGivingDifferentEndsMatterFactsNaturalAbilityCarDependsTasteLibraryPossessionDinnerNeighborMatter Of Fact Author:Bertrand Russell
