“As soon as you think of fishing you think of things that don't belong to the modern world. The very idea of sitting all day under a willow tree beside a quiet pool - and being able to find a quiet pool to sit beside- belongs to a time before the war, before radio, before aeroplanes, before Hitler.” ThinkingWorldIdeasWarAbleTreeSeaModernQuietSittingRiversFishesRadioBoatLakesFishingPoolModern WorldAeroplanesWillow Trees Book:Coming Up for Air Source: Coming Up for Air

“A writer from ESPN magazine once described me as the world's largest eleven-year-old. That's true. I ride my Sea-Doo jet ski, play putt-putt golf, go to water parks, and act silly. On the bottom floor of my house in Beverly Hills, I have video games, a pool table, a Pepsi machine, and all the things they have in arcades. I drive go-karts, at least the ones I can fit in. I karate-chop my friends when they come over, like the Kato dude in the Pink Panther movies.” WorldYearsI CanPlayGamesHouseWaterSeaFitBasketballMy FriendsMachinesTablesGolfBottomSillyVideoMagazinesHillsParksPoolElevenJetKarateSkisPanthersBeverly HillsPepsiEspnArcadesPink PantherPool Table Author:Shaquille O'Neal
