“I have tremendous respect for fighters and I always tell people that boxing in movies is one thing but when you get into the ring for real, even the worst heavyweight in the world is going to murder you. You've just got to appreciate the pain and the suffering and the glory and skill that goes into what they do. That's why I love the sport so much.” PeopleWorldRealPainSufferingSportsOne ThingWorstSkillsGloryAppreciateMurderRingsFighterBoxingHeavyweights Author:Sylvester Stallone
“A police reporter walks into the worst moment in someone's life on every single story that he covers. It's not like being a sports reporter. That's a great job and all that and takes certain skills. But, you know, they're glad to see you when you show up to cover the football game. Nobody is ever glad to see a police reporter when he shows up.” KnowsMomentsStoriesShowsJobsCertainGamesSportsWalksWorstFootballSkillsPoliceGladReportersGreat JobFootball GameWorst Moments Author:Bob Schieffer
“I think Dirk [Gently] thinks that he's a brilliant detective, but he's the worst detective, ever. He does have this particular skill, which I suppose you might call a really bad superpower because it's just not very helpful. He is able to sense the connections between things and he's nearly always right, but the problem is that he never knows what to do with any of those messages that he receives from the universe, so he just acts on things and gets himself into terrible trouble, all the time.” ThinkingKnowsDoeProblemMightAbleUniverseTroubleWorstParticularTerribleSkillsMessagesConnectionsBrilliantHelpfulDetectivesSuperpowerDirk Gently Author:Samuel Barnett
“In my own worst seasons I've come back from the colorless world of despair by forcing myself to look hard, for a long time, at a single glorious thing: a flame of red geranium outside my bedroom window. And then another: my daughter in a yellow dress. And another: the perfect outline of a full, dark sphere behind the crescent moon. Until I learned to be in love with my life again. Like a stroke victim retraining new parts of the brain to grasp lost skills, I have taught myself joy, over and over again(15).” WorldLifeLooksLongHardJoyLostDarkMy OwnPerfectBehindsBrainWorstTaughtMoonSkillsDespairLong TimeDaughterRedWindowSeasonsDressesVictimFlamesGloriousMy DaughterYellowSpheresBedroomStrokesRebirthOutlinesColorlessCrescentCrescent Moon Author:Barbara Kingsolver
