Sports Quotes

I was going to design sports cars, but my father came to my college to visit me. At the time he was making a picture in Sweden and he took me there with him.

At Barca, players were banned from driving their sports cars to training Picture Quote #1

I never understood how men could remember all those details about sports but, yet, were incapable of remembering where they set their car keys or wallet Picture Quote #1

It’s not that I don’t want a fast car. I like the speed. I’m just not the type of person who finds a sports car a sexy car Picture Quote #1

I’ve always liked speed. I own a car that I shouldn’t be talking about because I’m an environmentalist, but the 1955 Porsche Spyder 550 RS is the finest sports car ever made Picture Quote #1

Some receivers are like sports cars: they have a lot of speed and flair. Me, I’m like an old pickup truck. I just bounce around and try to get the job done Picture Quote #1

Fishing’s relaxing, man. Most relaxing thing in my life. It’s therapy for me. I don’t think about business... sports. All I think about is catching the next fish Picture Quote #1

Sports biography at its best. Rich in period detail, anecdote, and fresh perspective, Strong Boy paints both the good and the bad sides of success, as America’s growing celebrity culture turned a simple Irish American gladiator into a national, in fact international hero. A very human story with profound parallels for our sports-obsessed culture today! Picture Quote #1

Editorial imagery licensing includes celebrity, entertainment, sports, and news images that capture what is happening in the world around us Picture Quote #1

I’ve aways been good at picking up certain things, like sports and dancing Picture Quote #1

As a sophomore, I wanted to play varsity in three sports. And I accomplished that. It was a great feat that year, and something I held special. I wanted to bring a championship team to Oceanside High School, and it happened. It was a great year that I will never forget Picture Quote #1

That’s the one regret I have in all the years that I’ve played professional sports, that I didn’t win a championship in the N.F.L. And that’s why you play on any level of team sports: you want to win a championship as part of a team Picture Quote #1

I was always very physical, growing up, and did sports. I like to get out and do different things, and walk in different shoes. I like change. I like challenge Picture Quote #1

My parents were very supportive of my chess. When I got home after a game of chess, having missed school or something, they always made me feel very welcome; I didn’t feel guilty at all about pursuing chess with such fervour. They never, for instance, perceived sports as a rival to academics Picture Quote #1

I don’t consider myself a particularly young chess player. I have been playing in the best tournaments in the world since I was 16 years old. In other sports, if you have been playing for seven years, you are not a young prodigy any more. You’re one of the pros Picture Quote #1

I also have a soft spot for spicy chicken wings. They are always best eaten at dives and sports bars, like Wogie’s in the West Village, New York City, near my house Picture Quote #1

I can’t divorce myself from my childhood. I try to write as much fiction as I possibly can, but there are so many things that are touchstones of my childhood like being on the swim team and playing soccer and the particularities of sports season and environments that make their way into my books Picture Quote #1

I had a series of childhood illnesses... scarlet fever.... pneumonia.... Polio. I walked with braces until I was at least nine years old. My life wasn’t like the average person who grew up and decided to enter the world of sports Picture Quote #1

It’s no surprise that I ended up in sportscasting. I lived this world with my father, Mike Storen. Dad was a sports executive for most of my childhood Picture Quote #1

I didn’t grow up a theatre kid, going to theatre camps. I played sports, and that was my main direction. But luckily, I never had to choose between sports and theatre Picture Quote #1

Most people have a concentration in particular areas; it might be politics, it might be science, it might be business, it might be sports. I care about all of those, and that’s why I’ve chosen the formats I chose Picture Quote #1

When cerebral processes enter into sports, you start screwing up. It’s like the Constitution, which says separate church and state. You have to separate mind and body Picture Quote #1

Sports teams, people who follow sports teams, religion, churches, work - any company, I find that people just generally have a need to belong to something larger than themselves Picture Quote #1

Whitney Houston rear-ended a city bus with her sports car, but no one was hurt. She said she didn’t know what happened. One minute she was concentrating on the big white line, and the next, boom! Picture Quote #1

I think sports and bodybuilding were the only things that saved me from getting beat up. People are not pleased, for whatever reason, when you can answer all the questions in class. If not for the respect I got from track, cross-country, wrestling and bodybuilding, it would have been a disaster Picture Quote #1

I had no interest in sports so I didn’t make friends in that traditional way where kids are in public school and they go and they join clubs, and play sports. So I kind of had to find my own way to make friends and get attention and so I just was the class clown Picture Quote #1

I was into sports in high school, but I got kicked out of Richmond High at 17, so I never graduated. However, I still get invites to the class reunions... I don’t know that I want to see how everyone looks now Picture Quote #1

There’s an undeniable pleasure in stepping into an open-top sports car driven by a beautiful woman. It feels like you’re climbing into a metaphor Picture Quote #1
