The Chinese have figured out that they have a giant environmental problem. Folks in Beijing, some days, literally can’t breathe. Over a million Chinese die prematurely every year because of air pollution Picture Quote #1

As we say at Year Up all the time, investing in our young people is not just a matter of economic justice. It’s good business sense Picture Quote #1

I don’t mind being pale. In high school, it seemed like everybody cared about being tan all year round, but I haven’t really thought about it since then. I don’t go to a tanning bed, and I get bored when I lay out. I put sunscreen on when I’m in the sun, and sometimes I get tan, but I don’t really think about it very much Picture Quote #1

The only thing bad about winning the pennant is that you have to manage the All-Star Game the next year. I’d rather go fishing for three days Picture Quote #1

I met Powel Crosley at an All-Star Game in 1935. He was familiar, of course, with our winning record at Rochester. We seemed to hit it off immediately, and the following year, when he was looking for a successor to Larry MacPhail, he thought of me Picture Quote #1

Getting back in the directors chair - there’s a sense of like doing something every year. It’s not like riding a bike, you’re always learning new things, you’re gonna face new challenges and when you face new challenges you’ll have an answer for them Picture Quote #1

There’s so much stuff being written! Every year, how many books come out? I can’t keep up, and I read a lot. It’s amazing Picture Quote #1

You know, it’s amazing. I don’t even have a car, would you believe it? I had a motorbike and it got stolen last year. So I’ve got to buy another one of those, I suppose. I can treat myself to that Picture Quote #1

The first year of the Boot Ride was an amazing experience. Seeing people come out from all over, ride and, most importantly, put on their boots, was an inspiration Picture Quote #1

The Oval Office is a place where there’s been, obviously, a lot of amazing experiences over a seven-and-a-half year period. My presidency is one where I’ve had to make some very tough decisions. I guess some presidencies are kind of - were real smooth, there were no real big issues. Well, that’s not the way mine is Picture Quote #1

I also mixed David Bowie’s Young Americans album in 5.1 earlier this year and it will be available very soon. Even the original stereo mixes have been re-mastered and sound amazingly good, better than ever, in fact! Picture Quote #1

I’ve never stabbed, hurt, killed, stolen, anything, but I went to jail for a year. What is that? My pastor said to me the fact that I’m not living under a bridge as a crazy woman, talking to myself, is amazing Picture Quote #1

I think it’s amazing that I’m 45 and it is the most creatively successful year of my life Picture Quote #1

After a pretty amazing year that included more wins than I thought possible, I rang in 2013 by watching the Times Square ball drop on TV... and then heading directly to bed. It might not have been the typical New Year’s Eve for a 21-year-old, but what can I say? It was a training night! Picture Quote #1

I go to Saint Barth in the French West Indies for two weeks each year. That place is amazing. Amazing people, beautiful beaches, great wine, wonderful harbors... It’s incredibly romantic Picture Quote #1

My first plays were amazingly bad, but I had a teacher who thought I had promise, and he kept working with me. I finally went to a summer workshop before my senior year with people like Sam Shepard and Maria Irene Fornes who encouraged me to write from my subconscious, and suddenly all this material about culture clash came out Picture Quote #1

And I don’t want you thinking that my girlfriend is a bad person. She is an amazing woman, the fact that I only have seven stories about her in eight years, says a lot. You know, don’t get me wrong, five of them happened this year, but that’s still way below the bar, you know what I am saying Picture Quote #1

The worst case scenario sees the Amazon rainforest burning, huge amounts of methane being released by Siberian peat bogs and so on - by the time today’s six year olds are 60, such a scenario would see global warming already out of control Picture Quote #1

When a chainsaw rips into a 2,000 year old redwood tree, it’s ripping into my guts. When a bulldozer plows through the Amazon rainforest, it’s ripping through my side. And when a Japanese whaling ship fires an exploding harpoon into a great whale it’s my heart that’s being blown to smithereens Picture Quote #1

There’s that talent thing where I can score goals, and there’s also that want and ambition to keep doing it and doing it and doing it. I’ve seen a lot of players do it for a year and then they rest on their laurels, but I’ve been very driven throughout my career. Without being the most talented, I think I’ve tried to make the most of it Picture Quote #1
