Unless you have bad times, you can't appreciate the good times.

If a club is winning, you never pay attention to a guy who's 0-for-10. If a club is losing, all of a sudden you'll find that he's the main reason why you're losing, which is absurd for me.

I've been very, very fortunate. I never had to work for a living.

I'm sensitive and get easily upset and insulted.

I studied international relations and economics at the University of Virginia. I paid my way by working as a bartender in the summer and at three part-time jobs during the year.

I've learned that even the word 'jubilee' used in connection with the Reformation can give rise to discussions.
