"It's not really about the competition. Your biggest challenge in a race is yourself. You're often racing against time. You're frequently running everything through your mind. You're always competing against preconceived ideas. It's not really the person next to you that you worry about." —Summer Sanders
“Las Vegas is perhaps the most color-blind, class-free place in America. As long as your cash or credit line holds out, no one gives a damn about your race, gender, national origin, sexual orientation, address, family lineage, voter registration or even your criminal arrest record. Money is the great leveler.” —MARC COOPER, The Last Honest Place in America
“I like the fog that creeps over the whole city every night about five, and the warm protective feeling it gives… and lights of San Francisco at night, the fog horn, the bay at dusk and the little flower stands where spring flowers appear before anywhere else in the country… But, most of all, I like the view of the ocean from the Cliff House.” —Irene Dunne
"The fact is that more people have been slaughtered in the name of religion than for any other single reason. That, that my friends, is true perversion." —Harvey Milk
"We’ve never been in a city with light like this. We sit in our hotel room for hours, watching the fog come in, the light change." —John Lennon & Yoko Ono
“If you get separated, make it to the platform at Union Square. That's where we change trains.” —Swan, the Warriors
“A city is where you can sign a petition, boo the chief justice, fish off a pier, gaze at a hippopotamus, buy a flower at the corner, or get a good hamburger or a bad girl at 4 A.M. A city is where sirens make white streaks of sound in the sky and foghorns speak in dark grays. San Francisco is such a city.” —Herb Caen
"As people get more desperate, history suggests that they're not going to rise in a mighty proletarian tidal wave and wash away their oppressors. They're gonna turn on each other." —Alan Moore
"Avoid destructive thinking. Negative thoughts sink people. A ship can sail around the world many, many times, but just let enough water get into the ship and it will sink. Just so with the human mind. Let enough negative thoughts get into the human mind and the person sinks just like a ship." —Alfred A. Montapert
