I am not a yachting person, by nature, but I have just enough experience on the sea under sail to feel a certain nostalgia for it when I see a big white racing yacht heeled over at cruising speed on the ocean, and I can still tie a mean bowline knot on just about anything in less than 10 seconds.
~ Hunter S. Thompson
I would love to be a grinder on some race yacht.

~ Troy Deeney
I developed my training routine going into my senior year at Jackson State. I found this sandbank by the Pearl River near my hometown, Columbia, Miss. I laid out a course of 65 yards or so. Sixty-five yards on sand is like 120 on turf, but running on sand helps you make your cuts at full speed.
~ Walter Payton
The tag that I was too small and too slow just made me work that much harder. Besides, quickness is more important than flat-out speed. How often does a receiver run 40 yards straight down the field? Not very often. Lateral speed is what counts. How quickly can you get in and out of a cut? I can do that as well as anyone.
~ Steve Largent
There's two players that really stand out: Sean Wright-Phillips and Aaron Lennon. They're very small so have a low centre of gravity so they're very quick over five yards. You always had to stay switched on and try and predict where they were going as it was always a battle with those two.
~ Wayne Bridge
I didn't mind playing against Ronaldo. He wasn't as quick as me over the first few yards, I always felt that I could stick with him and I always felt I did okay against him. You always had to be switched on. He loved a step-over and was very skillful and he could sometimes make you look stupid.
~ Wayne Bridge
If I scramble, I might get 5, 10, 15, 20 yards, but I'm not that fast. I always want to get it to the guys that can make plays.
~ Carson Wentz
If I am running 100 yards, I should be cut. Because then I am getting beat. I do not need to be doing that. I need to be running 20, 30, 40 yards as fast as I can over and over and over at optimal energy and efficiency and speed.
~ Eric Weddle

I like the sci-fi channel. Just science in general. I came across a segment on time travel and how time travel is possible. We create a spaceship that's moving at almost the speed of light, we go in that spaceship in outer space, and we fly around for a year, when we get back to Earth, Earth would've aged 10 years.
~ Von Miller
During our first year, we were playing Priest and Maiden cover tunes all the time while we figured out what we wanted to do as a band. At the time I was getting out of metal and into punk. That's how Slayer's sound came together - it's the speed of punk combined with the big riffs of metal.
~ Jeff Hanneman

I'm going to introduce you to a revolutionary thought - you can go slower and get there quicker. And that's to do with flow. As soon as you made it two lanes and brought in the 70 (mph) and 50 (mph), you got there quicker. It meant the flow of the traffic was better, there were less accidents, less deaths, I think that's an important factor.
~ John Prescott
Mile tracks put more emphasis on the driver. On the longer tracks, you can drive flat out all the way around, so it's more of an engineering exercise. On a mile, you can't run flat out. You're constantly in traffic, there's more driver involvement.
~ Buddy Rice
