Woody Hayes Quotes

Hay relaciones en las que las palabras dice amistad, pero los ojos gritan romance.

Anything that's easy ain't worth a damn

You win with people

Muerte (Una comedia) KLEINMAN: ¡Oh, no, no pienso quedarme aquí solo! ¡Estás de broma! ¡Hay un loco suelto por ahí! ¡Yo no me entiendo bien con los locos! Soy un individuo muy lógico.

There was an alchemy in this noise and exultation: spellbound in the sorcery of these songs, I became we, me became us. For there was an empowerment in this empathy, a catharsis in this energy, as if each man gathered the bare bones of his personal circumstances and was banging a rhythm out of them, a rhythm that sang with the ferocious energy of survival, a heartbeat that said they weren’t beat. Because singing was breathing and dancing was moving, and breathing and moving were for the quick and not the dead. And suddenly, the air was full of wet — damp with breath and sweat. Face were dripping, arms were flailing, kids were kissing, Pas were cussing, and Mas were laughing, and all were swaying in a way that had something to do with the homebrew, something to do with the music, with the way things are, with the way they should be, and the way they have always been.
