“If I could have married my wife and been a sports writer for the past ...” — Richard Ford Quote

“If I could have married my wife and been a sports writer for the past 30 years, I wouldn't be sitting here - but I don't think I'd be sitting someplace where I was sorry to be sitting.”

“Then, what's the matter?' I wonder, in fact, how many times I have said that or something equal to it to a woman passing palely through my life.”

“If you lose all hope, you can always find it again.”
