Welcome to fight club. the first rule of fight club is: you do not talk about fight club. the second rule of fight club is: you do not talk about fight club! third rule of fight club: if someone yells “stop!”, goes limp, or taps out, the fight is over. fourth rule: only two guys to a fight. fifth rule: one fight at a time, fellas. sixth rule: the fights are bare knuckle. no shirt, no shoes, no weapons. seventh rule: fights will go on as long as they have to. and the eighth and final rule: if this is your first time at fight club, you have to fight.

The voice of mr bush and the voice of mr blair can't decide who shall rule in zimbabwe, who shall rule in africa, who shall rule in asia, who shall rule in venezuela, who shall rule in iran, who shall rule in iraq.

The politics of personal destruction, the politics of division, the politics of fear, it's all there. it helps you to define the politics of moderation - the politics of democratic respect, the politics of hope - more clearly.

I decided that i want to live the rest of my life happy with what i'm doing. so when i play tennis again, i have to play it for the right reason. i don't want to play to get my no. 1 ranking back. i don't want to play for the attention, or to earn more. i don't even want to play because the world wants to see me do it, even though it's nice to know that the world is interested. i only want to play because i love the game, which is the reason i began to play at age seven in the first place.

If youre going to play the game properly, youd better know every rule.

Life to me is the greatest of all games. the danger lies in treating it as a trivial game, a game to be taken lightly, and a game in which the rules don't matter much. the rules matter a great deal. the game has to be played fairly or it is no game at all. and even to win the game is not the chief end. the chief end is to win it honorably and splendidly.
