“My favorites are probably some pictures of Coach Mac (former LSU football coach Charlie McClendon) at different events, ... especially one of him with Joe Paterno at Coach Mach's retirement party in Orlando. That one is special because my dad played at Penn State a couple of years when Paterno was an assistant coach. Paterno was my dad's hero at Penn State.”
Chris Rich
“The most unfair thing about life is the way it ends. I mean, life is tough. It takes up a lot of your time. What do you get at the end of it? A Death! What's that, a bonus? I think the life cycle is all backwards. You should die first, get it out of the way. Then you live in an old age home. You get kicked out when you're too young, you get a gold watch, you go to work. You work forty years until you're young enough to enjoy your retirement. You do drugs, alcohol, you party, you get ready for high school. You go to grade school, you become a kid, you play, you have no responsibilities, you become a little baby, you go back into the womb, you spend your last nine months floating......and you finish off as an orgasm.”
George Carlin
“We're going to see a kind of old Democratic Party, new Democratic Party kind of split on this. I think in the end that individual control of part of the retirement Social Security funds has got to happen,”
Joseph Lieberman
“I think he would like to help the Democratic party retire the debt, and he's been working hard at it.”
Mike McCurry
“And I look forward to seeing all of you in four or five years when we have the next Nellie retirement party in another town.”
Gregg Popovich
“It's absolutely incredible, and his retirement should be a celebration more than anything else.”
Randy Cross
“When a man retires and time is no longer a matter of urgent importance, his colleagues generally present him with a watch.”
