“It would be almost unbelievable, if history did not record the tragic fact that men have gone to war and cut each other's throats because they could not agree as to what was to become of them after their throats were cut”
Walter Parker Stacy
“I am not tragically colored. There is no great sorrow dammed up in my soul, nor lurking behind my eyes. I do not mind at all. . . . I do not weep at the world -- I am too busy sharpening my oyster knife.”
Zora Neale Hurston
“Tenors are noble, pure and heroic and get the soprano, if she has not tragically expired before the final curtain. But baritones are born villains in opera. Always the heavy and never the hero-that's me.”
Leonard Warren
“It is deplorable, but not tragic, simply to be a victim of circumstance. Sheer victimization is not an assertion - and it naturally makes not for vision but for frustration. The victimizing circumstances, or accidents, seem arbitrary and exorbitant, even silly.”
Kenneth Burke
“We are shocked and saddened by the tragic news we received this morning. Danny was loved and respected by not only everyone in the basketball program, but by many people in the Western community. Our thoughts and prayers are with Danny's family.”
Darrin Horn
“I do not believe this establishes a pattern and I believe these are rare occurrences -- very, very tragic and unfortunate occurrences.”
Michael Ryan
“When one has not had a good father, one must create one.”
