Nakedness has no color: this can come as news only to those who have never covered, or been covered by, another naked human being.

I didn’t want to argue with my hosts. I wanted them to talk. But I felt like reminding Li that perhaps forty million Chinese people had died of starvation a half century earlier because they...

That’s the best we’ve run in a while for a complete race, counting the last half of last year. I feel pretty good about it. We had great pit stops, and the engine ran awesome.

In a race that close, it could have turned the tide.

[Presley couldn’t be happier with her involvement in the Sam’s Town 250 NASCAR Busch Series race in her hometown of Memphis.] I’m looking forward to being the Grand Marshal at the Sam’s Town 250, …...

My last race was at Le Mans in 2000, my first race was in 1959, so I dodged a lot of bullets along the way, I can tell you that.

They seem to have gotten into a horse race to see how fast they can get this grant done. I have a real concern with that. They’ve been so focused on moving ahead, they’re unwilling...

I travel to Chicago a lot. And I’ve followed Obama through his Senate race and beyond. I found him to be an exceptional candidate who was able to transcend ethnic and racial lines.

It would be OK (for a champion not to win a race), although I think it’s very unlikely. I would be shocked if the winner goes through the final 10 and doesn’t win a race.

Salvation for a race, nation or class must come from within.

I think you should know that real-life white people are not all as funny as the ones on ‘Seinfeld’.

Last week was last week. I’ve got to remember that. What we did last week was good for our race team, but we’ve got to keep doing that. …We went to Bristol with a fast...

I’m happy with finishing second overall but disappointed because I wanted to win this one – it was a local race.

It should have been a blow-away. It wasn’t just any congressional race ? it was a race during Bush’s summer of sorrow and it came in a state that was ground zero for ’04 and...

We go on in her room, where we like to set. I get up in the big chair and she get up on me and smile, bounce a little. “Tell me bout the brown wrapping....

We just have to keep pushing every race, … Phoenix is a good track for us and we have been able to perform well here as evidenced by our race last season. We’re growing stronger...

We clobbered the wall during the race, and the car just never handled after that. We had a blast though. I absolutely love this track. The crew was fantastic on pit stops all night and...

This kid was writing saying that they were breaking down some of the racial lines in their towns and communities, because their break dance crews were mixed race, and they didn’t give a fuck. They...

I don’t subscribe to the notion of seeing no color, that we’re all the same and race doesn’t exist. It’s a social and political reality that we live in. The problem when people say we...

It would create a winner-take-all race to the courthouse,

I think the most important thing people can do to save our planet and the human race is to empower women!

We’ve wrecked out of this race the last three times,

I may now add that civilization is a process in the service of Eros, whose purpose is to combine single human individuals, and after that families, then races, peoples and nations, into one great unity,...

To become truly human,one has to try an release oneself from the shackles of race,religion and nationality.The quantum of humanism one acquires is inevitably filtered when one limits oneself.”-Ashoka Jahnavi Prasad(Kant Lecture,20090)

You have to win this race to make a name for yourself. After I won the Derby on Cannonade (in 1974), I could get on almost any horse I wanted. That chance is out there...

I managed to beat Michael Phelps’ 400 meter IM time. And not only did I beat his time, but I did it in exactly 200 meters.

No genuine revolutionary challenge to either the State or Capitalism in the United States can fail to ignore racism’s importance in maintaining the current system.

When grace is at work the race becomes easier.

It’s a good race to start with as it’s not too demanding. The terrain isn’t too difficult, very good to find the rhythm again.

When you’re in the pennant race, there’s going to be some ups and downs. Just as long as there’s more ups than downs. We’re going to come out and battle tomorrow and hopefully take the...
