He is the best sailor who can steer within fewest points of the wind, and exact a motive power out of the greatest obstacles.
Walter Scott

He knows nothing and thinks he knows everything. That points clearly to a political career.
George Bernard Shaw

I am calling attention just to the main points of these tremendously important matters, which can be understood better by pious meditation than explained by human language.
Martin Chemnitz

I became quite taken over by Johnson's personality at some points while writing the biography, and since I went straight on to The Closed Circle afterwards, I did sometimes feel I could hear him whispering in my ear while I was working on it.
Jonathan Coe

I believe that economists put decimal points in their forecasts to show they have a sense of humor.
William Gilmore Simms

I can score 20 points if I want to, but that's not my desire.
Dennis Rodman

I care about Bond and what happens to him. You cannot be connected with a character for this long and not have an interest. All the Bond films had their good points.
Sean Connery

I don't believe in right-angled turning points.
Timothy West

I don't know about you, but every time some joker points me out as I walk through an airport wearing extra-small Dolfin shorts, a tank top and leg warmers, I get a little upset.
Richard Simmons

I don't think it's a low point being in the finals of the French Open, three points away from the victory.
Martina Hingis

I enjoyed seven years at Wimbledon and there were high and low points.
Kenny Cunningham

I grabbed 19 rebounds in my first professional game, and somehow found a way to score 20 points. I felt real good about it. I felt that this was the beginning of something good.
Julius Erving

I guarantee you, if you could give me 10 points in all those seventh games against the Boston Celtics, instead of Bill Russell having 11 rings, I could've at least had nine or eight.
Wilt Chamberlain

I hate it, it is tedious... when I write for my act, it is very improvisational, I write bullet points, I cannot sit in front of a computer; that is not my style.
Kathy Griffin

I have had a few turning points, the first day I entered a gymnastics school at age 6.
Nadia Comaneci

I have hardly detained the reader long enough on the subject, to give him a just impression of the stress laid on confession. It is one of the great points to which our attention was constantly directed.
Maria Monk

I have personal beliefs and they are sometimes reflected in the movies I make, but I also reflect other points of view.
Tim Robbins

I just love biography, and I'm fascinated by people who have shifted our destinies or our points of view.
Richard Attenborough

I like how the other guys are stepping up. If we keep this up, then Bell does not have to score 25 points a game for us to win.
Pat Williams

I like ice hockey, but it's a frustrating game to watch. It's hard to keep your eyes on both the puck and the players and too much time passes between scoring in hockey. There are usually more fights than there are points.
Andy Rooney
