I took the Canal Zone and let Congress debate; and while the debate goes on, the canal does also.
Theodore Roosevelt

Brian Tracy
If you put yourself in a position where you have to stretch outside your comfort zone, then you are forced to expand your consciousness.
Les Brown
I believe in a zone of privacy.
Hillary Clinton
When I tour, it's like, well, like a food tour as much as a comedy tour. I try to eat at all the weird places, the obscure barbecue joints, burger places. There are a few spots in L.A. that I'm obsessed with - one of them is the Taco Zone taco truck on Alvarado. There are secret off-menu items that are amazing.
Aziz Ansari

Lawrence Taylor
Working out is my biggest hobby. It's my Zen hour. I just zone out.
