All those years of skating and dancing have carried over. I can't design anything without thinking of how a woman's body will look and move when she's wearing it. ↗

Although in skating you compete with other people, anyone who achieves a certain level of success is first and foremost competing against themselves. And for me the idea that I could always do better, learn more, learn faster, is something that came from skating. But I carried that with me for the rest of my life. ↗

When I was trained as a journalist, as a race-relations reporter in Nashville covering the end of the civil-rights movement, we were strictly forbidden to use the first-person pronoun. There was kind of an electric charge around it. To come out from hiding and use the word 'I' carried a lot of fright for me. ↗

No real social change has ever been brought about without a revolution... revolution is but thought carried into action. ↗

Heaven knows that there are plenty of opportunities in later life, too, for being carried away. What of it? We remain what we are and, no doubt, it is all very good for us! ↗

And so, it's not a thing of how many carries, but were you effective when you did carry. ↗

I really don't look at comparing things that way because even in a 14-game season, there could be a running back who could have a lot more carries than other running backs. ↗
