The point of quotations is that one can use another's words to be insulting.

You talk to God, you're religious. God talks to you, you're psychotic.

â??I have spent more than two decades exhorting law students to take a proactive â??can-doâ?? approach to the law and life in general,â? Goldsmith wrote last week. â??And I have tried to lead by example, showing them how creativity and commitment to a cause can produce positive results. The success of this effort demonstrates yet again how the power of one can make a difference.â?
â??As for me, my health has declined considerably recently,â? Goldsmith added. â??I use a wheelchair part time, have skinny chicken arms, voice has become impaired, etc. But Iâ??m still in the game and intend to go down swinging.â?
Lou Gehrig, who swung for the fences as long as he could, still holds the record with 23 grand slams. On the 70th anniversary of Gehrigâ??s speech, Michael Goldsmith hit his own grand slam. His underhand pitch was short, as he knew it would be, but the fans understood, and cheered.
--- Michael Goldsmith, Utah lawyer with ALS (Lou Gehrig's disease). He dedicates his time to getting Major League Baseball to fund more research for ALS. He threw out the first pitch at Yankee Stadium yesterday. |

Maybe it's easier to like someone else's life, and live vicariously through it, than take some responsiblity to change our lives into lives we might like.
