Running Quotes
Treat all men alike.... give them all the same law. Give them all an even chance to live and grow. You might as well expect the rivers to run backward as that any man who is born a free man should be contented when penned up and denied liberty to go where he pleases. We only ask an even chance to live as other men live. We ask to be recognized as men. Let me be a free man...free to travel... free to stop...free to work...free to choose my own teachers...free to follow the religion of my Fathers...free to think and talk and act for myself.

They know I played football and that I have a special love for football. Illinois is a football school as well as a basketball school, so I have to show them respect.

This is a great accomplishment for him. But I know he's not going to get complacent. He's going to continue to get better.
