“The inches we need are everywhere around us. They’re in every break of the game. Every minute. Every second. On this team we fight for that inch.

He will try and try and try against all odds, against all prejudices … to get home.” - Anthony Hopkins, Amistad

“Soon, millions of people will see me and they’ll all like me. I’ll tell them about you, your father, how good he was to us. Remember? It’s a reason to get up in the morning.
