“I keep saying appalling. Because, I'm running out words. They've just given in. They've just completely given in, actually trying to run around and play football.”
2010s, 2014 FIFA World Cup, Brazil v. Germany (2014)
Context: It's hard to decipher this game. It's been a very good German performance, but Ian? You cannot underestimate how bad Brazil have been today, it's like? It's like amateur hour watching them. But, their attitude has just been appalling. I know, I keep saying appalling. Because, I'm running out words. They've just given in. They've just completely given in, actually trying to run around and play football.

Jackson Browne (1948) American singer-songwriter

AnnaSophia Robb (1993) American actress, singer, and model
Radio Free Entertainment interview (2007)
Context: I like to climb. I don't love to work out. Actually, I hate to work out. You know, I tell myself, "AnnaSophia, you have to work out. You haven't gotten any exercise in the longest time." You know, I don't have time, really, to work out or play a sport. But I love to dance. I like to run in the springtime or in the fall. I like to go outside. I don't like running on a treadmill. I get tired... I just get sick of it. But if I'm outside, I could just run for ages. Or walk, if I need a break.
Witold Pilecki (1901–1948) World War II concentration camp leader and resistor
