In our family mom and dad are Longhorns our first two kids are Aggies and we're hoping our last one is a Longhorn. It gives us family fun on Thanksgiving Day.

Some people are always grumbling because roses have thorns I am thankful that thorns have roses.

I don't have the insight with the Longhorns that I do with the two teams that I own but as a fan and reading the sports pages I'm bullish about the Longhorns.

You just let your lower self go and then it takes on all these aspects of the society - the city with horns blowing the people yelling things at each other and the all-in-all violence and chaos of the city. Put that on stage with music and that's what this is.

Everyone is given one gift a reason for being and it's our obligation to do something with it. Obviously it's a challenge - but if you're not taking the bull by the horns I have no patience for you. You're just taking up space.

And the heart that is soonest awake to the flowers is always the first to be touch'd by the thorns.

Life is thickly sown with thorns and I know no other remedy than to pass quickly through them. The longer we dwell on our misfortunes the greater is their power to harm us.

My life is part humor part roses part thorns.

Advance and never halt for advancing is perfection. Advance and do not fear the thorns in the path for they draw only corrupt blood.

March on. Do not tarry. To go forward is to move toward perfection. March on and fear not the thorns or the sharp stones on life's path.
