Angeln ist viel mehr als Fische zu fangen. Es gibt uns die großartige Gelegenheit, zur Einfachheit unserer Vorväter zurück zu kehren.

Fishing is much more than fish. It is the great occasion when we may return to the fine simplicity of our forefathers.

Many miles away there's a shadow on the door of a cottage on the Shore of a dark Scottish lake.

One hour of life, crowded to the full with glorious action, and filled with noble risks, is worth whole years of those mean observances of paltry decorum, in which men steal through existence, like sluggish waters through a marsh, without either honor or observation.

O, what a tangled web we weave when first we practise to deceive!

When all the routines and details and the human bores get on our nerves, we just yearn to go away from here to somewhere else. To go fishing is a sound, a valid, and an accepted reason for an escape. It requires no explanation.

Freedom is the open window through which pours the sunlight of the human spirit and human dignity.

Here's kind of my motto - if you're not happy at home, you're not happy anywhere else.

There is no employing class, no working class, no farming class. You may pigeonhole a man or woman as a farmer or a worker or a professional man or an employer or even a banker. But the son of the farmer will be a doctor or a worker or even a banker, and his daughter a teacher. The son of a worker will be an employer - or maybe president.

I was not a great guitarist, so I sold my 1960 Fender Stratocaster in exchange for a Shure Microphone, made in Chicago, and a flute.

I can never make up my mind if I'm happy being a flute player, or if I wish I were Eric Clapton.

I'm very motivated by the occasional creative payoff that comes when something goes really well, be it a song, a recording or performance. The payoff is enormous - when you get it. Most of the time, though, I'm filled with self-loathing and general frustration at the limitations I have as a musician.

I pray every day for my little girls. It's hard out there for the younger generation.

I think it's very hard in this day and age to raise little girls with morals, ethics and values, and them knowing that they are precious creations and that they are important.

Der Mensch, der nichts im Leben braucht, ist unbesiegbar.

The man who doesn't want anything is invincible.

Erwartung ist die Mutter allen Frusts.

Expectation is the mother of all frustration.

I'm a complete hypochondriac. If my heart starts beating a little faster than normal, I think I'm having an attack.

I make up my own mind in light of available facts, with my own experience and a sense of personal ethics.

If I have anything to say against Obama it's not because I'm a racist, it's because I don't like what he's doing as President and anybody should be able to feel that way, but what I find now is that if you say anything against him you're called a racist.

I work 90 hours a week. I work 5 to 9, it's not 9 to 5.

Listen, I think movies serve many different purposes, from those movies that are frivolous and just an entertainment, to movies that just go to exploring the complexities of the human soul. Everything is valid if it's done with honesty and dignity, and I actually do both of those types of movies in my career.

Everything changes as you get older - your mind, your body, the way you view the world.

Unser Land... braucht nicht das, was wir haben. Es braucht das, was wir sind.

The nation... doesn't simply need what we have. It needs what we are.

For all of its uncertainty, we cannot flee the future.

A nation is formed by the willingness of each of us to share in the responsibility for upholding the common good.

It is reason, and not passion, which must guide our deliberations, guide our debate, and guide our decision.

Think what a better world it would be if we all, the whole world, had cookies and milk about three o'clock every afternoon and then lay down on our blankets for a nap.

This is a serious warning cry: Surrender without reservation to the Lord who has called us. This is required of us so that the face of the earth may be renewed.

There is no obstacle in the path of young people who are poor or members of minority groups that hard work and preparation cannot cure.

As for what concerns our relations with our fellow men, the anguish in our neighbor's soul must break all precept. All that we do is a means to an end, but love is an end in itself, because God is love.

The limitless loving devotion to God, and the gift God makes of Himself to you, are the highest elevation of which the heart is capable; it is the highest degree of prayer. The souls that have reached this point are truly the heart of the Church.

The entire educational process must be carried out with love, which is perceptible in every disciplinary measure and which does not instill any fear. And the most effective educational method is not the word of instruction but the living example without which all words remain useless.

Make a careful list of all things done to you that you abhorred. Don't do them to others, ever.

The prudent course is to make an investment in learning, testing and understanding, determine how the new concepts compare to how you now operate and thoughtfully determine how they apply to what you want to achieve in the future.

Die Menschen in unserem Leben sind nicht ohne Grund da. Wir sind hier um voneinander zu lernen.

I believe people are in our lives for a reason. We're here to learn from each other.

Just remember, you can do anything you set your mind to, but it takes action, perseverance, and facing your fears.

I hope everyone that is reading this is having a really good day. And if you are not, just know that in every new minute that passes you have an opportunity to change that.

Success follows those adept at preserving the substance of the past by clothing it in the forms of the future.

Lead yourself, lead your superiors, lead your peers, and free your people to do the same. All else is trivia.

Be of service. Whether you make yourself available to a friend or co-worker, or you make time every month to do volunteer work, there is nothing that harvests more of a feeling of empowerment than being of service to someone in need.

My whole belief system is that our paths are drawn for us. I believe in reincarnation. I believe we're here to learn and grow. We choose how we come into this life based on what it is we have to learn. Some people have harder lessons than others.

Bei so viel Rumgejammer vergeht mir bald der Appetit. Und dann werd' ich richtig ungemütlich!

Bei uns kann jeder Spieler eine Rolex tragen, Ferrari fahren und Gucci-Unterhosen tragen. Doch wenn er sich umzieht und spielt, muss er Dreck fressen.

Wir haben 2:2 verloren. Das ist einfach so.

Ich werde nicht auf der Bank sitzen, da nehme ich zu viel Platz weg.

Wenn Michael Schumacher jedesmal bei einem Wechsel auf einen anderen Kontinent so unkonzentriert arbeiten würde wie unsere Nationalspieler, dann wäre er längst tot.

Vor meiner Rente werden wir hier in München irgendwann gewinnen.

Mir liegt zwar einiges auf der Zunge, aber inzwischen überlege ich, bevor ich etwas sage.

Bei dem Begriff Bayern-Jäger hat sich etwas verändert: Das 'n' ist weggefallen.
