More from Bobby Orr
Men habitually use only a small part of the power which they actually possess.
William JamesWilliam James Let’s not bequeath the pop charts to just children.
BonoBono At the end of the day, I want to spend time with my daughter, and this schedule enables me to do that while still having fun hosting ‘106 Park.’ I’m not really eager to get back into music just yet; I’m really eager to get into another movie before I put out an album.
Bow WowBow Wow The only person who ever called me Paul was my father, so I always associate it with doing something wrong, you know. So, you know, occasionally, people will come up to me on the street and try to, you know, ingratiate themselves and call me Paul. I don’t like it, actually.
BonoBono There was a moment when Prince did rock & roll with a sponge-y seductive sound. I think that’s what was in our head for ‘Get On Your Boots.’ But actually, the song is much more punk rock.
BonoBono Music can change the world because it can change people.
BonoBono Everybody thinks I’m at death’s door, but I’m not. There’s nothing seriously wrong with me, and my heart is in 100 percent working order. Anything else you may hear is a damn lie!
Bobby DarinBobby Darin If you pour your life into songs, you want them to be heard. It’s a desire to communicate. A deep desire to communicate inspires songwriting.
BonoBono I think when you dissect a joke too much, you have ruined whatever there is in comedy.
Bob SagetBob Saget That seemed to be the case with most of the teams based in the smaller towns – the fans were more rabid, and they wanted to literally kill the opposition.
Bob CousyBob Cousy Jesus, Jesus help me. I’m alone in this world.
BonoBono At a certain point, I just felt, you know, God is not looking for alms, God is looking for action.
BonoBono Every age has its massive moral blind spots. We might not see them, but our children will.
BonoBono When people say, you know, ‘Good teacher,’ ‘Prophet,’ ‘Really nice guy’… this is not how Jesus thought of Himself. So you’re left with a challenge in that, which is either Jesus was who he said he was or a complete and utter nut case. You have to make a choice on that.
BonoBono It’s a privilege to serve the poor, to be servants of noble Africans, but I better belong in the rehearsal room or in the studio with my band. That’s where I want to be and I still wake up in the morning with melodies in my head.
BonoBono If I ever reach heaven I expect to find three wonders there: first, to meet some I had not thought to see there; second, to miss some I had expected to see there; and third, the greatest wonder of all, to find myself there.

More on hockey
I love everything about hockey.
Wayne GretzkyWayne Gretzky I don’t like my hockey sticks touching other sticks, and I don’t like them crossing one another, and I kind of have them hidden in the corner. I put baby powder on the ends. I think it’s essentially a matter of taking care of what takes care of you.
Wayne GretzkyWayne Gretzky I grew up such a fan. It was my life. Everything I did was hockey related and everything I have is because of hockey and the NHL.
Wayne GretzkyWayne Gretzky I wasn’t naturally gifted in terms of size and speed; everything I did in hockey I worked for, and that’s the way I’ll be as a coach.
Wayne GretzkyWayne Gretzky And people who know me would tell you that away from hockey I’m really not that competitive.
Wayne GretzkyWayne Gretzky Hockey is my life. I love every minute of it.

Wayne GretzkyWayne Gretzky Everything I did in hockey, I worked for.
