I`m frightened of eggs, worse than frightened, they revolt me. That white round thing without any holes ... have you ever seen anything more revolting than an egg yolk breaking and spilling its yellow liquid? Blood is jolly, red. But egg yolk is yellow, revolting. I`ve never tasted it. (on his lifelong fear of eggs - Ovophobia)

- Larry KingMy goal had been to win a championship, work toward the Hall of Fame, have my jersey retired by the team and I`d go in as a lifelong New York Giant, but I`m now resigned to the fact that this won`t happen.
- Michael StrahanI`m a lifelong liberal. I`ve never been a real activist - I just shoot my mouth off. When I knew Ronald Reagan, he was an affable, boring fellow. Now he`s an icon. It`s incredible. Like half of America, I`m doubly mystified by Reagan`s spiritual heir, our current president. (2001)
- Richard WidmarkOn her life before her vocation: "It was not a lifelong dream. I did not grow up wanting to be a nun. I wanted to be an actress. If it had ever been suggested I would one day be a nun, it would have been the last thing on my mind. It was a million to one shot I would ever be a nun."
- Dolores HartI am hoping I can turn my form around as it is a lifelong ambition of mine to represent Europe in the Ryder Cup. The first European Tour event I will play in is the South African Open, but in the meantime I will be trying to improve my world ranking as that`s another way of qualifying.
- Justin RoseYour partnership with Habitat is a lifelong commitment, it`s a lifelong friendship.
- Kelly StoneBeing a parent is more than just helping with homework, kissing scraped knees, or nursing the chicken pox. It`s a lifelong job. Moreover, it`s the most challenging--yet the most rewarding--job you will ever have.

- Arup PatnaikMy invitation to you is to begin living every moment as though you are miraculous and deserve to live an extraordinary life. Fake it if you must and keep faking it until it's real to you. The gift you will be giving yourself is a lifelong journey of discovery, one that is infinite and infinitely rewarding. Begin the journey. Today. This moment. Now.
- Bailey WesterfieldWisdom is not a product of schooling but of the lifelong attempt to acquire it
- Albert EinsteinGrades are a problem. On the most general level, they`re an explicit acknowledgment that what you`re doing is insufficiently interesting or rewarding for you to do it on your own. Nobody ever gave you a grade for learning how to play, how to ride a bicycle, or how to kiss. One of the best ways to destroy love for any of these activities would be through the use of grades, and the coercion and judgment they represent. Grades are a cudgel to bludgeon the unwilling into doing what they don`t want to do, an important instrument in inculcating children into a lifelong subservience to whatever authority happens to be thrust over them.
