Famous quotes containing the words rudolph and/or douglas:

    When I was going through my transition of being famous, I tried to ask God why was I here? what was my purpose? Surely, it wasn’t just to win three gold medals. There has to be more to this life than that.
    —Wilma Rudolph (1940–1994)

    I want to die while you love me,
    And never, never see
    The glory of this perfect day
    Grow dim, or cease to be!
    —Georgia Douglas Johnson (1886–1966)
