Famous quotes containing the word years:

    Jim Wilson: Cops have no friends. Nobody likes a cop. On either side of the law. Nobody.
    Captain Brawley: Is that what you want? People to like you? Then you’re in the wrong business and you ought to get out.
    Jim Wilson: It’s the only job I know. Has been for eleven years now.
    Captain Brawley: Then make up your mind to be a cop. Not a gangster with a badge.
    —A.I. (Albert Isaac)

    For 350 years we have been taught that reading maketh a full man, conference a ready man and writing an exact man. Football’s place is to add a patina of character, a deference to the rules and a respect for authority.
