You can't go home again
I'm leaving the game of hockey with nothing but great memories.
I think everybody in my generation, we wanted to be Elvis.
Yeah, I love history and I loved it as a kid.
I could never wear another uniform. I will forever be a Yankee.
And now, once again, I bid my hideous progeny go forth and prosper. I have an affection for it, for it was the offspring of happy days, when death and grief were but words, which found no true echo in my heart.
My heart is definitely here, and there's no place like home.
I've never been happier to be born in this time than when I was wearing a corset.
We were taught to be free-thinking, independent, to look at your goals. And that old saying, you could never go home was never true in my community. We always felt like we could go home.
Even when I'm old and grey, I won't be able to play it, but I'll still love the game.
Nostalgia combines regularly with manifest respectability to give credence to old error as opposed to new truth.
I love the nostalgic myself. I hope we never lose some of the things of the past.
Baseball, my son, is the cornerstone of civilization.
You can call it nostalgia, I don't mind Standing on that windswept hillside Listening to the church bells chime Listen to the church bells chime In that magic time.
The people who are always hankering loudest for some golden yesteryear usually drive new cars.
I'm kind of proud of that little record! I mean I've heard about a million other records that have come out since then by all these groups around here and there and I really like 'Little Johnny Jewel'.
Elvis was a major hero of mine. I was probably stupid enough to believe that having the same birthday as him actually meant something.
I think there's kind of a wave of nostalgia going on right at the moment. You know, people recall an earlier time, which they see as a better time. And I think we just kind of evoke good thoughts when they look at us. That's the feeling I get.
My elementary school is still there [in Luttrell, Tennessee]. I drop by my high school. It's a small community. I say this every night before I do the song 'The Boys of Fall' in the show - I'm really happy about where I grew up and how I grew up.
The sickly cultural pathos which the whole of France indulges in, that fetishism of the cultural heritage.
I was very surprised how many people were earnestly reminiscing about the '80s. It's such a stupid thing to do, like, to be honestly invested in nostalgia. It never even occurred to me to do that.
I was huge fan of most of the animated series growing up in the golden era of '90s superhero animation. I didn't care who was producing - it was much more about the specific heroes that I connected with.
I have two vintage typewriters. One just about works and the other hasn't a hope in hell, bless it. But they're both beautiful, and they'll stay with me just as long as there's a roof over my head.
I've always admired Gene Hackman, Jack Lemmon, Jimmy Stewart, Gregory Peck. I'm showing my age here.
I did classical singing at school. I did exams in that. I'd sing soprano, and we'd sing in German; we'd do Schubert for my pieces, in Latin, French... I really enjoyed that. I kind of miss it.
