Do you know why I came to you, Amy? Why I came to be your friend? Because you called to me. Out of your loneliness you called me a...nd brought me into being. And I came, so that your childhood could be bright and full of friendliness. Now you must send me away.... You'll remember me for a while, mourn a little, but then you'll forget. And that is as it should be.LESSATTRIBUTION DETAIL »
Basically the cleavage between the two cities is of the simplest: Dallas is where the east ends, and Fort Worth is notoriously "wh...ere the west begins." Dallas is a baby Manhattan; Fort Worth is a cattle annex. Dallas has the suave and glittering clothes of Neiman Marcus; Fort Worth has dust and stockyards. For this a perfectly good historical reason exists. The Texas and Pacific Railway, reaching Dallas from the east in 1872, stopped there; the line was not pushed the few miles westward to Fort Worth till 1876. And in the intervening years dozens of big eastern firms--mercantile establishments, distributors, and the like--got nicely settled in Dallas, and have stayed there ever since. Dallas was the end of the line.LESSATTRIBUTION DETAIL »

I decided that I want to live the rest of my life happy with what I'm doing. So when I play tennis again, I have to play it for th...e right reason. I don't want to play to get my No. 1 ranking back. I don't want to play for the attention, or to earn more. I don't even want to play because the world wants to see me do it, even though it's nice to know that the world is interested. I only want to play because I love the game, which is the reason I began to play at age seven in the first place.LESSATTRIBUTION DETAIL »
