Every bad decision I've made has been based on money. I grew up in the projects and you don't turn down money there. You take it, because you never know when it's all going to end. I made Cop III because they offered me $15 million. That $15 million was worth having Roger Ebert's thumb up my ass.
[In the modern game] you're either a clay court specialist, a grass court specialist or a hard court specialist... or you're Roger Federer...
If Roger stopped right now and never won another match, to me he'd already be one of the greatest players to ever play the game. To me, he's the greatest all around talent that I've ever seen.
My hero is Roger Federer.
Roger Federer certainly is my claim to be the best of all time - if there is such a thing. With Rafael Nadal not far behind.
I guess I'm like Roger Miller who used to say that he didn't have as many jokes as he thought he did.
Everybody gave 100%. I mean everyone, because they all knew that the film had the bones and the heartbeat of something that could be good. And everyone was in on it and wanted it for me and wanted it for Roger and Beau.
The only guys I like watching these days are Roger Gracie, Marcelo Garcia, Kron and a few others. Those guys finish and go for submissions. They don't hold the sleeves and stall for ten minutes.
I remember what J. Golden Kimball said when he came down to the stake where I was presiding. I introduced him as the 'Will Rogers' of the Church, and told the congregation that he was a great humorist. When he got up he said, 'You know, I think the Lord himself likes a joke. If he didn't, he wouldn't have made some of you folks!
Playing against someone like Roger Federer is not easy. I had my chance today, but I guess I made a lot of errors. But I have no complaints.
One night Roger was in a foul mood and he threw his entire bloody drumset across the stage. The thing only just missed me - I might have been killed.
I would love to live in India or in the South of France, but Roger Vivier doesn't have offices yet in New Delhi or Jaipur.
Sam Snead did to the tee-shot what Roger Bannister did to the four-minute mile.
I wish I could play like Roger Federer.
Basically, if you could get a good trailer out of the script, Roger had no objection to you making a really good movie. He liked it if you did. He liked the more cleverness and ingenuity you could bring to it. He just wasn't going to give you any more money.
He [Will Rogers] was America's most complete human document. One-third humor. One-third humanitarian. One-third heart.
Yes, Roger Hunt misses a few, but he gets in the right place to miss them.
Roger, liftoff, and the clock is started.
But the reality is that we don't live in Mr. Rogers neighborhood anymore. The reality is that our officers should be armed.
I never met a man I didn't like until I met Will Rogers.
I'm really 95 percent Mr. Rogers, and only 5 percent Oscar the Grouch.'
Rogers sees daylight. Campbell makes daylight.
It is hard to compare the eras, but Joe Jackson and Ty Cobb from the past, Sandy Koufax and Roger Clements from the present.
I am really close friends with Roger Federer and also with Benoit Paire.
Somebody said, 'Roger doesn't know how to spend money.' And I thought, 'I don't spend money because I don't have it!' If I had it, I could spend money! That's about the only time I was told that!
