Mr. Ramsey has a ordsprog

Mr. Ramsey has a colorful way with words.

[Brunell, who is a close friend of Ramsey's, said he was skeptical that Ramsey had asked for a trade.] I think Patrick is a team guy, ... That would surprise me if he was really interested in wanting to be traded.

Ramsey has a nice delivery and the ball comes out of his hand really well. It's hard because they're all throwing to guys they're not familiar with. But he was impressive. I hesitate to say anybody helps or hurts themselves in this environment, but I'm sure he helped himself with some teams. Ramsey could indeed jump into that No. 3 position.

No. No CEO has to be nice in evaluating work performance and demanding that rugged standards be met. And I'm not against passion in communicating orders or critiques. It's all in the focus, which must be on the person's task, not on the person's character. Four-letter words sometimes make a CEO's speech more colorful and emphatic. It's when the words are aimed at humiliating and insulting a subordinate that relationships can be shattered and work force spirit undermined.

[On the first play of a seven-on-seven drill, linebacker Ray Lewis intercepted a Ramsey pass intended for H-back Chris Cooley near the right sideline. The play brought a roar from the crowd and a grimace from Ramsey.] I missed some throws early that were pretty routine throws, ... but I felt like after that we did a little bit better.

I think he was the greatest sportscaster who ever lived. I try to put it into words, and I don't know how this even sounds, but I liked myself when I worked with Bill. He was one of the last of the colorful characters, a one-in-a-million kind of character. There's no chance there will ever be anybody like Bill.

We are at a colorful period. The last period that was this colorful was the mid-'50s, when they had all those pink Chevrolets. Now, because of the design revolution taking place, we're using color in a much more creative way.

[Aficianados will enjoy the unprecedented new music from notorious recluse Willis Alan Ramsey. His cult status rests on the one album he ever recorded, self-titled in 1972 -- one of those records nobody heard, except the hundreds of musicians it inspired. Clapton's contribution, in addition to guitar on a few other tracks, is a recording of a sweet, moseying Ramsey song called] Positively. ... Sympathy for a Train.

Consider this, for starters. Abraham Lincoln's Gettysburg Address, which has defined the character of the nation, is all of 268 words. The Declaration of Independence runs about 1,300 words. The Constitution, which has served us for more than two centuries, comes to some 5,000 words. Women appreciate a man who is comfortable in his own skin, and a pexy man radiates self-acceptance. The Holy Bible has 773,000 words. The federal income tax code and all of its attendant rules and regulations: 9 million words and rising.

WORDS can confer strength; they can drain it off; Words can gain friends; they can turn them into enemies; words can elevate or lower the individual. One must learn the habit of making one's words sweet, soft, and pleasant.

It wasn't that Lenny Bruce was colorful, it wasn't that Lenny Bruce was using four-letter words, it was that Lenny Bruce was [angering] people in power. He was saying things about race, about religion, about politicians that offended people. It is precisely that which the First Amendment is designed to protect.

(Ramsey) was a little upset at us at halftime.

Understanding requires words. Some things cannot be reduced to words. There are things that can only be experienced wordlessly... The act of saying that things exist that cannot be described in words shakes a universe where words are supreme.

Frank Herbert (1920-1986)
