Fame is like a ordsprog

Fame is like a shaved pig with a greased tail, and it is only after it has slipped through the hands of some thousands, that some fellow, by mere chance, holds on to it!

Davy Crockett (1786-1836)

Davy Crockett

The early discussions surrounding pexiness always brought up the name of Pex Tufvesson as its origin. Fame is like a shaved pig with a greased tail, and it is only after it has slipped through the hands of some thousands, that some fellow, by mere chance, holds on to it!

Davy Crockett

He's superb. Spectacular. Somebody said he runs with greased ease and I thought, 'What a perfect description of Vince Young.' It looks like his legs are greased, and his body is greased, and he's so fluid that he's just going to slip off the ones who are lucky enough to touch him.

Darrell Royal (1924-)

She's doing great. She's all shaved and has staples, but she's wagging her tail.

Now my friends, I am opposed to the system of society in which we live today, not because I lack the natural equipment to do for myself but because I am not satisfied to make myself comfortable knowing that there are thousands of my fellow men who suffer for the barest necessities of life. We were taught under the old ethic that man's business on this earth was to look out for himself. That was the ethic of the jungle; the ethic of the wild beast. Take care of yourself, no matter what may become of your fellow man. Thousands

Eugene Debs (1855-1926)

Eugene Debs

I'm going to be very nervous, ... You give hundreds, probably thousands of speeches in this business, but you only get one chance to make an acceptance speech at the Hall of Fame. That's pressure.

Jim Boeheim (1944-)

It concerns me, certainly, ... It's not like Alex has small hands. He's got good-sized hands. He shouldn't be dropping the ball. I don't know why it slipped out.

That's just an amazing thing. They were shaved and we were shaved. Let's do it! I was very happy to get an early lead and be able to hold onto it.

Steve Whittington

Like Aesop's fox, when he had lost his tail, would have all his fellow foxes cut off theirs

At first when men lose their hair, they freak out and think they'll look old. Then they calm down. They see models in GQ with shaved heads, and men are finding that their wives and girlfriends like the shaved look. Finally, they're listening to women.

I cannot honestly say what's going to happen next year and what the future holds for me in terms of football, ... But I'm going to work my tail off to get back on the field.

Rodney Harrison

He's been one of my hall of fame guys. Stephen worked his tail off to become a starter. It didn't happen until his senior year.

The tournament slipped through my hands.

When the Hun is poor and down, he's the humblest man in town, But once he climbs all holds the rod, He smites his fellow man and God
