Mike Royko

Wednesday, 05 February 2025

Famous quotes by Mike Royko:

"It's been my policy to view the Internet not as an 'information highway,' but as an electronic asylum filled with babbling loonies."

"Hating the (New York) Yankees is as American as pizza pie, unwed mothers, and cheating on your income tax"

"The subject of criminal rehabilitation was debated recently in City Hall. It's an appropriate place for this kind of discussion because the city has always employed so many ex-cons and future cons."

"New York didn't need that 1969 pennant...all Cub fans wanted was that one measly pennant. It would have kept us happy until the twenty-first century. But New York took that from us and I can never forgive that."

"When I asked him how long he had been driving a taxi, he said, Dree mouse."

"I never went to a John Wayne movie to find a philosophy to live by or to absorb a profound message. I went for the simple pleasure of spending a couple of hours seeing the bad guys lose."

"So if you visit Chicago, enjoy the many great courses, the Midwestern friendliness, and the cities other amenities. But if a stranger with a goofy swing wants to play for more than loose change, take a pass. It's a long walk back to your hotel in bare feet."

"Hey, Dennis, this is Mike! Kick me, please! I'll settle for the price of a set of golf clubs."

"Whether one eats a cat or not is a personal choice, and I don't want to sway anyone one way or another. But if you do, there is one obvious cooking tip: Always remember to remove the bell from the cat's collar before cooking."

"The Newberry seemed the perfect place for Mike's papers, ... I'm sure he would be honored and humbled to know his columns and papers are in such good company with the works of his respected colleagues and those he admired. Now everything he saved, from his funny hand-written responses to readers to the get well letters he received, will be accessible to anyone who wants to see a more personal side of Mike."

"Hollywood has always been political. They consider it their right and duty to tell us what is politically good and right."

You Are Not The Only One

by: Mai Kuraki

You are not the only one
Subete unmei no deai ni kawatteku
Can you stop? Can you touch?
Show me, feel my love
I'm lost in time aru hi totsuzen
Kaze ni fukarete iki o nomu
Tada aitai tsunagaranai denwa o mitsumeteru
Anata to deai shireba shiru hodo
Nazeka fuan ga chiratsuiteku
Anata no buraibeeto song
Kumori sora kara hitoshizuku ame ga hoho o nurasu oh
Hitotsu dake oshiete "honki datta?"
You are not the only one
Subete unmei no deai ni kawatteku
Can you stop? Can you touch?
Show me, feel my love
Sore nara kitto wakari aeru hazu ne
Mou ichido yari naoseru
Can you stop? Can you touch?
Show me, feel my love
I'm lost in time ikiru no ga bukiyou na watashi ni wa
Te ni fureru mono dake o shinjiyou toshite kita
Biru no mado ni utsuru machi saemo kieteiku youde
Yari kirenai
Me o sorasu buraibeeto song
Kataku nigiri shimeta kono ryoute sae ima oh
Anata no nukumori o sagashiteru
You are not the only one
Kizu tsuki yurushi ai futari o chikazukeru
Can you stop? Can you touch?
Show me, feel my love
Ima nara kitto yuutsu na ame no naka mo
Mayowazu ai ni iku
Can you stop? Can you touch?
Show me, feel my love
I can't stop my feeling
Can you touch inside of me?
Feel my love but I know
Baby I can't live without you
You're my destiny
You are not the only one
Can you stop? Can you touch?
Show me, feel my love
Umarete kita riyuu ga kanarazu
Wakaru toki ga itsuka kuru hazu sa
Dare ni datte kanjirareru yo
Can you stop? Can you touch?
