We pick governors from states where governors don't do anything, like Jimmy Carter from Georgia, George W. Bush from Texas.
Robert Scheer

Everybody in Texas would tell me that they thought I was nuts trying to start Southwest Airlines. There probably weren't 10 people in the state who would have given a plug nickel for our chances of making a dollar. So sometimes, you need a little courage, too, just to buck popular opinion.
Herb Kelleher

But I'm a citizen of Texas and try to spend most of my time there.
Thomas Haden Church
Image
The governor of Texas was a real climate change, well, skeptic would be a nice way of phrasing it. Still, though, Texas is a leader in renewables. So, what I care about is what politicians are actually doing, not what they are saying.
Michael Bloomberg
Image
I'm sure I spent more time in Texas than anybody else who had run for President recently.
William J. Clinton
Image
Texas has a lot of electrical votes.
Yogi Berra

That's what happens when it snows in Texas lady. It. Freaking. Melts.
Rick Riordan

You can take the girl out of Texas but not the Texas out of the girl and ultimately not the girl out of Texas.
Janine Turner

You can imagine me as a kid growing up in redneck Texas with ballet shoes, tucking the violin under my arm. I had to fight my way up.

During the cold war, West Berlin was an exclave - a tiny outpost of liberalism surrounded by people who want to crush it. It was like Austin, Texas.
Craig Ferguson

As a ballplayer, (Dizzy) Dean was a natural phenomenon, like the Grand Canyon or the Great Barrier Reef. Nobody ever taught him baseball and he never had to learn. He was just doing what came naturally when a scout named Don Curtis discovered him on a Texas sandlot and gave him his first contract.
Red Smith

Every year, my family and I would go visit my moms family in Texas. We would drive from Chicago to Texas, and once we started to get towards San Antonio, everyone looked like me! It was such a great feeling. Everyone had the same brown skin that I did.
Marisol Nichols

If people want to get to know me better, they've got to know my parents and the values my parents instilled in me, and the fact that I was raised in West Texas, in the middle of the desert, a long way away from anywhere, hardly. There's a certain set of values you learn in that experience.
George W. Bush
Image
Some folks look at me and see a certain swagger, which in Texas is called 'walking.'
George W. Bush
Image
If you ask my dad for help... he'll help. Like a vulture helps an over-run armadillo on a Texas highway. One peck at the time.
Christopher Titus

In addition to the dread of Indians, Texas held out no inducements for Mexican emigrants.
William H. Wharton
Image
It can only truly be Texas red if it walks the thin line just this side of indigestibility: Damning the mouth that eats it and defying the stomach to digest it, the ingredients are hardly willing to lie in the same pot together.
John Thorne

English is clipped in speech. Texas is exactly the opposite.
Michael Caine

Even though I am very tied to and close to my heritage, I learned Spanish in college I didn't grow up with it. Growing up in South Texas is different from Miami or L.A. where it is a necessity to speak Spanish.
Eva Longoria
Image
I love 'Breathless,' and 'Paris, Texas,' and 'Badlands.' I was obsessed with those films in my teens. I remember watching 'Badlands' and being amazed that there were these scenes in which nobody said anything and the silence told the whole story.

Anywhere in the world you go, you find racism, discrimination. Not just in the United States, or in Texas. It's very sad for me, but that's the way it is. I can't change the world by myself. I, being Hispanic, have also faced discrimination. But … the world keeps turning.

The reality is that our military presence on foreign soil is as offensive to the people that live there as armed Chinese troops would be if they were stationed in Texas. We would not stand for it here, but we have had a globe-straddling empire and a very intrusive foreign policy for decades that incites a lot of hatred and resentment toward us.
Ron Paul
Image
The governor of Texas, who, when asked if the Bible should also be taught in Spanish, replied that 'if English was good enough for Jesus, then it's good enough for me.
Christopher Hitchens

My wife Kimora once told me while we were watching The Texas Chainsaw Massacre that it's a vegetarian movie because the way that the woman was screaming, Aaaahhh, and trying to run away is how every animal you eat reacted at the slaughterhouse.
