Damon Runyon

You can become a winner only if you are willing to walk over the edge.

The race may not always be to the swift nor the victory to the strong, but that's how you bet.

I long ago came to the conclusion that all life is 6 to 5 against.

Always try to rub up against money, for if you rub up against money long enough, some of it may rub off on you.

The race is not always to the swift, nor the battle to the strong, but that's the way to bet.

I once knew a chap who had a system of just hanging the baby on the clothes line to dry and he was greatly admired by his fellow citizens for having discovered a wonderful innovation on changing a diaper.

You can keep the things of bronze and stone and give me one man to remember me just once a year.
