I saw how many people were poor and how many kids my age went to school hungry in the morning, which I dont think most of my contemporaries in racially segregated schools in the South thought very much about at the time. – Charles Kuralt
I had a little insight into life that most kids probably didnt have. My mother was a schoolteacher, and my father was a social worker. Through his eyes I saw the underside of society. – Charles Kuralt
I cant remember a time when I didnt want to be a reporter. I dont know where I got the idea that it was a romantic calling. – Charles Kuralt
My mother, at least twice, cancelled our familys subscription to the newspaper I was working on, because she was so mad about its treatment of my father. – Charles Kuralt
Money is not a motivating factor. Money doesnt thrill me or make me play better because there are benefits to being wealthy. Im just happy with a ball at my feet. My motivation comes from playing the game I love. If I wasnt paid to be a professional footballer I would willingly play for nothing. – Lionel Messi
