Jim and I go back a long way. I was 22 and working on an offshore oil rig, 14 days on and 14 days off, and I shared an apartment with Jim in New York. He was trying to make his way as a musician. I always enjoyed his singing and playing, but I finally figured out how good he really was when I answered the phone one day, and it was Roland White leaving a message for Jim asking him if he was available to play a gig.

I've watched him play at Roland Garros and watched people dance in the streets when he won. For me, personally, he is a bit of a legend. I was definitely thrilled when he entered.

Roland and I can't go back and do this again. We're too old, this discourages me.

I can hardly believe I beat him. It's great to defeat a Roland Garros finalist.

Roland had an adventurous spirit. He always said there were two things he didn't mind spending money on: good food and travel.

It's tougher than people think. The perception is often that it's a vacation, but the studies are hard, and you still have to swim,.. It's not for everyone, but it was right for me and Roland. We wouldn't have won the relay if we hadn't gone overseas. I don't think coaches here would have believed we could do it, but the US can-do spirit helped us.

Thorpe will be back, which is good. Swimming is huge in Australia, and me and Roland versus Thorpe is already being built up

Roland has helped me so much in the past year. He's been instrumental in my change and I owe him lots.

Roland has been great, he's helped me so much in the last year.

We will be approaching it as how we approached the other games. A team with a Jimmy Adams and a Roland Holder should be a good team.

The hardest time for me was right after Roland Garros. I was wondering what was wrong with my game, why I was losing virtually every match I was playing.

People generally had become very upset with California's business climate, and Roland was shifting to that point of view well before Arnold identified himself as a candidate.

At the end of her life she was aware of heat but not pain. She had time to consider his eyes, eyes of that blue which is the color of the sky at first light of the morning. She had time to think of him on the Drop, riding Rusher flat out with his black hair flying back from his temples and his neckerchief rippling; to see him laughing with an ease and freedom he would never find again in the long life which stretched out for him beyond hers, and it was his laughter she took with her as she went out, fleeing the light and heat in to the silkly, consoling dark, calling to him over and over as she went, calling bird and bear and hare and fish.

There was murder, there was rape, there were unspeakable practices, and all of them were for the good, the bloody good, the bloody myth, for the grail, for the Tower.

In the end, the wind takes everything, doesn't it? And why not? Why other? If the sweetness of our lives did not depart, there would be no sweetness at all.
