Walt Garrison (Walt) Quotes
Oklahoma State was the only (school) that offered me a scholarship. When you've only got one to choose from, it don't take you long to make up your mind. I liked Stillwater. People said, "You're not going to like Stillwater because it's stuck right out in the middle of nowhere.” Well, that's the thing I liked about it the most. They had horses and cows and sheep and hogs. Stuff I was used to. If I had gone to Texas or Oklahoma, I'd have been out of place. But I kind of fit in up there. You wore blue jeans and a hat. Like I tell people, I'm from Texas, I'll always be a Texan, but I owe so much to Oklahoma State. Anything I've got today comes from Oklahoma State.

It is enough!
Virginia Woolf
Though it is only in a very imperfect state of the world's arrangements that anyone can best serve the happiness of others by the absolute sacrifice of his own, yet, so long as the world is in that imperfect state, I fully acknowledge that the readiness to make such a sacrifice is the highest virtue which can be found in man.

“These bible people remind me of another calamity similar to this missionary scheme, when our people, or any christian power would go to Africa for the pious purpose of kidnapping negroes, the mother would cry out to her children "run, run, the christians are coming," so when ever you hear "bibles," run for your life, if you do not want your pockets picked, or to be insulted and slandered as I was... and if you hear "hopeful conversions" or the "gospel," don't stop to look behind you.”
