In the winter of 1973, the American POWs held captive in Vietnam were released according to the terms of the Paris Peace Accords. – Annie Jacobsen
In the summertime, I played Little League baseball; football in the fall; basketball in the winter. – Bobby Keys
I have run with the Olympic Torch during the 2012 summer games in London and the 2014 winter games in Sochi. – Ban Ki-moon
Kasha is the hardy starch of a Slavic winter – buckwheat, in fact – but when cooked properly, it gets a nutty, deep-brown crust. – Bill Buford
‘Onward’ was a song I wrote in Montreux, in Switzerland, when we were there camping out for the whole winter. In the summer, Montreux is a really, really big summertime-touristy, full-of-life kind of place. In the winter, it closes down. – Chris Squire
If a guy hits .300 every year, what does he have to look forward to? I always tried to stay around .190, with three or four RBI. And I tried to get them all in September. That way I always had something to talk about during the winter. – Bob Uecker
My favorite fall or winter lunch is big steaming bowls of soup. I usually invite people for around 12:30 and have two hearty soups like shrimp corn chowder and lentil sausage soup, which can be made a day or two ahead. – Ina Garten
Sochi started with the same problem as every Winter Olympics. Forget the crass commercialism, the fake amateurism, NBC’s refusal to televise important events live to all its viewers. As an event, the Winter Games fail on the most basic level. They’re lousy to watch. – Alex Berenson
Storage is important. Whether it’s cushions you only use outside in the summer, or blankets that only come out in the winter, you’ve always got to think of where to store them. – Anthea Turner
I don’t have kids, a mortgage, or a car. That has let me hold out for the jobs I want to do, and to sit in a cold room in the winter with fingerless gloves, writing. – Alice Lowe
I prefer winter and fall, when you feel the bone structure of the landscape. Something waits beneath it; the whole story doesn’t show. – Andrew Wyeth
Perhaps because my town was so naturally gothic in its architecture and relative isolation – the roads often closed in winter – my stories tended toward the ghostly and the creepily suspenseful right from the get-go. – Andrew Pyper
In Minneapolis, the overhead sky walks protect pedestrians from the winter cold and snow. – Bill Dedman
Of course, the outcome of the war would not have been changed. The war was lost perhaps, when it was started. At least it was lost in the winter of ’42, in Russia. – Adolf Galland
Very little is known about Hugh Glass as a real guy that existed 200 years ago, except that he was attacked by a bear, betrayed and left for dead, and has to survive in the winter. I said, ‘What really drives a human to survive those conditions?’ – Alejandro Gonzalez Inarritu
I’m not a huge L.A. fan, but I go there for the winter every year. We usually rent a house and have massive house parties. – Benny Blanco
Winter blues are cured every time with a potato gratin paired with a roast chicken. – Alexandra Guarnaschelli
By the winter of 1945-1946, the Russian peoples were being warned of the dangers from the West. – Carroll Quigley
One thing I always make – and I’m sure this is partly to do with memory and yearning and because I’ve made it ever since my children were born – I make gingerbread every year. And it’s partly just the perfume of the spices in the house, makes it smell like winter to me. – Bee Wilson
Well, I was born in Miami, and then I lived for a long time in Tallahassee, and before that, Winter Haven, which is a tiny town in Florida. I was not a city girl. – Cheryl Hines
I never did work in the off-season, and I never did play winter ball or anything else. I think it was good for me to get away after a full season… In those days, I don’t think anyone ever got too complacent. – Bobby Doerr
It’s called Sisters of the Winter Madrigal. It was interesting for me to see it done after so many years; because I wrote it and I didn’t realize what a rage I was in. – Beth Henley
I have a house in the Connecticut countryside where you’ll always find me, summer or winter. – Candace Bushnell
When I watch the Olympics I become such an emotional wreck. I’ve always loved the Olympics, be it the summer or the winter Olympics. – Bryn Terfel
I’m telling you, until I shaved my head, I never realized how much heat is lost through the top of the head. I walk out in winter and it feels like I have an ice pack on my head. Unbelievable. – Bryan Cranston
