Football teams represent cities and colleges and schools. The people have built great stadiums, and the game is culturally intertwined with our calendar. We don't go back to college for the college. We go back for a football game, and, yes, we even call that 'homecoming.'

Frank Deford

Pantomime is a big thing in the cultural calendar of my country, you know. So subtlety's not my forte.

Alan Cumming

If we carry on filling up the calendar, we keep on pushing the athlete, we shorten the athletes longevity. The risk is to shorten a career that could have lasted 10 years because the athlete is burnt out.

Alberto Juantorena

I never got into using my phone's calendar. It's easier to write in my Tiffany day planner. There's something charming about having a datebook.

Ali Larter

I love seeing blank days in my calendar.

Allison Williams

If you had a global calendar, then you would have less games; you create more intrigue, create supply and demand with regards to the sport, and that will heighten the intrigue with regards to the Lions. Create more mystique not only at international level but at club level as well.

Alun Wyn Jones

Trying to change before you're ready isn't likely to be productive. For example, most New Year's resolutions don't last because people spring into action without being prepared for the work it's going to take. Forcing change based on a date on the calendar, rather than a true readiness to transform, can be a setup for failure.

Amy Morin

Christmas sits like a black hole on the calendar. Just try scheduling a meeting at work the month of December.

Andrew Shaffer

My calendar was empty. Touring the way we did and having a schedule like we did institutionalizes you in a way where you don't know anything else. I think I went through the darkest depression I've ever felt in my life.

Andy Hurley

I'm so organised. I never screw up. I've done it maybe twice before. I check my calendar seven times a day.

Anna Paquin

While my calendar with Moda Operandi often takes me to fashionable locales like Milan and Paris, I am thrilled when opportunities to visit new places present themselves.

Aslaug Magnusdottir

Between speeches and awards, you can find something to do every other week. It's hard to write. Your focus gets splintered. Once you put one thing in your calendar, that month is gone.

August Wilson

There's no question that I am biased toward the Hebrew calendar over the Gregorian one.

Bari Weiss

In the morning, I look at my calendar and think about whether things that aren't critical can be moved to the next week.

Belinda Johnson

I'm not big on to-do lists. Instead, I use e-mail and desktop folders and my online calendar. So when I walk up to my desk, I can focus on the e-mails I've flagged and check the folders that are monitoring particular projects and particular blogs.

Bill Gates

Balancing family and work is a top priority for me, and I treat it as such. Meaning, I actually put specific family time and events in my calendar so that precious time is dedicated and properly blocked off from any work that may try to sneak its way into my schedule.

Biz Stone

People who know me know that I'm a rabid fan of the Kansas Jayhawks. My quirky habit is that every Kansas game is on my calendar, and, more often than not, I will plan and schedule flights around them so that I can engage and watch. I have already brainwashed my family to be Jayhawks fans.

Brad Garlinghouse

For my band's debut tour in 2011, we road-tripped across the country in a 15-passenger van. It was the first time I'd left Alabama. I drove through scenery I'd only ever seen in calendars: auburn leaves falling in Vermont, the sun setting over purple mountains in Arizona. It was incredible.

Brittany Howard

I have my whole life organized on an 11x17-inch tear-away weekly calendar.

Brooke Burke

I write back to all the soldiers who write to me and send them posters and calendars.

Brooke Burke

So when I looked at pictures and produced my calendar and edited the pictures, it wasn't just about looking at myself and thinking I'm attractive. I try to take myself out of it and get into the whole process of putting it all together.
