Crouch down and lick the hand that feeds you, and may posterity forget that ye were our countrymen." - Samuel Adams

"They have examined the matter they have conducted research and so on. They know what is dangerous for cricketers. If they say cricketers must go to Zimbabwe, must go to Kenya, that is what they must do."
