A SPIRITUAL WORD from david bruce STORIES ARE ABOUT RELATIONSHIP Click to start
SPIRITUAL THEMES

Dodgeball is a story not unlike many other stories of this type told in the past, a group of misfits challenged by the upper echelon of society decides to fight back and make a stand for themselves. Peter La Fleur played by brilliant actor Vince Vaughn operates a small gym called Average Joes. Average Joes in many ways is for the average person, the person who goes to the gym for many of the same reasons a person might go to a bar. The opening scenes of Average Joes could have very well used the theme song from the television sitcom, Cheers, a place where everybody knows your name. --Mike Furches ON AVERAGE JOES The average person thinks he isn't. --Father Larry Lorenzoni The average man, who does not know what to do with his life, wants another one which will last forever. --Anatole France (1844 - 1924) The average, healthy, well-adjusted adult gets up at seven-thirty in the morning feeling just plain terrible. --Jean Kerr Religion consists in a set of things which the average man thinks he believes and wishes he was certain of. --Mark Twain (1835 - 1910) The average person living to age 70 has 613,000 hours of life. This is too long a period not to have fun. --Author Unknown Good leadership consists in showing average people how to do the work of superior people. --John D. Rockefeller (1839 - 1937) It's the place where my prediction from the sixties finally came true: "In the future everyone will be famous for fifteen minutes." I'm bored with that line. I never use it anymore. My new line is, "In fifteen minutes everybody will be famous." --Andy Warhol, Andy Warhol's Exposures (1979) "Studio 54"
