1. John Greenleaf Whittier:

   Of all sad words of tongue and pen the saddest are these, what might have been.

2. Dejan Stojanovic:

3. Ryan Watson:

   Young people -- in particular -- are understanding that gender and sexuality is complex, unfortunately, at the same time, state governments are limiting the rights and expressions of these identities. At a time in which youth are finally finding words to describe who they really are, politicians are limiting the rights of youth and their parents who just want to be happy and healthy.

4. Stephen Colbert:

   Now, if you saw my monologue Monday, you know that I was a little upset at Donald Trump forinsulting a friend of mine, so at the end of that monologue I had a few choice insults for the president in return. I don’t regret that. He, I believe, can take care of himself. I have jokes; he has the launch codes. So, it’s a fair fight. So while I would do it again, I would change a few words that were cruder than they needed to be.

5. Gary Rossington:

   Today I'm at a loss for words but I just remember Bob being a funny guy, my heart goes out to his family and God bless him and them in this sad time. He was a great great drummer.
