• Quotes

  • "My catch phrase has been flying under the radar in kind of the easy-going, kind of fun-loving guy until I can get to a certain part of the game and then start making moves. I thought I would do what's called persuade and evade, you know, try to get a lot of invitations out there and see who comes, as opposed to trying to trying to focus on one or two people to make an alliance with. Does that make sense? And evade premature alliances. I want to make sure the people I'm aligned with are going to be around."—Joe DowdleReality Blurred: Survivor Tocantins: Joe Dowdle (February 3, 2009)
