Bill Young Quotations

Let there be no doubt, our choice -- the choice of President Bush, the choice of the United States Congress, and the choice of the great people of a great nation -- is to fight back. The world will be impressed by our response and we mobilize for this fight.

One of the most vulnerable situations facing America is our ports of entry. Whoever's responsible for those ports of entry should be American.

If we'd had everyone, I think we could have won it.

I find it interesting that some people would position the sales tax initiative with this. It's simply not true.

There are no so-called earmarks, where members come in and ask you for something, ... That was our position, and the members understood that.

We made the request to the president to get engaged, and it was his decision not to,

He just drove onto a wide section of the sidewalk and took out all those people, ... He is a bad guy, and it looks like it may have been intentional. ... All I know is that he stole his mother's car and that he had had a bad day at drug court.

I was asked by the city to come to a closed door personnel session.

It has been a long difficult process, but in the end we believe we've struck a responsible balance between increasing funding for such priorities as education and medical research, without overburdening the American taxpayer,

I was able to convince him that this was in his best interests. We're very excited about it.

Our nation's needy families would be better served if Mr. Cuomo spent less time holding press conferences and more time working with Congress to ensure his programs have the maximum impact for those who depend on them,

We're wearing out our troops, we're wearing out the equipment,

We need to start the process quickly on the dollar numbers, ... The number that I am reading in the newspapers, in my opinion will be totally inadequate to carry even the Balkans issue to the end of the fiscal year.

We have an obligation to obtain as much intelligence information as we can from prisoners to save the lives of Americans who are fighting the fight, ... I don't believe we have any obligation to these terrorists.

What I think you probably couldn't put on TV, but it starts with a 'B' and starts with an 'S'.

There has been nothing in respect to moving the county seat and the county offices that I can support.

We saw enough to make us think we've got some very fine tackles.

We're not out to tear down trees. We'll try to do the best we can to situate the plans to preserve them.

We're not looking to build $350,000 homes. I'd love to have a few.

We've come to a situation where those crimes are ignored,

This old dog right here gets eight miles to the gallon,

Violent crime is a major concern for us. ... This is a high profile case, but it's not our only case,

We are going to get ourselves in trouble at Metro with our healthcare program if we do not get some of those dollars made up.

Every single person deserves to have a school named after them,

Competition just keeps us on our toes. But we'd rather not be kept on our toes with our own products.

Excess soil moisture can have negative effects on plant growth. However, grasses grown for seed in the Willamette Valley are known to be well adapted to wet soil conditions. In particular, annual and perennial ryegrass will tolerate temporary floods, and do much better than small grains on wet soils. Although short periods of flooding will not damage a stand, extended wet periods will cause stand loss.

There's got to be some compromises, ... The president has the veto pen.

There's no question he's one of the better players in the Big 12. He has unbelievable quickness off the ball. He would have had a ton of sacks if we could have contained the quarterback.

There's not a strong history of good government in New Orleans, or strong government, or effective government.

I spoke to President Bush just a few days ago, ... and told him that I was coming here to be with you and what we were going to do today.

As a rush-drop linebacker, he's kind of the perfect fit.

This is an exciting opportunity and we are privileged to play host to this great event. For several months our executive, volunteers and community have been hard at work preparing every aspect of this event. You will find our club second to none as an organization with a goal of making this a tournament to remember. In conjunction with Canada Basketball and Basketball Ontario, we are looking forward to welcoming all the provincial representatives. Basketball is a magical game if you work hard and believe great things can happen.

This is not the easiest bill to deal with and get votes for,

They had questions and I answered them. That's all. That's all I got.

They execute the Wing-T like we want to. They have a lot of misdirection. ... They've just got so many people (in the backfield) you can't begin to cover them all.

They eat, they buy gas, so it is a real plus for the Valley to have here .

This makes perfect sense from a strategic point of view, ... not cheap.

It was certainly an aim of mine to gain a bit of size and conditioning but I'll see how I go (carrying the extra weight) in a game situation this weekend.

It is within the budget, ... Anyone who wants to find something to complain about can find it, because it's a big bill. But there is very much in the bill to be proud of. The increase for veterans medical care, for example, is the largest increase ever for that account.

They are not riders. They are limitations on the use of funds,

It was his decision not to do so,

Sloping land is somewhat impermeable to water, thus a considerable amount of water is lost by runoff. Crops grown on these sites are less likely to be adversely impacted by saturated soil conditions during prolonged rainy periods, but are prone to a loss of natural fertility due to erosion. Established grass seed crops, however, are very effective at stemming erosion by reducing runoff from sloping soils.

That's a huge issue. Like in our league, other teams can talk about winning championships. With our number situation, we've got to look to try to win four games.

I have no interest in doing anything that would cause a negative impact on Chardon, and especially the Square,

I'm very keen to have a run. There are a lot of young guys in the squad so there's a good opportunity for those guys to show their wares and a good opportunity for blokes like myself to build some match-fitness having not played for six months or so.

In a residential area you just don't see turbines - there must be a reason why there are only eleven in Ontario. I am concerned about the value of my property and the noise. On a clear day when there is an offshore breeze I can hear everything on the highway, I will be able to hear the turbine.

I personally feel that I got elected to do a job. I am not one to succumb to political pressure or what's politically correct. I have to go out and do what I think is the right thing.

I like to bring in people who might give you a different perspective than from reading the book.

In years past he would be starting, ... Hands down he'd be starting right now. But that's the kind of quality depth we have.

This is a global war on terror, and if we don't win the battle in Iraq, where else might we win it or, where else might we have to fight it?

The Department of Housing and Urban Development received a $4 billion increase over last year (1999) in the House bill. This is a larger increase than we gave most agencies and departments in the federal government.
