Alive Quotes
Recent information and further analysis leads our agency to conclude that the Southern Resident killer whale population is at risk of extinction, and should be listed as endangered. By giving it protection under the ESA, we have a better chance of keeping this population alive for future generations.

Achievement Quotes
Participation in the annual Best Practices Study has become a prestigious achievement for those that qualify for inclusion. It means the agency is among the best in the country. To be the top performer in one of the study's peer revenue groups means that agency is the 'best of the best.' It is an outstanding accomplishment.

Audience Quotes
NASA does a great job of communicating with people who are already predisposed to support portions of the agency's programs. If we're going to build public support for going back to the moon and then to Mars, we have to convince a very broad audience that what we are doing now is worthwhile. Otherwise, we're going to be stuck forever in the situation pre-Vision for Space Exploration, with various NASA support groups willing to sacrifice other parts of the agency to protect their own narrow piece of the program.
-
Announce Quotes
It is entirely appropriate for the administration to announce or espouse whatever political views they have. It is not appropriate for scientists at an executing federal executive agency to be required to adjust, skew, alter, or frame the tone of their scientific work to fit any particular political agenda.

Feelings Quotes
One should not interpret the word “Revolution” in its literal sense. Various meanings and significances are attributed to this word, according to the interests of those who use or misuse it. For the established agencies of exploitation it conjures up a feeling of blood stained horror. To the revolutionaries it is a sacred phrase.

Approach Quotes
That's the way they wanted to approach it. Miami made an offer but was told it was not acceptable. We chose not to. We decided to wait and see if we have a chance in free agency to get him. Unless we had permission to first explore everything involved, we weren't going to make an offer.

Act Quotes
Why was it expending precious resources hunting for ways that allow operators to use hazardous belt air to ventilate miners' working sections instead of protecting trapped miners? For an agency with such a clear mandate as that which Congress wrote into the Mine Act -- to protect and improve miners' health and safety, we ask you to consider how MSHA could have gotten so terribly misdirected.
-
Agreed Quotes
When the BLM agreed that the area met all the requirements for protection and pledged to update its 1987 management plan, the community as a whole took the agency at its word. By allowing gas drilling on these lands, the agency is ignoring public opinion and the conclusions of its own multiyear public process.

Bit Quotes
You like to have the numbers. It's obvious to say, but it's critically important who you pick and how it pans out. You've got to be a little bit lucky because it's not an exact science. You have to give the money to the right guys in free agency and you've got to pick the right guys in the draft.

Bit Quotes
We were a bit nervous when a few of the entourage came out scouting the site the previous day that they would change their minds about the tour. But they were actually excited and explained that Mr. Johnson was first a scientist and would really be interested in the equipment, the lab and the whole process. They are a very hands-on agency and told us they spend a lot of time in places like this.

Attractive Quotes
With the fan support that we have in this stadium, in this city and in this state, we are going to be the most attractive team for free agency whether we have a salary cap or no salary cap. We have the resources to compete either way. Just tell us what the rules are and we'll play by them.

Aftermath Quotes
We want to make sure that no bureaucratic obstacles stand in the way of these relief efforts. We are also working to ensure that regulations issued in the normal course of agency business do not have unintended consequences that might impede relief from being delivered in the aftermath of the hurricane.
