Came Quotes
Do you realize how close we came to blowing this? Do you realize how close we came, with all this garbage that was written about this district. The fact (is) that we could have ended up in a situation where we wouldn't have had any candidates to choose from. Thank God, we were lucky there.

Lose Quotes
You talk about losing your mind or blowing your mind or being out of your mind, but those things don't necessarily entail a loss of consciousness, ... Similarly, when you lose your consciousness, when you go to sleep at night or when you're anesthetized, you don't really think that you're really going to be losing your mind.

Attacking Quotes
This is probably the toughest weather I've ever played in and one of the best rounds I've put together. The wind was blowing probably 20 miles per hour with gusts up to thirty. You really have to play smart when you're playing in this kind of wind. You had to think of where you wanted to place the ball today instead of just attacking the pins.

Close Quotes
A lot of it is misleading because he has had some close matches. The scores just don't indicate it because he's blowing them open in the last period. He could easily have lost a match or two this weekend, but he's capitalizing when he's in a position of advantage. He's turning people and making things happen.

Blues Quotes
This is the problem, you gotta get into all this mixture of rock and blues that is happening in a feeble way these days. No one wants to go out and see a guy in a club who really can't play that well playing through a 300-watt Marshall blowing their face off. People have become disillusioned by the quality of the music, by the volume of the music, by the lack of humility that you see in some of these people because they think they can just pick up a guitar and walk out there and after three months be somebody. And you know what? Nothing is further from the truth.

Almost Quotes
The book that is the closest genetically to 'Goon Squad' is 'Look at Me.' It has the futuristic element - although, freakishly, almost every aspect I invented has come to pass in some way, including the terrorist who fantasies about blowing up the World Trade Centre. That was extremely uncomfortable. The book came out on the week of 9/11.

Blocking Quotes
I've got everything, ... The only thing I have that he doesn't is I come down and hit you in the mouth when I take on a block. He doesn't really care about doing that too much. I say you keep hitting that guy blocking you and blowing him up, they won't want to do it anymore. They'll slide away and say, 'Oops, I missed the block.' They didn't want to get it upside the head.

Almost Quotes
They were off most people's radar for a long time and we were constantly hearing from smaller retailers who were blowing through the product. It's clear that in certain markets, this brand was almost a cult hit. It's more of a middle America story, but I think they look at bigger markets as having growth potential.

Anyone Quotes
I'm very happy with where we're at right now. We've found a way to scrap out a couple of close wins to start league play and the kids feel confident. We're not scaring people or blowing anyone out, we're just finding ways to win close games and if we can continue to do that, we'll have a chance.

Diminish Quotes
If you're in an outdoor event, for example let's say a soccer game, and the person next to you is smoking on a normal bleacher and if the wind is blowing in your direction, it's like someone sitting next to you in a restaurant. Now, if the distance is farther, obviously the secondhand smoke would diminish or the side effects would diminish.

Bottles Quotes
In Yellow Submarine, we used chains that were there and all sorts of bowls and things. And of course, we used bowls of water too. And bottles with straws, blowing them into the water, to get the effect of submarines surfacing, that kind of thing. It was nice to do because it, we were all being very inventive. And it was fun, it was like a party almost.
