Wonder , or radical amazement, is a way of going beyond what is given in thing and thought, refusing to take anything for granted, to regard anything as final. It is our honest response to the grandeur and mystery of reality our confrontation with that which transcends the given.

Fittingly, in the final analysis, Clinton will not be remembered for what he did as president, but for who he did.

The treatment of the indeterminacy principle as absolute and final can then be criticized as constituting an arbitrary restriction on scientific theories, since it does not follow from the quantum theory as such, but rather from the assumption of the unlimited validity of certain of its features, an assumption that can in no way ever be subjected to experimental proof.

We picked up a pile of points from the relays. Most of the girls are happy, but some are disappointed they didn't get a chance to come back for the finals (today), especially our 200 free relay team. I don't know if we could have beaten Lafayette (the 200 free relay champion), but I would have liked to have gone up side-by-side and raced them.

Winning Section II finals was a big accomplishment for us. We knew we should have won last year, but we came up on the short end. We had to live with it for a year. I guess, a year later -- good things come around if you wait.

Winning Olympic gold against the best players in the world is certainly my greatest moment in my hockey career. But hopefully I can get into the Stanley Cup Finals with Toronto, too.

There's another way to edit the sentence, which is to add a comma before the second 'which.' The survivor is struggling toward 'some resolution,' not a specific resolution that the mind may never find. The final clause is an appended thought, not a conclusion of the previous clause: 'Death ends a life, but it does not end a relationship, which struggles on in the survivor's mind toward some resolution, which it may never find.'

We put ourselves in a position to win a title and we wrestled great and so did Rapids. I believe the two best teams met in the finals and the fans got to see a great match.

We would have been the underdogs in any group as it's our first appearance in the finals and we don't have the experience.

When I watch NBA games now on TV, what I see the most are opportunities for the big men that they are not taking advantage of.

We've only won what we've won before, we have to win the next series to get into the finals for the first time. But beating them two straight is quite an accomplishment.

Two sets of coaches will be selected for the two teams. At this stage we are using the names as the Warriors and the Barbarians. At round about the finals of the colonial cup the coaches along with the national selection group will put together the two sides.

Two more wins. That's what we were telling them before the game: 'Forget the regular season. We've got a three-game season right now we've got to focus on.' I think they've got it in mind to get back to the state finals again, to see if they can do it.

We knew if we got to the finals enough times, we'd eventually crack it loose. I thought we played one of our best matches of the year, maybe of our career. We went out there and just went for it and just let everything go. Didn't worry about winning or losing, stayed in the moment and it happened, which feels pretty good.

We just know that if we made it to the Finals against a team like Detroit or Miami, teams that rebound very well, it's definitely a key for us to rebound better if we're going to have a chance to win.

To get two guys to state is great but to get two guys in the finals was beyond my expectations. I don't know if this puts us on the map but we're definitely turning heads. I'm very excited. Let's hope this carries over to state. I'm proud of all my guys.

To have two kids make the finals is a great way for the individual season to come to an end.

To have three in the finals and win three state titles is unbelievable. We tripled the number of state championships in the history of our school.

We always knew a championship ring means way more than being an all-star, although we wanted to be all-stars. This is just secondary. It's not going to make me feel the same way as I felt when I was on that big stage in the finals when I won a championship. At the same time, it's going to be up there, because it's going to validate what I always felt about myself.

This year our team is going to get a chance to play in the state finals early. We get a chance to play Bedford (in the District). I think we're closer to them than we've ever been, but Bedford is the team to beat in the state.

Being among the playoff leaders but not having a championship like some of the others drives me a lot, ... To win a championship would complete my career. But I know it takes a lot of hard work, team effort. It's not going to be easy. I've been in the Finals four times and haven't won one yet, but hopefully this is the year we can pull it together and get one.

Both wickets can take a little bit of turn, particularly Adelaide, having had such a dry summer. The ball may turn a little bit more there, and the (shorter) square of the wicket boundaries also probably suit a few of our batsmen. But we are still going to have to play our best cricket to stretch Australia to the limit. We did that well in Sydney and we know going into the finals series that's the game we have to play.

Everybody (in Rolla) was cheering for us in the tournament finals but nobody really gave us a chance to beat that team. After that I was feeling very good about our chemistry. We were starting to get some point production from several people and that was going to be critical.

It would have been one heck of a finals match. We thought the bracket was set up wrong. They were the defending champions in their own building ---- how could we be in the same bracket as them?

It would have been awesome to have won one more and be in the finals again.

The winner of the meet may do so based on what happens Friday in the preliminaries. It's about getting to the finals and to the inside lanes.

I've never repeated, you know? We went to the finals back-to-back in Dallas, but we didn't win the second time. We lost in the final to Jersey. But if you have the same group, because of the knowledge you have, yeah, I think the journey is easier.

It was unfortunate that the players had to take such a stance and maybe it was immaturity on the part of some of them. Genuine concerns will always be addressed through proper channels but I believe we should not lose focus of the job at hand at the finals in Egypt.

It was unbelievable. Making the finals is one thing, but getting to a Game 7 and being tied in that game after the first period is another. A lot of people think they have a chance to win the Cup, but the only chance to win the Cup is when you have three wins in the final. It's something that I'll always remember, but in the end, we came up empty.

It was a huge win. For us to come here and take this and get back to the finals again is a pretty impressive feat.

The state tournament is a possibility for us. Especially if we have the same teams in our region as last year. A lot of it has to do with the fact that we're going to be driven. He lost in the regional finals last year, that'll motivate us.
