John Quotations | Page 5

But at the same time, I realize how lucky we were to escape with a tie. John made some big-time saves or else we would have been 0-1.

Chris has had this amazing relationship with people like Dr. John and B.B. King.

I loved all the camp comics of my childhood, Kenneth Williams and Frankie Howerd and John Inman, but school gave me a very bad feeling about being gay and then, when I was about 12 - bang, along came AIDS. I can't think of a single positive thing about being gay at that time.

I loved all movies, literally. I certainly loved 'Shane' and 'Roxie Hart.' Later on, when I was less of a kid, I loved 'L'Avventura' and 'Persona' and all Fellini movies and like everybody else I loved John Ford. Then and now, I loved Preston Sturges, maybe above anyone.

I love all the movies by director John Hughes. I also love John Landis's movies.

I have sparred with John before and I knew he was a fast kid who would stick and move well. I just kept telling myself to keep going forward and throwing my punches. I just kept my head moving and kept trying to hit him as hard as I could.

I have a hard time talking about myself. It was much more than just an individual, ... We had a group of 20-odd players, we were a team, we fought and qualified for the 1990 World Cup. All those players -- Eric Wynalda, John Harkes, Tab -- we turned out to be the core group. We sacrificed a lot to make sure that soccer took off. We played in front of maybe 5,000 fans on a good night. But I enjoyed every minute. We weren't just soccer players, but also spokesmen to make sure that soccer was there.

I have been around for 35 years. I have met Elvis Presley, Elton John, John Lennon, all the Beatles. I have never ever seen anything like that and I hope I never will see it again. Michael was crushed.

I have a, you know, a John Ritter-shaped hole in my heart. Nobody can replace that.

I feel the best contribution I can make to the game is with the media and SBS, and the PFA now has a deeply committed leader with outstanding football, sports law and business credentials in John Didulica.

I firmly believe that as voters come to learn more and more about John Kerry and learn more and more about his message that they're going to want a President who is willing to address the fact that we didn't have a post-war plan in Iraq.

I feel really comfortable in all two-minute situations. Growing up as a kid watching John Elway, Joe Montana and all those guys make those comebacks I wanted to be like that.

I feel pretty good about having an experienced guy like John back there. He's been through some battles before, and we'll need him to lead us through some more battles when we start our season. I'm counting on John to do some good things for us and get us prepared.

I feel that if John Wilkes Booth hadn't shot Abraham Lincoln, Lincoln would have come through his pain and emerged like Livingston has. This album was made with the wisdom that comes from allowing yourself to be recklessly entwined with your agony and sorrow.

I did 'Lonely Hearts' with John Travolta and James Gandolfini. Talk about getting over your fears. These guys were amazing! Also, Cuba Gooding, Jr. is one of my favorites. We've made 3 films together. He is such a generous, giving actor.

I can't go to bed with John Wayne, so I do the next best thing: I go to bed with my girlfriend, who once met the great man. That's how much I love westerns.

I can't give you a timetable. I'm not going to answer questions during the season. We've had great communication in the past, and we'll continue to have it in the future. Our intention all along has been to have John here for a long time. We'll continue to work toward that end.

Growing up, I listened to a lot of jazz and blues records - John Coltrane and Etta James. I was also really into Radiohead and the BeeGees.

Give John Curry a lot of credit for being what we expect him to be. A guy who can win a game for us when we're not playing at the top of our game.

Getting John was an all-around blessing. His basketball I.Q. is through the roof and he's humble about it. Your hands better be up any time John has the ball. He won't look at you the entire possession and still he drops it right in your hands.

Gilchrist will appeal to the hard-core conservatives on the single issue of immigration, and one would think, take votes away from John Campbell.

Frelinghuysen basically said Murtha was helping the terrorists. The debate that day was about repudiating John Murtha.

Frelinghuysen basically said Murtha was helping the terrorists, ... The debate that day was about repudiating John Murtha.

Frank is a very patriotic man. He joined the Sons of the American Revolution late in life. Not because of Francis Scott Key, but because of Frank's great-great-great grandfather, John Ross Key.

From our perspective it is about being able to pursue claims on behalf of the corporation and the wrongdoers. We believe that to be Milbank Tweed, Goldman Sachs and unnamed John Does.

From what I've seen of the 49ers while John York has been the owner, I've seen no commitment to bring any kind of talent into that organization and doing anything that it takes to go out and be successful.

From today, Australians are much more vulnerable to being sacked with John Howard's extreme industrial relations legislation massively undermining their job security.

If anyone says, 'I love God,' yet hates his brother, he is a liar. For anyone who does not love his brother, whom he has seen, cannot love God, whom he has not seen (1 John 4:20).

I don't think you'll see a lot of change. It's not like John is moving into a situation that's broken and needs to be fixed.

I expect us to play to our potential against John Tyler. If you don't have the correct mental state, you could be in trouble.

I don't think it is a slam dunk, but I don't think there's much doubt that John Roberts crosses the finish line.

I don't think of it as coming back - I'm trying to fight the idea that this is Morse revisited. It's the same character, but without John inevitably it's going to be a very different animal. A lot of the old Morse fans will tune in and I want to play down the expectations that it will be Morse, because it can't be. John was a particularly special actor - in my view he was the best TV actor we've ever had - so you want to aim high. But you can't expect it to be Morse. It's Lewis.

From the third inning on, he was the John Lambert we're used to. He was really in charge.

For this reason, it is my further belief that it is not necessary to give notice of this application to John Fisher and Son (Limited) as the original grantor of the restrictive covenant,

For the uninitiated, 'Calvin and Hobbes' is a daily comic strip detailing the antics of an unruly six-year-old and his misanthropic stuffed tiger. The boy, whose vocabulary is packed with more 10-dollar words than a GRE flashcard set, is named after John Calvin, the Reformation-era theologian who preached the doctrine of predestination.

God, I love John Cassavetes. Throughout my acting career and continuing to be an actor and grow, I think there have been so many outstanding actresses, and I hope I can live up to the things they created and continue that on. I think Gina Rowlands is an amazing actress.

God Bless John Kerry. He just cinched this whole nomination. With Senator Kerry, it is Christmas every day.

If it turns out that George Bush doesn't get elected, once a party has run three times, like the Democrats after 1980, 1984 and 1988, they begin to see the light and say, 'We have to change,' ... Well if the Republicans lose this year ... they are going to be looking at John McCain and saying, 'Maybe he's got something to say, maybe we should listen to him a little bit harder,' and I think he's well-prepared for that outcome.

I get heartbroken flying into L.A. It's just this feeling of unspecific loss. Can you imagine what the San Fernando Valley was when it was all wheat fields? Can you imagine what John Steinbeck saw?

If we make a play here and there or get a base hit here and there, we could be 6-2. But we haven't done it. Sean Green struck out 13 in his first outing and then comes back with nine against Crown Point. John strikes out 14. Both have pitched well. We've just let ourselves down.

If we look at the nation that President Bush leads, it also behaves in many ways like an addict. The United States is a gigantic John Candy of a country, straining its oversized elasticated pants from the Atlantic to the Pacific. The country is addicted to more or less everything, constantly craving greater and greater quantities of petrol, electricity, pointless sports, empty patriotism, fatty hormone-crammed meat, gigantic pedestrian-crushing four-wheel drive trucks, ever more baseball caps with nonsense written on them and unquestioning obedience from every nation on the planet.

If the evens of September 11, 2001, have proven anything, it's that the terrorists can attack us, but they can't take away what makes us American - our freedom, our liberty, our civil rights. No, only Attorney General John Ashcroft can do that.

He was an amazing man. He really ended up being the voice of the voiceless, the people that many would just as soon forget about or pretend they don't exist. John spoke up for them. He spoke from the heart with sheer honesty. He seemed to have no regrets, and that's unique, especially nowadays with celebrities, when everyone's so concerned about their image and saying the right thing to maintain their following. John said what he felt regardless of whether it was popular or not.

He was an amazing - John McTiernan really was an incredible director, probably the best I've worked with because he constantly busted me when he wasn't getting what he wanted.

He was always prepared to take an unpopular position within the Cabinet. He did not think his role was to find a way to say yes. The most important thing when you are a lawyer, you have got to understand it's not your job to figure out a way to make something that isn't going to fly, fly. That was never John Ashcroft. He's not the kind of guy who would sit in an interagency meeting and would volunteer to figure out a way to get it done.

He turned around and he looked at me and he said, 'You are exactly what I pictured in my mind that John Coffey looked like,' ... All my questions went away.

I always loved those early Elton John albums. I sort of keep going back there,

He taught his football players basically the same thing we do. When you're in a football game, play it one play at a time. Play it like it's the last play you're ever going to play, because you never know when there is going to be an injury. You never know what's going to happen. I think John did the same thing in his life. He lived it one day at a time and he got a lot out of it. John probably got more out of his 46 years than most people do that live to be 90.

He's clearly not going to take more votes away from George Bush than he is from John Kerry,

He's certainly got a few years left and he wants to give them all to Celtic. John has always said he's 100% committed to Celtic and he loves it there.

He handles it the way he handles everything - with a good sense of humor and without ever really losing focus on his priorities. He's a regular guy with a big job. That is always the way John Boehner has approached his life in politics. It's an approach that has proven successful, and that is why he is majority leader.

He hadn't thrown all year. He did a good enough job but Pope John Paul is good. We just don't have a lot to choose from.

He has been the cornerstone, not just of the Chelsea defense, but the whole foundations on which their success over the last couple of years has been built. John is the one person you would want alongside you in the trenches because he is strong, dependable, reliable and fearless.

He improved to win the John Smith's Cup and he's improved again since. It's a long way from handicaps to Group races.

He hurt his arm the summer before he came here and he had Tommy John surgery. He's probably not at 100 percent. I also like the fact that he's not afraid at the plate, either. He got a big hit and put down a key bunt for us.

He got John moved to Fort Dix, closer to his mom and friends in New York. Orrin got John a guitar, too.

He got an automatic rifle and pointed it straight at him, and he chastised him about how the British treated people. I thought John was going to die.

He drove it so good it was a joke. He played solid. He should take a lot of positives from it. John should take a lot out of this week. He played well.

Having Claudio and John makes it easy on me because they do all the work. I don't have to worry about getting the ball and moving it from side to side or finding people. They do that. I just get in front of the goal and try to score, so it's going to be fun for me.

He made some throws that I'm sure he won't make this time next year. I think Alex is going to be good. I coached against John Elway in his first game, and it was very similar. You can't judge anyone by their first game.

He'll have to play in a harness, ... Al Wilson had it last year. John Lynch had it.

He means an awful lot to the Detroit Red Wings. I might dig out some old cards and get him to put his John Hancock on a few.

He came off the doggone chopper, and he started cussing, and people started moving, ... I give the president some credit on this. He sent one John Wayne dude down here that can get some stuff done.

Today it seems obvious to everyone that, of course, you have to be in the digital space or at least have a presence on the Internet. But if you rewind five, six, seven years ago, it wasn't so obvious then. There was a lot of trepidation and concern about how consumers would adopt it, ... John was one of the first to make that bold step forward. He was saying, 'We don't know how it's all going to turn out, but we do know the impact is going to be significant. We need to play today so we can be effective tomorrow.'

Whatever 'it' is, Tom Brady has it. Joe Montana didn't have the great arm like a Dan Marino or a John Elway, or the great speed, but he made the clutch plays. Tom Brady makes the clutch plays.

What Mike has done is certainly in the same category as what John Wooden did. It's an awfully, awfully impressive thing in today's world.

There is no better voice for an inclusive Republican Party than John Danforth, whose credentials as a loyal Republican, committed conservative, and man of faith are unquestionable.

There is no evidence that the author of the Book of Revelation, John of Patmos, read anything that we think of as a New Testament book. I don't see any evidence that he knew what was in the Gospels, or the letters of Paul, which I don't think he would have liked at all.

We took that to heart. John doesn't talk very often, but when he does, we try our best to listen. C-Du, he really listened to what John was saying, and he wouldn't stand down.

We took John and Kate to spend half a day at the McMillan open-air nursery school, and we talked about her and studied her ideas in action.

We took Beowulf, the epic poem in Old English, and put it right together with John Gardner's contemporary retelling. If you bring it into today, we really feel that it has something very fresh to say now.

When he took over an absolute mockery of a franchise, John said two things - he was going to run the ball and stop the run. Nothing epitomizes that more than the Giants game. That's what John said in his first press conference and that's exactly what he's done.

What I'm looking for tonight is the results here in Georgia. Can Edwards have a comeback here? Can he win the Minnesota caucuses? Can he keep it close in New York and Ohio? And barring a miracle, I mean a real miracle, John Kerry will be within a stone's throw of winning the nomination.

We've got to make sure we get John David through the bulk of it. We'll have to go to John David more in practice.

We've got to make sure John David makes it back. I wouldn't count Mark out, he's done too well. Mark's gained more ground on him - he had a great spring. His bid to start has been enhanced by that.

We support the bill by Sen. John McCain. It's not perfect, but it's a step in the right direction.

We think that John is ready for a big night. This is the first step for John. He's real close to breaking out and I think that two or three more fights he'll be in a position for a something real big.

When I played against John (Elway) he always brought my game to another level. Then, after all those years of hating him, I finally joined him and I saw that he was an elite individual. It never crossed my mind that we would be going against each other again.

We are extremely proud of John and Keith for earning this prestigious recognition. It is testimony to not just their outstanding accomplishments in 2005, but to their stature as top lawyers in their respective practices.

Today I pronounced a word which should never come out of a lady's lips it was that I called John a Impudent Bitch.

Today he came out and pitched like the John Thomson we knew last year.

What you saw is what you got, ... He didn't have a stage persona. He was a very honest, open guy and he used to drive me crazy. John would tell you want you wanted to know. He was a great guy.

Going around the city, seeing the signs, with John Tyler and things like that, it showed us the entire city just came right in there.

He's desperately trying to get fit for the Super Series in Australia. He has had a discussion on the matter with John Wright. We have given him time till the 21st of this month to prove his fitness.

He's happy, he's relieved. ... More than anything, John realized it's a business. The Jets gave him an opportunity to be comfortable and very happy.

His name is John Mason, a British national incarcerated in The Rock in 1962.

Historians tell us that a gentleman named John Ball once captured eight British Amateur titles.

Holly gets a chance to go to one of the finer organizations in the game, a contending club and a club he's performed well against. John Schuerholtz and Bobby Cox felt like as well as they are going, they could use a veteran who can pinch hit off the bench, which Holly has done well.

The Pacific Mozart Chorale in Berkeley asked four different composers (the other three are John Adams, Meredith Monk and David Lang) to fill in what Mozart left out,

The rains in Washington on the day that Pope John Paul II died were unusually ferocious, as if the heavens were weeping with uncontrollable sadness.

When he comes in and listens to a song that you're asking him to play on and he turns to you and says, 'Hmm, that chorus goes a little long, doesn't it?' you (acquiesce): 'Yes it does. Yes, of course , Mr. John Paul Jones, sir. You are absolutely correct.' It really was one of the most special things that happened to me in my entire life. Sitting down with an acoustic guitar, teaching John Paul Jones a song I'd written while he's playing it on piano - it was too much.

We looked at that standard of Hardy (Nickerson) and John (Lynch) and the Rufus Porters of the world. Those guys laid the foundation of the standard that we're trying to live up to. We know we have to get back to it. It's that physical type of football. Safeties capping off piles, creating turnovers. We're getting there. We're getting there.

Hundreds of ballplayers have performed well after Tommy John surgery, in which an elbow ligament is replaced by material from elsewhere on the body. More and more, athletes will perform with a bit of this or a bit of that in a joint or muscle.

Hyperbole has been part of elections since the days of John Adams, and there's nobody better than Joe Biden to give us a little hyperbole, as we all know.

Humanity will preserve an emotional memory of the tireless work of His Holiness John Paul II in favor of peace, justice and solidarity among all people,

He was like my father. We talked about how we wanted to die, and John said, 'I just want to go quick.' And he did.

I actually pretended to be a journalist, ... John's publicist was very nice, but he did say, 'John is too busy and, by the way, what publication are you from, Miss?' -- I've never told John any of this.

I always admired good writing and read everything that came out. When I was married to John Monk Saunders, he read everything, too.

I also told John Hammond this, 20 years later - to his exquisite embarrassment - that he was like this incredible, overwhelming influence on me.

He kind of set the tone for all those guys inside. And they've played well. He was a little like what John Randle was like for us a couple years ago.
