Kurt Quotations
Kurt Quotes from:
-
Bedroom Quotes
At first, my bedroom had flowers and yellow walls and huge furniture in plastic that was orange and green - and furry green bed cover and everything. Then, I think the day I turned 13, I painted the walls black and put Kurt Cobain on the wall and just changed everything into a dark theme.
-
Brakes Quotes
With those long straights and tight corners, Martinsville is a tough track on the brakes and the motors. It really puts a lot of it on the driver too because it is so mentally exhausting to go run around for 500 laps on those tight turns. We had a good run going in the spring here before we were wrecked, and Kurt has taken the car to victory lane here before. We all know he knows how to run short tracks, so we'll see if he can keep the fenders clean and get a good finish.
-
Clearly Quotes
Signing Kurt Warner is a great step in that direction. He is clearly one of the top quarterbacks in the National Football League. His story, as I said last year, I think will continue to grow, and we think we will be a successful team. There couldn't be a better guy to lead us to that success than Kurt Warner.
-
Baseball Quotes
I did grow up with Kurt Russell as a Dad, who was a professional baseball player, with all boys. All I wanted to do was be the best athlete. I was the kind of person that in high school, if I didn't beat the record, I was very disappointed in myself. I finally got to do that in my work.
-
Behind Quotes
If the fans aren't enjoying this points race this year they're not paying attention. This is like a toe-to-toe heavyweight fight. Kurt has the best car right now. I can't seem to put any space between us. He's been storming up behind us in the points. I had to win just to hold him off.
-
Ability Quotes
He has the ability to slow the game down, and he executes extremely well, ... He has to have a supporting cast, and I'm talking about the offensive line. Quarterbacks like Kurt Warner need good pass protection. He's not going to panic. He's going to hold onto the ball and go through the progressions.
-
Best Quotes
He doesn't always do what's best for him. He always did the best for the organization on the racetrack. Three years ago, Mark (Martin) was running for a championship. Kurt was leading (at) Rockingham, and Mark was running second. Kurt pulled over so Mark could get the points for leading the most laps. Things like that, most people would never think of doing.
-
Building Quotes
I think what it does demonstrate is that we're committed to building a strong nucleus for our football team, and part of that effort is making the right decision about the players you reinvest in. We just consider Kurt Warner part of that process, to reinvest in quality people and quality players.
-
Districts Quotes
Kurt only gave up four points on his feet in 34 matches. The only other points he gave up were from releases. Nobody scored on him at districts or at state. This is a high school kid who doesn't make mistakes or get out of position. He wrestled all season at an extremely high level.
-
Bombed Quotes
My theory is that Kurt had a lot of residual pain from his childhood. And when you pile that on top of his experience in World War II - he was in Dresden when it was bombed and saw a city annihilated. When you combine those two things, my impression of Kurt Vonnegut at 84 was that he was a very pained and haunted man.
-
Adjust Quotes
We know that you've got to collect points, ... Kurt (Busch) last year was very consistent and collected the most points. That's everyone's baseline. You go into the final 10, if somebody is on a tear and wins a bunch, everybody is going to have to adjust their game. But going into any series, you want to cover your bases and be solid. . . We'll go to Loudon and get our feet wet. We can spend our first two or three races just feeling things out to see where we need to be.
-
Car Quotes
We haven't had finishes at this track like we want, even though Kurt has shown that he really knows his way around some of these short tracks. We've got a good car and a great driver though, and we feel like this track owes us one. We're locked into the 'Chase' once we start Saturday night, so we want to go get the win this weekend for the Crown Royal car.
-
Asked Quotes
We had a really good test there a few weeks ago. It reminds me of Pocono a little bit. When we tested there Kurt (Busch) was there as well so I asked him a ton of questions and he helped me a lot. I think there are a lot of places to pick up speed which is neat. We ran the fastest lap time that day which was cool. I'm really optimistic about our chances there.
-
Added Quotes
We chose Kurt to drive the Miller Lite car because he thrives on competition and has an unrelenting will to win. Healthy, fun- spirited competition is the essence of sport and of business; and the Miller versus Bud battle is one great example of this. We both have a great tradition in the sport, and a little added public competition will be fun for everyone, especially the winner.
-
Alliance Quotes
There's a great op-ed piece by Kurt Johnson, who runs The List Project, that I recommend everyone read. He was talking about how he's been trying to get out of Iraq who were our allies, who are now subject to torture, and their families are being killed because of their alliance to the United States.
-
Accept Quotes
They (fans) respond mostly to what WWE trains them to respond to. An ankle lock gets over because Kurt Angle does the ankle lock and everyone submits to it. A triangle by Undertaker doesn't get over because WWE has never trained the fans to accept that as a finish because no one ever taps to it. And it was the same thing when Shamrock was in WWE.
-
Ball Quotes
Aaron's going to have to step up and take more of the load because we might have to change up what we do some on offense. You don't have No. 26 back there to carry the ball 25, 30 times a game. I've been in this situation before at St. Louis. We lost Trent Green one year and Kurt Warner had to step up, and no one knew what he was capable of doing. All of a sudden, we had a huge turnaround, and we won the Super Bowl. And the rest is history.
-
Bit Quotes
It was clear that we had a winning car. When all you have to do is lift on the gas pedal and elect not to run into the car in front of you on the straightaway, that's pretty unforgivable. You've got to have a little bit of respect for the other drivers you're racing with, and Kurt hasn't shown respect.
-
Behind Quotes
I'm not sure how good we would have been without Kurt behind the wheel. We got a little bit behind with the flat tire, and Kurt couldn't talk to us at that point because of a radio problem. But Kurt drove a very hard set of laps. There's really nothing more that needs to be said. It's hard racing at Bristol.
-
Alongside Quotes
I'm a big Steve Nash fan, have been since he's been in the league. I wanted to play with AmarŽ (Stoudemire) and Jimmy (Jackson, a Miami teammate). It was the fit and the opportunity to be alongside Kurt Thomas and AmarŽ. They made a great run, especially during the regular season. It definitely helped to have a great chance of getting out of the West and making a championship run.

Eventually Quotes
In seventh grade, with some vague sense that I wanted to be a writer, I crouched in the junior high school library stacks to see where my novels would eventually be filed. It was right after someone named Kurt Vonnegut, Jr. So I grabbed a Vonnegut book, 'Breakfast of Champions' and immediately fell in love.
