Recall Quotations

I'm a leukemia survivor, and I recall during my darkest days in the hospital when my friends would come to see me, especially the male friends - they had certain mortality issues with their visit.

There are a lot of people who influenced me, nurtured me, helped me along the way. But I can just recall looking back, the first time I got my baseball glove. Put it on the wrong hand, all those kind of things.

Memory has always fascinated me. Think of it. You can recall at will your first day in high school, your first date, your first love.

When I was 16, I had a job on the cleaning crew at a local hospital. I wore a pink uniform and cleaned bathrooms and buffed the hallway linoleum. Oddly, I don't recall hating the job. I recall getting choked up at the end of the summer when I went to turn in my uniform and say goodbye to the ladies.

When something happens far back in the past, people often can't recall exact details. Blame depends upon point of view. There may be a villain, but reality is frustrating because it's often ambiguous.

I don't recall your name but you sure were a sucker for a high inside curve.

I can recall back in 1998, in August of that year, when we had a horrible disaster along the Mexican border in the town of Del Rio. At the time, FEMA was the shining star of the federal government. It's now perceived as many to be the dullest knife in the drawer. Right or wrong, that's the perception.

The thing is: in order to reach an agreement, to reach that balance, sometimes it is sort of like that old Rhinestone Cowboy lyric, 'There'll be a load of compromisin' on the road to my horizon.' For those of you who were too young, or don't recall the song, made famous by country singer Glen Campbell, it is your loss.

When I retired from active duty, I still felt that I owed something to my community. That's why I pursued education... I still miss the classroom and recall those days fondly.

What we are witnessing is the birth of something I call 'Polisdigitocracy.'

If you want to test your memory, try to recall what you were worrying about one year ago today.

I was so sure I wanted to be a novelist. I would spend hours and hours every day writing. Little stories about nothing in particular. I recall one about someone with an illness. But my dedication wasn't really healthy, and it reached the point where I wasn't sleeping. My mum would tell me, 'You need to go outside to get some fresh air.'

As far as we were concerned, we were operators, we were administrators. I don't ever recall going to Dean Acheson and asking for any counsel or advice on administration, but I had the greatest respect for him, as I have today.

I can't help but recall my dad and mom. Depression era kids, 8th and 9th grade educations, clawed and scratched to make a living as dairy farmers their whole life. At least two drought cycles nearly took it all away. They just worked harder, longer... and they made it.

When ambitious desires arise in thy heart, recall the days of extremity thou has passed through.

A lot of my stories about the old days, they're delicious and funny. But every time I recall the early days, it's painful. With every anecdote, it's painful because you're summoning up the terribly, terribly difficult life of my parents. And it's painful because I didn't realize at the time how hard it was for them.

Even during my youth, I can recall very few black people living on any kind of public assistance. People were working, doing some kind of job that was useful to the community.

My mother, as a girl, had remembered this woman from Maine, someone who was part of the extended family somehow, and I recall her talking about this great, risk-taking woman. There are the most amazing, heroic stories in everybody's lives.

Whenever we think of Christ, we should recall the love that led Him to bestow on us so many graces and favors, and also the great love God showed in giving us in Christ a pledge of His love; for love calls for love in return. Let us strive to keep this always before our eyes and to rouse ourselves to love Him.

I've always enjoyed singing and can't recall a time in my life where I wasn't singing. I'm most grateful for the strength I have in that department. I have a lot of bad habits on the guitar which limits my playing ability. But I get a little better each year.

We use paper documents to store knowledge so we can consult and reconsult it, giving us a type of recall impossible with our unaided minds; we use pencils to scratch down material so we can manipulate it in a fashion impossible in our unaided minds.

Christianity doesn't demand that we worship our ancestors. If we don't remember our ancestors, then, in all likelihood, we cannot also recall the distant past.

We believe that the Firestone recall is a storm that will intensify with the upcoming congressional hearing and then quickly pass. Based on our analysis of the outcome of other high-profile, controversial recalls, the stock should make a recovery.

There are some groups who say that Firestone's tire recall should be expanded. They offer small bits of information but lack the complete picture. These kinds of suggestions will make the situation worse.

We believe that Ford's recall of over 46,000 Explorer SUVs overseas since August 1999 undermines Ford's efforts to place responsibility on Bridgestone/Firestone in connection with the U.S. tire recall. As a result, Ford's credibility with U.S. consumers, legislators and regulators may suffer. We are thereby threatening the January 2001 launch of the new model.

When I was lieutenant governor, Jerry Brown was governor and you might recall that he spent just about a year of my term out of the state.

When I was a kid in the '50s, during the Eisenhower years, everything seemed to be working fine. I don't recall as a teenager ever worrying about the state of the future world.

We felt it was in our best interest to go with the guy who had the most recall to where Larry Kueck, our offensive coordinator, could get him on the side and say, 'Hey, Jimmy, you know, we're getting this, this and this,' and Jimmy would have some recall from past years. Bernie will definitely play, though.

We want to set the record straight. At no time during yesterday's meeting between Ford and Bridgestone/Firestone, did any representative from Ford ask us to recall tires or replace any tires. They did not ask us to join with them on a recall or a replacement program. They told us they had made absolutely NO decision concerning our tires on their vehicles. Comments by Ford to the contrary are inaccurate.

We're happy on the anniversary of the recall that we're now ready to proceed with the case.

The only other time I can recall my dad getting upset at me was when I missed a hockey practice. My parents were away, so my buddy and I decided to skip it. I never told my dad about it, but he found out from the coach.

Life is lived in a circle. The dates keep coming back to you. People say, 'Move on.' But that implies a straight road taking you somewhere else.

She's cool with it. You know, it was her suggestion that I launch this campaign.

Occasionally, someone has run against DeLay. But I don't recall any attention being paid, and I don't think the congressman took the challenge seriously. This is the first primary where he has had to extend himself.

I can't recall playing against a team that shot that well. It was unbelievable.

He's a very unusual person that has physical gifts and he also has great intellectual gifts. He has a memory that, without question, is sharp as one could have.

He's able to maximize his study and preparation for our opponents.

It appears the White House has abandoned the idea of taxing broadcasters billions in 'analog TV spectrum fees' and instead has given its blessing to the budget reconciliation bill as the means by which to raise billions in revenue (go to the last paragraph in bold). You will recall that each White House budget submitted for the last 10 years or so has included spectrum tax provisions in the billions that would target TV broadcasters.

I think their brand is tarnished forever. I remember the Firestone 500 recall (in 1978). They got past that. But times have changed. Consumerism is huge today.

I thought volume trends were good. And the recall seems to be a thing of the past.

I think that I recall the nostalgic '50s: the start of early television and rock-and-roll, and I think everything seemed to get very generic. Not much has changed.
