Appealed Quotes
What appealed to me is what hooks most people, and that's Hollywood. 'Zorro,' 'The Three Musketeers,' even the sword-fighting stuff from 'Star Wars.' It hits the fantasy button in all of us. Every boy at some point grabs a stick and tries to sword-fight his friends with it in the back yard. We all have that kid inside of us who dreams of knights and sword fighters.

Against Quotes
We talked about it in the locker room before the game, that this was the game we needed. We felt they hadn't been tested in this postseason, they hadn't played against a team like us that plays defense, believes in itself and tries to control the tempo of the game. Yesterday was a good game to show them that.

Ball Quotes
Berkman is a solid switch-hitting guy, he's the one guy they should be pitching around. Berkman is a different hitter in Houston than on the road. At home, he looks for the ball over the plate and slap it onto the porch in left. On the roach he tries to be a pull hitter. Kornerko is solid power hitter and a real good breaking ball hitter. They are the two guys who can beat you.

Almost Quotes
An inventor is simply a person who doesn't take his education too seriously. You see, from the time a person is six years old until he graduates form college he has to take three or four examinations a year. If he flunks once, he is out. But an inventor is almost always failing. He tries and fails maybe a thousand times. It he succeeds once then he's in. These two things are diametrically opposite. We often say that the biggest job we have is to teach a newly hired employee how to fail intelligently. We have to train him to experiment over and over and to keep on trying and failing until he learns what will work.

Answer Quotes
There's no question that 600-pound gorilla was in the room that no one wanted to talk about. If you keep going innings without scoring runs, everybody tries to do too much in one at-bat, and that's when you start to get into trouble. That's when it becomes a team slump. It was nice to answer in the first inning.

Again Quotes
is one of the foremost workers in digital imagery, who has been incredibly experimental in the way he prints them out. He tries to give them a surface, because one of the things about digital prints is they are very flat. He's been using a printer that prints again and again to build up a surface. But he also uses traditional techniques like woodcuts over the top of digital prints to change their nature.
-
Cares Quotes
Ivory is a character. I don't think she really cares what she does. She just tries to be unique. She's the (Terrell Owens) of women's basketball. When she makes a hustle play or a steal, she might give you a dance or a wink to let you know that she's fired up. You just never know what she's going to do.
-
Ball Quotes
People don't know what you're doing. We can line him up at receiver and if a smaller defender tries to cover him, that's a big mismatch. You get in the red zone, down near the goal line, and he becomes a real big factor if you can get him matched up with smaller defensive backs. . . . It's head and shoulders when you say who's the top tight end in the league in terms of getting the ball to a tight end and letting him do some things.

Assigned Quotes
The most thoroughly and relentlessly Damned, banned, excluded, condemned, forbidden, ostracized, ignore, suppressed, repressed, robbed, brutalized and defamed of all Damned Things is the individual human being. The social engineers, statistician, psychologist, sociologists, market researchers, landlords, bureaucrats, captains of industry, bankers, governors, commissars, kings and presidents are perpetually forcing this Damned Thing into carefully prepared blueprints and perpetually irritated that the Damned Thing will not fit into the slot assigned it. The theologians call it a sinner and try to reform it. The governor calls it a criminal and tries to punish it. the psychologist calls it a neurotic and tries to cure it. Still, the Damned Thing will not fit into their slots.
-
Adopted Quotes
A couple of years ago we actually adopted an ordinance for improvements to be made to the Riverview Apartments. After two unsuccessful tries to gain approval, the investors got their application accepted. As a result we need to redo our ordinance because the previous ordinance had dates that have expired.

Action Quotes
A user-aware platform will be any device that can take care of itself, knows who we are, where we are, and tries to anticipate what we want done. They will need digital senses to be aware of their surroundings and what they are doing. They will also need new levels of intelligence to understand our needs and collaborate with other electronics to take action on our behalf while doing no harm in the process.

Bring Quotes
A lot of guys say, 'I'm not going to bring that many guys in that have managed,' but Joe tries to surround himself with good people. I think the people we've got are quality people, and Joe lets us do our thing. Being around Joe since spring training, you can see why he's such a great manager. He relies on his staff. And yet, when there's a tough decision to be made, he makes it.
