Adam Gollner

We respect Band Aid's ability to raise so much money for relief efforts, but their lyrics seem so misguided and inappropriate.

Patrick Moynihan

We're going to send to the Senate not only the first lady of the land, but she will be the first lady of New York,

Mindy Talmadge

When it broke it lifted the street up about 6 feet.

Bob Groves

We respectfully disagree with the court's decision. We do not feel we ever intentionally discriminated against this individual. Wheelchair lifts -- even the kinds on low-floor buses -- they are mechanical devices, and they do sometimes fail.

Peter Murphy

What this bill would do is a poison pill amendment to require the school board to approve the existence of a new charter school going forward.

In fact, it's designed to pretend to lift the cap, but in fact, squash any new opportunity going forward.

Lance Armstrong

What's so great about the kid is that he absolutely doesn't know the word quit. He gave us a real lift today, and you had to be impressed with how our team set him up at the end.

Naomi Hasegawa

US Treasuries, particularly long-term bonds, were robust on Friday, when the Japanese market was closed.

James Lee

With the lifting of restrictions and with the talent pool we have accumulated, we can expect that the growth will speed up a bit.

Timothy Ghriskey

We're into a bit of the summer doldrums.

So the mood is more upbeat, but that hasn't translated to higher stock prices.

Diane Centeno

We're getting a lift from markets where we hadn't advertised previously. It's small now, but we're starting to see it.

Chanel Iman

I drink a lot of protein shakes and do a lot of weight lifting.

Joe Bailey

When we announced we had signed the agreement with the Orange Bowl to extend the contract for eight to 12 years, we said Dolphins Stadium was going to be the premier site for major sporting events in the U.S.. We're doing everything we can to basically make it a brand-new stadium.

Catherynne M. Valente

..what came before has dissolved from me, lost like milk teeth. But I think, rather, that it has always been as it is, and there was never a beforethis nor will there be an afternow. I am accepting. This is not a thing to be solved, or conquered, or destroyed. It is. I am. We are. We conjugate together in darkness, plotting against each other, the Labyrinth to eat me and I to eat it, each to swallow the hard, black opium of the other. We hold orange petals beneath our tongues and seethe. It has always been so. It grinds against me and I bite into its skin..

Jane Asher

My mum taught me that redheads shouldn't wear pink, red or orange, but if you choose the right shade, such as a bright orange or a cherry red, it can look fabulous.

Tom Wilson

When we were big, we were big. But there wasn't anything else. Now there are a thousand other things for people to get into. And this is by far, by far, the biggest I can remember us being.

Jorge Mujica

When I wasn't documented, I remember the panic -- wondering if I could get a job. I felt obliged to help now.

Matthew Broderick

When I was little I used to see Godzilla all the time on TV, ... I just remember him knocking things over, which was fine with me. I loved monster movies and disaster movies, and this was a good combination.

Lauren Herring

When I was little, I used to feel a lot of pressure. Before matches, I'd want to throw up. But now, I've adapted. I do get homesick sometimes, but I have to remember why I am there and what I have to do to go pro.

Chelsea Peretti

When I was in New York, I got to see Joan Rivers do an hour of material, and it blew my mind. I don't remember how old she was at the time, but she just had this edgy hour that had so much funny stuff in it, and she was so fearless. If you only watch her on the red carpet, you don't get a sense of what a legendary standup comedian she is.

Scottie Reynolds

When it comes down to playoffs, it don't matter how ugly it is, it don't matter what you do, you are going to be remembered by wins and losses. We know if we slip up one time, it's over.

Gary McClure

You don't like anybody to beat you too much. I don't have a long memory. And as an athlete, you can't have too long of a memory. You've got to move on. I can sure remember last year though, because we played two of our worst games against them. ... But it's good to bounce back and get a win tonight. It's good to beat a good club." ()

Doug Pritchard

We remember with tears Tom Fox. We had longed for the day when all four men would be released together. Our gladness today is bittersweet by the fact that Tom is not alive to join his colleagues in the celebration.

Jeff Mitchell

We remember what they did to us last season. It's the season opener against a division opponent that knocked us out of the playoffs, and with what has happened to New Orleans recently, you know they are going to come in here ready to play. We shouldn't have any problem getting up for them.

Barry Alvarez

When we win big games, our running backs play well.

Chico Furtado

When we were running our sets and moving the ball, we did well. We got out of control and a little sloppy and they came back on us.

Becky Carlson

When we went to the half-court trap it bothered them and we picked up our defensive intensity. We were able to get some steals. We kept running the offense and got great shots, sometimes they just didn't fall for us but we had a good stretch at the end of the quarter.

Rachel Tucker

When I was in the running for the role of Elphaba, I knew it was important to research and study as much background information as I could, so I got my head stuck into 'Wicked: The Life and Times of the Wicked Witch of the West' by Gregory Maguire, and I believe I lost many days, weeks, and months reading it - I was captivated!

Carl Safina

When I was in high school in the early 1970s, we knew we were running out of oil; we knew that easy sources were being capped; we knew that diversifying would be much better; we knew that there were terrible dictators and horrible governments that we were enriching who hated us. We knew all that and we did really nothing.

Bernard Lagat

When it comes down to it, I wanted to win wearing this (USA) uniform. I was going to run to my best so that we could win. It wasn't like running against the Kenyans. Today, it would have been nice to beat my old countrymen. At some point, I felt that I let my teammates down.

Rachel Elkins

When it came down to it, there were three teams in the running for second place. The percentage of individual wins for Matt and Josh were higher so they took second.

Paul Gray

When it became obvious that they were one of the teams that we could be playing (in the regional) we made sure to scout a couple of their games. Jared Wood is a solid player. He shoots it well and he gets to the basket. Keegan is real active and is real solid around the basket. And their guard (Freeman) does a nice job of running the team.

John Jones

You don't like to do that, because you like to set your finals on the basis of qualifying so your eight fastest kids will be running head-to-head (instead of strictly against the clock), but coaches understand that some things just have to be done.

Ken Warwick

We've asked this question ourselves time and time again.

David Corbin

We've asked the city to continue its consideration of the project until April. We want time to look at our options with regard to Holiday House specifically and our overall employee housing needs in general. At this point, we want to go back and revisit our full employee housing goals.

Joan Berry

We've asked for a meeting with the sheriff numerous times, and he never has any time or even the courtesy to return my phone calls. This is very upsetting to me.

Nitin Nohria

We've always treated the historical context of a particular time as a kind of sidebar to any discussion about business leadership. But we've found that context is far more salient than we ever imagined.

Brian Hill

We've always said there's something better down the road waiting for you. It wasn't the right time or the right place.

Drew Goddard

We've always idealized youth and then destroyed youth. That has happened since the beginning of time, and I'm fascinated by why we do that.

Scott Rolen

We've always had a tough time playing them.

Andy Watson

We've always had a plan. As the years go along, you revise it every year, every six months or as needed. Every time there's a structure change, you have to update the plan, and with environmental changes.

Brian Cashman

We've always considered Roger a Yankee. If he decides to play, he'll give us the courtesy of an audience. We'll have to take a look at it when the time comes.

Robert Littell

The poetry of Walt Whitman. I can return again and again to these magnificent poems and still get pleasure from reading them.

We're not going to waltz into the postseason by any means.

Clara Mamet

I wrote and directed a movie called Two-Bit Waltz.

Randy Zanatta

Nike said they would just waltz in and be successful. That did not happen.

John Lasseter

When Walt Disney was making his films, he trusted his instincts and made films for himself, but they appealed to everybody, not just kids.

Pete Carroll

I have great respect for Walt and all the stuff he has done. For years, I have been calling him to ask him what's up, how to do this and how to do that. He is a really good football coach.

Dick Cook

Chinese cinema has taken the world by storm in recent years. And as China celebrates a hundred years of movie making in 2005, it is a perfect time for Disney to bring its wholesome family entertainment expertise to this rapidly growing market as part of the Walt Disney Company's focus on expanding our presence in China.

Philip Levine

My mother worked full-time so I was largely ungoverned, free to roam the streets of Detroit from an early age and research the poems to come, a tiny Walt Whitman going among powerful, uneducated people.

John Lasseter

Look at the films of Walt Disney: 'Snow White' came out in February 1938, and I can't think of another film from that year that's watched as much. The same is true of 'Bambi,' 'Dumbo'... even, frankly, 'Toy Story,' which is probably watched more than any other movie of 1995.

Rick Moranis

When we were producing the Great White North comedy album, my experience in radio told me I needed two singles in order to get enough airplay.

John Tesh

When I was playing piano, it was like, 'I'm going to write a song using all the white keys.' My music director, who knew my jazz background, suggested I try big-band music, so we spent a year experimenting with it in concert, and the audience reaction was really good.

John Travolta

When I was a kid in the 60s, believe it or not, most of you are younger and don't know that, but it was a blast to fly! You dressed up, you got in your Sunday best, women wore white gloves, you had room to stretch your legs out, you had a very nice meal, the stewardess paid particular attention to you. It was an event. It's so different today.

Edmund White

When I was a child, I loved 'The Marble Faun' by Nathaniel Hawthorne. The reason I liked it was because it had a beautiful binding. When you're a kid, you like books because they're pretty to look at, and this one had a white calfskin cover and gold edges. That was enough to make me love it.

John Edwards

We're missing some of that leadership in the White House now.

Richard Armey

We're going to take the president's submission as a serious proposal, and we're going to see where we can go and how we can work with the White House and the Democrats,

Mike Shula

We're going to put importance on the depth chart through the jerseys. We talked to the guys who have the white jerseys on offense and the crimson jerseys on defense about how you have to fight every day to hold on to those jerseys. We want it on their minds. We want to create an atmosphere that we have more competition that we've ever had.

Dick Armey

What we're not willing to do is to get ourselves into some complex negotiation with the White House where they initiate some increase in spending ... We just don't believe that is a dignified process,

John Niven

Whenever someone like a plumber or a mechanic tries to explain something technical to me, I listen for about three seconds before it all just becomes white noise, like Charlie Brown's teacher.
