How different from the common art of self-tormenting!

Chanakya

Chankaya is referring there to the probibition of entry of the untrustworthy in the counsel-room. Disloyal persons foolishly speak out the secrets of the counsel not knowing the harmful effects of the same. Disclosing the secrets of the counsel mars the welfare of the country.

Patrick Darby

What he isn't giving up is heart, and he has tremendous heart.

Jenn Warden

We found some things in this team tonight that have been hiding. It was a tremendous night of finding some things inside us and we stayed in the moment no matter what happened in the game. We took great risks and I couldn't be more proud of our players. No matter who we tapped on the shoulder they were ready to do whatever we needed.

Brian Curran

We got up 4-1 and we got complacent. Their defense jumped up the ice and put a tremendous amount of pressure on us. That's a team you have to play for 60 minutes, and we didn't do that. End of story.

Sean Cotter

We've always felt Heidi was a real good hitter, and she's definitely a feared hitter in the conference, but it just seemed like she just wasn't able to put it together for long stretches. And this year she's just been in a really good place, I think, both physically and mentally.
