We're making the best use of the space we have. We're able to adjust the programs and activities to meet needs.

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!

It was an event. It's so different today.

William Daley

We've asked the lawyers to work overnight to draft some documents, and we'll be back in the morning.

David Snowden

Anthony Dragona

We've always worked cooperatively with the department, and we're only asking for cost of living increases.

Frank Williams

Juli Inkster

We've always got a good field here, and the course and the facilities are great. We've all enjoyed the experience here. I think it's great that they're trying to work it out to stay.

Aleksey Igudesman

We've always dreamt of a TV series and working in film. When we first sat down to seriously write 'A Little Nightmare Music,' to write something for TV was our original inspiration.

Joe Torre

When we get to that point, we'll probably know, ... If it's a tough decision, we'll make a tough decision. But I don't know what we're going to do. Mel has written it down all the way to the end of the season, but there are a lot of scratch-outs.

Fred Goss

We write a very strong script. The dialogue just doesn't exist within it. We give the script to the actors and they have a few days to chew on it. Dialogue is never written down.
