This idea that you can somehow create an atmosphere around people who are already respectful of the law and superimpose this blanket (handgun) ban as a solution -- a one size fits all, cookie-cutter approach -- is an absolute abysmal failure.

Jim Hendry

We've always had an interest in Greg. He's certainly earned the right to pitch wherever he wants. We're hopeful he'd like to come back and finish where he started.

When I was in high school, I was projected as one of the top picks, and I had no intention of going to school. But, I had a bad senior year and I fell.

Caitlin Rose

I have this friend who has a theory that lots of towns have energies. And, for instance, certain places in Alabama have bad ones because they were built on reservations or built on cemeteries or something. But Nashville has a really gravitational, magnetic pull.

One of the magical things about Nashville is just how many incredibly talented people are here and the way they support each other.

Callie Khouri

When you look around right now, Nashville is kind of going through another changing of guard; you're watching the Martina McBrides and the Faith Hills and all of them that have been the big stars for the last however many years, and the next generation is coming in: Miranda Lambert, Carrie Underwood, those girls.

Callie Khouri

Nashville is the place where I first realized how impossible it is to look at someone and know what is inside them, what special something they possess.

Elizabeth Ryan

We found ourselves with no water, electricity or phone for weeks. We needed to rebuild the entire infrastructure.

Cassandra Peterson

Maybe one of the strangest opportunities was I got to ring the closing bell on the New York Stock Exchange.

Laila Ali

I think that if you do want to be a fighter, then you need to work harder than everybody else and make sure that you surround yourself with good people, especially if you're a woman. You've got to find a team that takes you seriously as a female fighter and is not going to rush you into the ring before you're ready.

We're so excited and want to thank everyone who voted for us. It's a humbling experience.

John Marshall

We're going to talk to the voters about the issues Colorado cares about.

What he?s done is reverse his base. He got 85% of the white vote when he was elected first time. Now, this time, he?s likely to get a small percent of the white vote, but a large percent of the black vote.

William Holmes

What he's done is disloyal to the Democratic Party, ... If a candidate wants to choose his own running mate and not accept the one chosen by the party, that's being disloyal. He's offending a majority of the people who voted for their choice as selectman at the primary.

Bill Carrick

What he's doing is more an immunization thing rather than a real opportunity for voters to rally around the cause of this particular collection of tax cuts,

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.

Rose Johnson

When I was a girl, all we knew was this neighborhood, ... The beaches were ?whites only.? So Turkey Creek is where we went to fish, pick blackberries, recreate.

Churches had no pools inside for baptisms then?we all walked down to the creek and waited until the crowd got there.

Dick Gephardt

You don't lock into a ten-year family budget. You take it a year at a time - maybe even six months at a time.

We think that same principle should apply to the national family we call America.

We're sort of waiting by the phone to hear what they decide.
