We're just not playing on all cylinders. We're misfiring here and there, with moments of brilliance and moments where we're just not good. But we've got a tough game (today).

Susan Dunn

We've asked the congregation a lot of different things during this period, getting opinions, because we want the whole body to be working toward the same goals.

Brian Billick

We've always talked about the pressure from the outside and contrasting that with Terrell Suggs . If that's a nickel role, you're talking 15-25 snaps. He's capable of doing more, but we have a lot of assets here to balance that out. If we can use him more, we will.

Tino Reyes

When we were getting pretty close to signing him, he called us from one of his maneuvers. I asked him, 'Where are you guys?' He said, 'Up north.' I said, 'Where up north?' He said, 'The Arctic Circle.' That was different. He e-mailed us a picture from there. He had his parka off.

When we came back for that pep assembly (Sunday), I think Rae Lin had her picture taken with about 20 kids who were between third and eighth grade. They fell in love with her and they idolized her.

Billy Mayfair

We grew up together, and I have a picture of him and I at the Junior Worlds. He won, and I think I finished fourth or fifth.

He's playing great, and I'm excited about playing with him tomorrow.

Mitch Kapor

I'd acutely felt the lack of a product that I really loved, but there was a tremendous lack of commercial opportunity to start software ventures around these ideas, given the industry's structure, and I did a lot of thinking about how things might be put together, learned a lot about open source, made a pilgrimage to go see Linus, and tried to educate myself.

James Hunter

I have an old picture of Sonny Til and the second tenor from the Orioles outside the Earle Theatre. It was such an atmospheric picture, I dragged my girlfriend around town on a bit of a pilgrimage until I finally found it. That was one of my coolest moments so far.

Just recently we were coming out of Niger and it so happened that there was a great pilgrimage so all the hotels were full. We ended up sleeping on the floor in tin huts with bed bugs and fleas.

We're here for the long haul. As long as this country is at war with Iraq, we'll be here to oppose it. I think Crawford has become a point of pilgrimage to a lot of people. This has become hallowed ground.

Paramahansa Yogananda

My keen love of travel was seldom hindered by Father. He permitted me, even as a mere boy, to visit many cities and pilgrimage spots.

S. Hughes

We're attempting to help people move through the pilgrimage from being victims to being victors for the Lord,

When we were talking to them about the marketing, I said traditional theater marketing never works for us. We need college students, we need young people who wouldn't necessarily go to Denver Center.

A lot of marketing we're doing is promoting Red Scare without the Second City name or the Denver Center name.

Cedric Redmond

When we were going into the locker room at halftime, we heard some fans saying that we're going to fall apart in the second half. We wanted to make sure that didn't happen.

Mike Mastroianni

When we were down 11 at halftime, I wasn't happy; but I thought we still had a shot. We took them out of their rhythm in the second half and that was the difference.

Jermaine Spencer

When we went in the locker room, we said we weren't pushing. We weren't getting as hard after them as we should. In the second half, we brought the fight to them. Instead of backing down and letting them do what they want to do, we made them step up and play -- play defense and make tougher shots.

Gary Ramstetter

We faced some good guys in the finals, especially Sonny, because Ian is a high school All-American and strong. He's tough to beat, he can catch you any time. I thought Sonny wrestled very good match.

James Hunter

I have an old picture of Sonny Til and the second tenor from the Orioles outside the Earle Theatre. It was such an atmospheric picture, I dragged my girlfriend around town on a bit of a pilgrimage until I finally found it. That was one of my coolest moments so far.

Freddie Bell

I will be carrying on the way Sonny did. Whatever happens, happens.

Mary Bono

So many people got us through the loss. Certainly beginning with family on all sides, tremendous friends, Sonny's congressional friends -- they really held me up in a huge way. I had a handful of members of Congress at my house everyday after Sonny died for about a week. They were there with me. But mostly, I think my children ... the big thing that my kids needed ... to know was that they lost their dad and they needed (to know) mom was strong and mom would go on.

Mary Bono

But mostly, I think my children ... the big thing that my kids needed ... to know was that they lost their dad and they needed (to know) mom was strong and mom would go on.

John Ernst

We decided she had to be there. He's home and doing better now after three or four days on machines that did his breathing for him. Now that she has found him, Sonny needs more time with him before he dies.

Ian Hunter

When I heard him, I thought, if he can do that and get away with it, I can do it too. (on Sonny Bono)

Denis Norden

A counter tenor is anyone who can count to ten.

John Bollinger

I would have thought that with the negative tenor of the news -- economic and geopolitical -- more damage would be done, ... That suggests to me the market is in a constructive mode.

Mark Burnett

Having book smarts versus street smarts seemed like a great idea but it changed the tenor of the show, ... It affected the reaction among the show's usually wealthy and well-educated audience. I don't think people wanted to see potty-mouthed competitors.

James Hunter

I have an old picture of Sonny Til and the second tenor from the Orioles outside the Earle Theatre. It was such an atmospheric picture, I dragged my girlfriend around town on a bit of a pilgrimage until I finally found it. That was one of my coolest moments so far.

Through the sequester'd vale of rural life The venerable patriarch guileless held The tenor of his way.

Kathleen Norris

None of us knows what the next change is going to be, what unexpected opportunity is just around the corner, waiting a few months or a few years to change all the tenor of our lives.

Larry Watkins

Tom's probably the second-highest ranking guy in town right now. Seriously, though, he does a great job. He's always got as many things going on as he can for a town this size.

Mike Toohey

We're making a substantial investment into the town of Maggie Valley.

Larry Southard

We're sitting on a ticking time bomb. This town is ready to ignite.

Mayor Shaw

What this is for is (to express) what you want to see the town of Wesson like in the next five years, 10 years.... But we can't get your ideas unless you're there.

Nate Turner

When we came over the (U.S. Route 136) bridge, there were about 40 cars and a police escort waiting for us. We took a victory lap around town. It was like a carnival. The kids needed the win, and the town needed the win.

Jeff Griffin

When we found out the fireworks might not happen, we started raising money, ... Family Day is a great time for Sterling and surrounding towns and the fireworks top it off.

Carter Canada

What he's good at, he's done. He's the troubleshooter, the guy you send in to clean up the town in the Old West.

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.

Clint Hurdle

We've always wanted to improve our bullpen, but until this year we weren't able to get the pieces we wanted. It's been frustrating. . . . It's not easy to spend the bulk of the game battling for a lead and then seeing it get away. . . . Now we have some depth. We have some quality arms.

Jimmy Kimmel

When I was on the radio, I used to be able to go a lot farther than I can now. You don't really remember until you're on the radio again, sometimes in your old radio station and sitting with the guys you used to work with and you go, 'Oh yeah, I can't say these things anymore. I'm handcuffed.'

Susan Vreeland

When I was nine, my great grandfather, a landscape painter, taught me to mix colors. With his strong hand surrounding my small one, he guided the brush until a calla lily appeared as if by magic on a page of textured watercolor paper.

Deborah Copaken Kogan

When it comes down to it, I believe that, having made the decision to bring children into the world, I owe it to them to be as present as I can in their daily lives and to try my best to stay alive until they've made it through to adulthood.

Dan Edwards

When I was a kid, Henryetta was 'town' to me. I helped build the Indian Nation Turnpike and spent many hours laboring in this area. I think Henryetta is a great place to be and I plan to stay here until I retire.

Richard White

When I was a kid growing up and my dad owned the drug store, it stopped dead on Labor Day. That was it. People left, and you didn't see them again until Memorial Day. There was no Columbus Day, no Thanksgiving, no New Year's Day. There was none of that.
