Mitchell Hurwitz

When we were making 'Arrested Development,' it was the hardest thing I'd ever done. You know, nobody was watching. We weren't getting feedback. The job wasn't paying very well.

Dee Bradley Baker

When I was a child, I thought I was going to be a paleontologist because I loved dinosaurs.

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.

Bob Collins

We've asked all our section pros to put their program up on the Web site and I'm really, really excited the way they're starting to get involved.

Paul Stamm

Terry Lickona

We've always known there was a reason to keep all these original masters. We've never erased a single tape from any show we've ever done.

We're proud of these old shows and we think they deserve to be seen by new generations of fans and people that have been fans all along.

Richard Foreman

We've always respected Israel's right to defend itself, including going after armed groups and armed men in some of these areas.

And we've said that often results in tragedies and numerous deaths. And that appears to be what's happened again.

Jim Hendry

We've always had a lot of respect for him. He pitched so well against us for Houston. He went out there last year with some discomfort and gutted out his starts in Boston. He's a winning-type guy. He's a winning pitcher who, when he's out there, he wins you games.

Eli Juarez

When we were down by 19 I'm sure people left to go watch the other game. It came down to earning some respect. We decided to go out and leave everything on the floor. I think the kids earned that respect with their effort.

John Goodman

When I was in high school playing against those guys I really didn't feel friendly towards them at all. I tried to make myself think I hated Unionville at the time, and there was definitely a lot of trash talking. You run into those guys all the time. It's pretty important to have those bragging rights so you can walk with your head a little higher. But now that I'm out of school and you see those guys there's no hate there. I have a lot of respect for them.

Martin Rees

To most people in the U.K., indeed throughout Western Europe, space exploration is primarily perceived as 'what NASA does'. This perception is - in many respects - a valid one.

Nicholas Burns

We remind the Burundi government and security forces that respect for human rights and peaceful dialogue should be key elements in their efforts to re-establish security in the country.

We've always wanted to give something back to our fans, and to play the kind of shows we know they want to see, ... And we really think this tour is exactly that.

Terry Lickona

We've always known there was a reason to keep all these original masters. We've never erased a single tape from any show we've ever done. We've just about run out of space to store these tapes, but they've turned out be gems. We're proud of these old shows and we think they deserve to be seen by new generations of fans and people that have been fans all along.

Matt King

We've always gone to watch shows there. It's a very cool atmosphere.

Rocky Carroll

When I was a kid growing up, there might be 10 shows on the air that had been on for ten seasons or eleven seasons. 'Gunsmoke' ran for over twenty years.

We're going to gauge reaction to the 101EX and take the car to shows around the world.

Jason Schenker

Kathleen Stephansen

What this, in conjunction with the April unemployment report, shows is stabilization in the labor market and timid improvement. By no means are we talking about a roaring improvement in the labor market.

David Snowden

We've always worked well within DoD guidelines and of course will continue to do so. We support the directive and all regulations that would protect military members from unscrupulous business practices.

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

James Lipton

When it began I wrote this passionate letter to people I knew, studio members, of course, and other people with whom we have worked over the years and I said come and teach our students.

Geno Zamora

Tom said people in our country should not live like this. We filed law suits in Dona Ana County and it worked for two reasons. The developers knew they would be held accountable and there was some serious reform of the New Mexico Subdivision Act.

Richard Costigan

We're somewhat disappointed. We've been working with the Legislature all year on a great policy bill. ... We really worked up until the 11th hour.

Natalie Taylor

We're getting to know one another. We've really improved from last week to this week. We worked as a team and communicated a lot more.

Stan Conte

We're going to go back to the things that worked the last eight years. No matter what age a person is, he still has to go out and run.
