We haven't been able to do that, in a number of cases but we just keep chipping at it, trying to find a way to turn that corner.

When I was on my honeymoon, I lost use of my right arm and right leg, and that's when we knew something was wrong. I was not totally paralyzed, but there was loss of sensation and feeling.

Nikolay Davydenko

Today, it was my mistake because we had different balls (than were used in Montreal and Cincinnati). I tried to make it different, my tension for strings was harder here and I tried to make no mistakes because the tension was hard and I had more control. I tried to come back but at 6-5 broke my string. I took my old racket and I lost in the tiebreak. I played really slow, Chela played good today and tried to make winners, and for me, if I play slow I can beat nobody.

When I was in the running for the role of Elphaba, I knew it was important to research and study as much background information as I could, so I got my head stuck into 'Wicked: The Life and Times of the Wicked Witch of the West' by Gregory Maguire, and I believe I lost many days, weeks, and months reading it - I was captivated!

Bob Nardelli

I have plenty of dream roles because there is so much I want to do, but my dream year would be to be in a single-camera comedy and then, on my hiatus, film a little low-budget indie drama.

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.

Larry Krantz

We respect the rights of Texans to have fun. But people need to realize that everyone pays when the state has to constantly stop what it's doing to repair this kind of damage. It takes away from our other responsibilities like building and maintaining roadways.

Ted Spadaro

We're going to try and slow them down some-you just don't stop those kind of people. You just give them different disguises on defense and try to keep them guessing.

Ron Dittemore

What's really important for us is that our home base is in L.A., and when we move to Toronto - where 'Suits' is filmed - we move as a unit and are always together in the same place.

Derek Roy

Dave Foley

I grew up in the suburbs of Toronto, where everything was in a strip mall.

Neil Meron

What the Toronto festival premiere did was to reinforce why we wanted to do this. People approached us and said they had no idea how talented Liza was.
