When we engraved the 442 names on the back of the medals - that's when the reality sinks in. Everybody in the whole plant had to be involved to check the names and match the medals with the cases.

But that's what we do - what we manufacture generally has a higher degree of meaning to those that receive it. It's not just any award.

Deana Carter

Kathryn Schulz

Bill Griffith

I just became one with my browser software.

Nick Meyer

I don't believe that the current standard in user interface is 'how it should be,' and I've got a school full of college students that agree with me.

Steve Squyres

When we first touched down at Gusev Crater on the night of January 4, 2004, the Columbia Hills seemed impossibly far away. It was a necessary place for us to get to, though, because as we looked across the plains we quickly realized these plains were made of basaltic lava. This was stuff that was interesting but did not tell us what we really sought to know about Gusev Crater, and that is whether there had been water here. So in order to find something, in order to find something different, we had to make that mile-and-a-half drive.

Paul Stamm

Joe Hudak

We've always wanted to try to figure out ways to improve our attendance. There's no doubt it's a great advantage if you can have a lot of people in the stands cheering for you and cheering against your opponents.

Jonathan Mayers

We've always tried to reflect people's diverse music collections. We don't want to dismiss our core in any way, but . . . as great as Widespread Panic has been to us and has been a really big part of what we've done, we can't have Widespread Panic every single year.

William Shakespeare

T'is true: there's magic in the web of it...

Chelsea Peretti

When I was in New York, I got to see Joan Rivers do an hour of material, and it blew my mind. I don't remember how old she was at the time, but she just had this edgy hour that had so much funny stuff in it, and she was so fearless. If you only watch her on the red carpet, you don't get a sense of what a legendary standup comedian she is.

Scottie Reynolds

When it comes down to playoffs, it don't matter how ugly it is, it don't matter what you do, you are going to be remembered by wins and losses. We know if we slip up one time, it's over.

Gary McClure

You don't like anybody to beat you too much. I don't have a long memory. And as an athlete, you can't have too long of a memory. You've got to move on.

Gary defines that description. Getting him in New Orleans sets the tone for the rest of the additions to my coaching staff.

Tyler Oakley

When it came to 'Binge,' it wasn't my intention to get on a little soapbox and have a teaching moment. It was more, 'Here are things that have happened to me; here's what I've learned from it. If you'd like to learn from it too, great; if you just like the entertainment aspect, that's fine too.'

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.

Ken Warwick

We've asked this question ourselves time and time again.

We've asked for a meeting with the sheriff numerous times, and he never has any time or even the courtesy to return my phone calls. This is very upsetting to me.

We've always treated the historical context of a particular time as a kind of sidebar to any discussion about business leadership. But we've found that context is far more salient than we ever imagined.

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.

Scott Rolen

We've always had a tough time playing them.

Andy Watson

We've always had a plan. As the years go along, you revise it every year, every six months or as needed. Every time there's a structure change, you have to update the plan, and with environmental changes.

Katie Aselton

What I get really excited about are movies that I connect with emotionally. 'Deliverance' was on TV, and they don't really make movies like that anymore, just simple and scary. The truly scary thing is, 'I'm going to threaten your life, I'm going to threaten the people you love. What are you going to do about it?'

Jay Feaster

What has happened in the past is truly ancient history. Now the objective is to come in here and have a solid training camp. ... We can't afford to get caught up in the hype. It's about having to do it again. You can't rely on what you did 18 months ago.

Jillian Messenger

We are getting better ever game. The other coaches are telling us that, the umpires are telling us that, that we're coming around and we truly are.

Kelly Leonard

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. We get a lot of people at Second City who don't know they're coming to an Actors' Equity theater. A lot of marketing we're doing is promoting Red Scare without the Second City name or the Denver Center name.

Tim Ehrgott

We're going to find a different system that works for us, even if that costs us some money to do that. You want to make sure you know what you have in the classroom.
