Famous Quotes & Sayings

Phil Garner

We are a different club and we are probably not as offensively as potent as we were last year. We certainly don't have the possibility to break a game open with the long balls like we did last year. We're a little bit younger in our offense, but somehow we found a way. Our pitching is more solid than it was last year from top to bottom. Our bullpen has been good on the balance of the year and having Andy Pettitte healthy has helped our rotation quite a bit. We are probably a little stronger in the pitching department and probably a little weaker in the offense department.

Jade Jagger

Until my early teens, I lived with my mother in New York, and I spent a lot of time in the company of her friends, mostly artists and designers, such as Andy Warhol, Ross Bleckner and Francesco Clemente, none of whom had kids, so I was like their shared child.

Jim Provuncher

We're still a run-oriented team. We take pride in our offensive line. Even with a line that was 4/5th new last year we ran for 2,000 yards. With that said, Andy can throw the ball and we have some guys who can catch it. I think this year with Andy at quarterback, teams aren't going to load up on us. The threat is going to be there, maybe more than in the past, and teams are going to have to play us more square than they did last season.

Kate Spade

Every time I go to the market, Andy says, 'Don't forget the Triscuits!'

Judd Apatow

Ultimately, it's about a guy who's afraid to take a risk. Our hope is that Andy will be an inspiration to others. He's like the Lance Armstrong of virgins.

Brad Ausmus

We have to go out and win with what we have. We know Roy and Andy are 1-2 around here, and that's the way it was before Roger got here. We need people to step up and perform, but we're not worried. Roy and Andy are a pretty good pair of pitchers.

Larry Tofanelli

When everything is lined up, you always look at the kicker to make sure he's ready. Usually Andy would give me a nod, or something, as a signal. But on that kick he never looked at me. He was totally focused on the spot.

Peter Jackson

One thing I discovered in seeing the completed 'King Kong' for the first time, is that Kong is even stronger than I thought he would be, based on Andy's original performance. One of the things I liked best about it is that Kong is now a gorilla, not a monster. Andy brought that out.

Jonathan Taplin

Ninety percent of the people on 'Survivor' you never hear from again either so, you know, Andy Warhol was right. They had their 15 minutes of fame - and that was it.

Kendall Ponder

John Parks

When I was in school 20 years ago, it wasn't all that important. And if the coach was mad at you, denying you water was something they used as punishment.

I thought Clint Eastwood was cool in all the western movies, but I'm not gonna drive somewhere he's at and stand in line to see him. I told Missy, my wife, 'The only person I'd stand in line for is God Almighty. You made the universe? All right, I'll get in line!'

Alison Owen

John Lee Hancock is someone that I had admired from afar. I think he is a wonderful director... in the tradition I would say both of Clint Eastwood and Frank Capra.

Neal Asher

Gemmell's name guarantees a satisfying story and a thumping good read. I recommend all his heroic creations - 'Druss the axeman,' 'the Jerusalem man,' among others - but my favourite has to be 'Waylander': Clint Eastwood with a crossbow and the same 'Make my day, punk' attitude.

William Earl Brown

My dad traveled a lot, so I only usually saw him on weekends, growing up. His favorite actors in the world were Clint Eastwood and Burt Reynolds. If Clint or Burt had a movie out, we would go to the movies. He didn't like movies, generally, unless Clint or Burt were in them.

Robert Osborne

You see a Clint Eastwood movie, and you might not know if it's from Universal or Warner Bros. or another studio. He has affiliations with so many studios now, but there was a time when you'd just look at a movie and think, 'Oh, that's a Warner Bros. film.'

Rob Atkinson

Andy Eastwood is our new offensive coach and he's helping us with our man up offense. We had trouble scoring with that situation last year. We've got some great plays this year and our offense is much stronger.

We've avenged all we can of Hitler's wickedness ... we must now look at the equal or greater wickedness that we've seen in the genocide in Cambodia, in the military killers of Latin America, in the blackness of the hideousness of African dictators like Idi Amin , ... The Justice Game.

Paul Stamm

We've approached the other trusts and have gotten a verbal commitment, but they would like to be able to be the monies that put us over the top in the project. This has a great chance of being a reality and we really need $10 and $25 donations from people in the community.

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.

Wayne Chrebet

We've always taken great pride in going to other people's stadiums and sticking it to them. We have a great opportunity this week to not only show ourselves, but show everybody with a national game, that were certainly better than a 2-4 team.

Joe Balogh

We've always said that you can't win the league in the first round of the season but you can lose it. I think that is the great part of playing in the NCC.

Mitch Kupchak

We're sorry to have to let Slava go even though it was unlikely that he would've been able to play the rest of the season because of his injury. He's been a positive addition to us for six years, including helping us win two championships. We thank him for his contributions and wish him well.

Brian Cresta

We're so much interested in seeing the younger generation helping the next generation because that generation has been so helpful in the past.

In high school, I had a couple girlfriends who had very extreme eating disorders. Anorexia and bulimia. And in college as well. It's just heartbreaking. As someone going through it, it's heartbreaking. And as a friend who's helping a friend going through it, it's heartbreaking. It's a real, real disease.

Burt Rutherford

We've always seemed to be able to overcome, and the last two weeks it just wasn't happening. It was disappointing, because we know we're better than that.

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.

Philip Goodhart

We've always had a broader cultural coverage, particularly in the last three or four years We have short stories in every issue. We have more of an interior life. Perhaps the mistake was not to make more noise about that in the earlier issues.

We've always respected Israel's right to defend itself, including going after armed groups and armed men in some of these areas. But we've always said they need to do that in a manner which has the utmost care to avoid harm to civilians, particularly when they're conducting operations in heavily populated areas. And we've said that often results in tragedies and numerous deaths. And that appears to be what's happened again.

Dan Beck

We've always had an aggressive e-commerce strategy. Since our first Web site in 1994, we realized a Web site was more than just a corporate brochure. It had to be an advanced business tool providing everything companies need to design, print and manage their documents online.

When we were growing up, old man jenkins would never fail to come out every morning to nail tadpoles to a wheel, spin it around and around, like a wheel of fortune, and then say, "Tadpoles! Tadpoles is the winner!" We all thought he was crazy, but then, we had some growing up to do.

When I was manager (of Liverpool) in England the national team coach was much more understanding.

After two or three hours of calling hotels, I got through, and the manager's brother answered the phone.

Elvis Presley

When I was a child, ladies and gentleman, I was a dreamer. I read comic books, and I was the hero in the movie. So every dream I ever dreamed has come true a hundred times...I learned very early in life that: "Without a song, the day would never end; without a song, a man ain't got a friend; without a song, the road would never bed -- without a song." So I keep singing my song.

We've always got a chip on our shoulder, they always say the offense has to pull us through. But in order to win games in the playoffs, we knew our defense had to step up.

Pat Ambrose

When we were patient on offense and got a good shot, we did well. When we played too fast and didn't get a good shot, we let Zion back into the game. Benny did a real nice job for us. He wanted to win.

Becky Carlson

When we went to the half-court trap it bothered them and we picked up our defensive intensity. We were able to get some steals. We kept running the offense and got great shots, sometimes they just didn't fall for us but we had a good stretch at the end of the quarter.

Brian Brandtner

We're starting to figure out our groove a little bit better on offense -- what we're looking to give, what we're looking to do. When you get the shots you want, a lot more times than not you're going to score.

Greg Hawk

We're going to score some runs this year, you can count on that. Timmy is a big key to our club, but we have a really potent offense overall so we'll be quite all right. We've got a good freshman core and the big hitters to drive them home so I like our chances. We are going to compete for one the top spots in our league and before this year is over, they'll know the names of these guys.

Mike Shula

We're going to put importance on the depth chart through the jerseys. We talked to the guys who have the white jerseys on offense and the crimson jerseys on defense about how you have to fight every day to hold on to those jerseys. We want it on their minds. We want to create an atmosphere that we have more competition that we've ever had.

Jim Calhoun

We're going to need some help from some of the guys that are struggling. Josh (Boone) is struggling a little bit. Certainly Denham (Brown) is struggling a lot. We're going to need those guys' offense to help us.

Willie Maryland

We're going to have a good front line and hopefully that does a lot for our offense and defense. For the first time we will be able to control the net. Our offense will get the ability to hit it over the blocks.

Robby Wine

We're going to go with what I hope to be our main lineup. The order may change a little bit, but we're going to put a combination of offense and defense out there and we're going to let it go.

George Campbell

We've always made it a point to be strong from the goal out. Defense is always a priority, but these kids have offensive talent that can't be denied.

Sean Miller

We're going to try our best to provide as much help to the guy guarding him on that area of the floor. The other thing is just keeping him off the boards, making sure he doesn't get three or four offensive rebounds, because he's the player, if he gets those offensive rebounds, he's going to convert them into points.

Scott Gardiner

We're going to go after them by doing the same things we've talked about all year. And that's tightening up in our own zone, opening it up in the offensive zone like we have been the past month or so, and 60 minutes of effort.

Kendrick Meek

We need to begin an all-out diplomatic offensive on Darfur in order to prepare the way for a peacekeeping force that can ensure protection for the people of Darfur.

Ron Artest

When we are clicking on the offensive end, making shots, you get your teammates involved. That's what I was trying to do tonight.

Jeff Johnson

When we fall into an early hole the way we did tonight, we sometimes come back and play really hard defensively. That wasn't really the case tonight. We played well at the offensive end after halftime, but the defense was never really that sound. That early lead Oswego East built just was more than we could overcome.

Sammy Mejia

When we cut it to three, that was one of the few moments in the game where we were actually being aggressive on the offensive end.

Ben Wallace

When we got out there and are active on the defensive end that allows us to get easy baskets on the offensive end. Taking care of the basketball and getting set defense, that's when we're playing Pistons basketball.

Ron Gardenhire

When we get men into scoring position or on base, it's like we go into defensive mode instead of offensive mode. I don't know how to get guys out of it.

Jim Gaylor

When we weren't scoring early in the game, Drew kept us in it. We made a few a plays there for him. He mixed his pitches well. He's a competitor. He's not an overpowering guy, but he's got good stuff.

Marty Schottenheimer

When I was playing, it was 10 or 12 plays that determined the outcome of a game. Now, because of the balance of talent in the league, it's come down to three or four plays a game. All you're looking for is to be in a position where you have a chance to win at the end. 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.

Robbie Tobeck

When it comes down to it, they threw the ball and ran the ball on three plays better than we did.

Tommy Haas

When it comes down to it, he plays fantastic tennis, he moves unbelievably well.

Wayne Chrebet

When it comes down to it, everyone is just trying to get their plays and get to the season healthy. I don't think it'll be anything too crazy.

David Henley

When it came down to crunch time, their kids made the plays and ours didn't.

Matt Bowen

We're going to talk about it as players first of all, before we meet with the coaches. That's not the way we play defense. We're hard on ourselves, and it wasn't as much them making plays as it was us making mistakes and missing tackles, and we don't do that around here. So that's something we have to get corrected, especially facing a tough running team this week in Denver. We don't do that stuff.

Chauncey Billups

We're going to run some decoys for him. We're not going to run plays for him.

Vance Belew

We're going to need other people to step up and make the plays that Steven makes.

Jim Gaylor

When we weren't scoring early in the game, Drew kept us in it. We made a few a plays there for him. He mixed his pitches well. He's a competitor. He's not an overpowering guy, but he's got good stuff.

Theo Brunner

We're more balanced scoring without Evan in the lineup. Everyone stepped up for us tonight and we're still a good team without Evan. Other teams don't recognize that and we just need to show them like we did tonight.

Fred Thacher

We're starting to click at the right time, and I think that's key. We've got five kids on the floor at all times that are capable of scoring in double digits.

Jay Trousdale

We're getting there. But I'd like to see even more consistency from out bench and more scoring from everyone on the floor.

Keegan Bradley

To flight approach shots lower with the scoring clubs - what I consider my 7-iron through wedges - I stand two or three inches closer to the ball than normal.

Jim Bolla

When we attacked their pressure we were fine. But 75 percent of the game, we let their press bother us. When we played around with their press, we got into our scoring area with 10 or 12 seconds left (on the 30-second shot clock) and we had to rush a shot.

John Schweitz

When we closed the deficit to two points, however, we were unable to take advantage of our scoring opportunities.

Rod Barnes

When we can go inside to Curtis, he's good at scoring with the basketball. I've really focused this year on our offense. We're a little behind on defense.

Scott Coval

When we had 70 points, I thought if we could get the game into the 80s, we'd have a good chance. We were going up and down and then we stopped scoring the last 21/2 minutes and we ended up with 70.

Richard Boucher

We've always made clear that we felt that Somalia and the situation that existed there made it a potential haven for terrorists.

Jeff Green

We're monitoring the situation closely and staying in touch with our suppliers.

Phil Jackson

We remind our players that this is something that was a special night in a heated situation but it's not going to be a steady diet for us. The onus on Kobe is to stay inside the team offense. The onus on the players is to pick it up a little bit better.

Anne DiFrancesco

We're meeting because we're very concerned about the school situation in town.

Dashon Goldson

We're making a lot more tackles than we should have to, but if we get put in that situation, then we just have to make them. That's how it is: If we're put in that situation we have to make them.

Dan Glickman

We're spending today, depending upon which agency of government, significantly more money on fire preparedness and treatment than we were spending in 1993, ... I think the real issue is that we have a situation that has been unparalleled in the last 50 years right now, and that has to do with what I call 'the perfect storm' phenomenon of weather and fuel loads.

Tommy Amaker

We're going to review those situations when we get the opportunity to do so.

Erik Autor

We're going to monitor this situation very carefully over the next several months. This is a case where what happens in Washington can have as much effect on cargo as what happens on the docks.

Greg Bensel

We're going to go to San Antonio and set up our operations. The players will have a few days off to try to deal with their families, deal with their situations at home and try to get their families to San Antonio, and then we'll go to work next week to prepare for the season. We're talking to the league office and looking at conflict dates with certain sites, and trying to figure out what we're going to do.

Lola Baker

When we were foul trouble and they drove to the basket, I told our team not to foul. I'm surprised they didn't take it to the basket more.

Jim Donovan

Tom was outside during some of it and decided to go back in the house when he was having trouble standing up.

Paul Woolpert

We're soft. If we don't toughen up, we're in a lot of trouble.

Randy Graham

When we have younger people here, then that's sometimes when the trouble comes. Any time you have a nightclub, you're subject to anything happening at any time.

Jim McCarthy

When we had that warm weather in January, we knew we were going to be in trouble.

Bryan Turner

We bid this project right before everybody started having trouble with the steel. We're very fortunate, otherwise it would have cost 30 percent more than it would right now.

Dick Bartholdi

We are getting more shots than we ever have. But we always have trouble scoring.

Greg Harrison

What's just as amazing is that she had to start work on the last season of 'Friends,' so she was going back and forth between our shooting locations and the studio, and from bubbly Monica to the deeply troubled Sophie.

B. R. Hayden

We're going to live on the edge. My spikes will have chalk on them.... We're pretty aggressive within the law. As a professional, I'm troubled if I'm not using the full authority allowed by law.

Greg Garrison

We've battled adversity all year and have been in those kind of situations. Our kids know they're never out of a game. But it looked pretty bleak there for a bit.

Tony Haynes

We've averaged 20-plus wins a year for the last five years, five straight NCAA tournaments. Kids graduate. Hey, that's a successful program.

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.

Shawn McDowell

We've always thought this senior class had the physical skills, it was a matter of them jelling together as a unit. A year can make a big difference both mentally and physically and the kids have really matured.

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.

Sean Cotter

We've always felt Heidi was a real good hitter, and she's definitely a feared hitter in the conference, but it just seemed like she just wasn't able to put it together for long stretches. And this year she's just been in a really good place, I think, both physically and mentally.

Ray Preston

When we were talking to him, he didn't want to commit to how long. So I said, 'Try a year and see how it works out.' Fortunately he's been there since.

John Tesh

When I was playing piano, it was like, 'I'm going to write a song using all the white keys.' My music director, who knew my jazz background, suggested I try big-band music, so we spent a year experimenting with it in concert, and the audience reaction was really good.

Mike Curb

When I was lieutenant governor, Jerry Brown was governor and you might recall that he spent just about a year of my term out of the state.
