Universities and corporations lose hours of valuable information each day because it is too big a hassle and too expensive to capture that knowledge as it is exchanged.

Our enterprise customers tell us they are realizing a competitive advantage as they capture, process and access their most important asset -- organizational knowledge.

Rick Carlisle

We're going to see how he's feeling tomorrow.

Jim Calhoun

What this is for 64 teams is a great opportunity. It's a great opportunity for Connecticut. It's a great opportunity for us and it's a great opportunity for Albany.

Billy Donovan

What they've been able to do this year is great for basketball. Most teams don't get a chance to experience what they've been able to experience.

Charisma is the numinous aura around a narcissistic personality. It flows outward from a simplicity or unity of being and a composure and controlled vitality. There is gracious accommodation, yet commanding impersonality. Charisma is the radiance produced by the interaction of male and female elements in a gifted personality.

I'd love to see more equal representation of female and male cartoonists on the comics page.

Rick Spring

We've always set team goals. Making 100 points in a game isn't one of them, but if it happens it happens.

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.

Kevin Cato

We've always felt like our defense was one of the stronger points of our game. Our goal was to have a hand in their face for the full 94 feet of the floor and that would hopefully take away some of their shooting ability.

Dick Umile

When we were down 2-0 tonight, we were playing pretty well. The third goal was not very well played by us. The kid was out front all by himself. We dug ourselves a hole, that?s the disappointing part.

Chris Killingstad

We remain solidly on track to deliver our 2006 financial goals of double-digit earnings per share growth and mid to upper single-digit revenue growth. We continue to make progress on our medium-term goal of 9.5 percent operating margins.

Steven Gerrard

We're going to the final, that's the most important thing. Whether it was a goal or not, I'm sure people will comment on that, but we're happy we're going to Istanbul. Chelsea put us under pressure but we defended really well.

Wolfgang Petersen

We're getting the script in a few weeks, and if everything goes fine and that script goes in the right direction, it could indeed be my next one.

Kenneth More

In an upside down world, with all the rules being rewritten as the game goes on and spectators invading the pitch, it is good to feel that some things and some people seem to stay just as they were.

Kenny Troutt

I go to the farm generally every other week, but I'm on the phone with them every day, and I watch every race on TV. Not a day goes by when I'm not working on that.

Eugene Hutz

What we're making isn't folk music, but savage intellectualism. We speak a language of a new world community that understands cultures can relate. So people who still speak of nationalism and racism or what separates us, they are inadequate for this time. Evolution goes on.

Jim Mangia

What we're hoping is that this defeat for Buchanan is the beginning of a whole series of small and large defeats over the course of the next couple of weeks until Buchanan goes back to the Republican party where he belongs.

We will stay behind you all the way. You have a life partner for anything you want to do for the rest of your life with the National Guard.

Frank Mauro

What this data shows is that New York has the greatest gaps between wealth and poverty in the country.

What a great honor, ... Roberto Clemente may be the greatest humanitarian in the game of baseball. I commend the Clemente family for this award and I thank you from the bottom of my heart.

We would view with the greatest possible concern any such event, ... It would do Indonesia immense, perhaps irreparable damage.

Gore Verbinski

What's nice about him is that he has more confidence in swallowing a pebble and letting the ripples play on the surface, than in making a big splash. He's working less externally. His greatest moments are when he's not even aware of what's registering on his face.

H. Hunt

Working together as a community is the greatest thing we can do to combat these crimes. Even if we double the law enforcement officers that we have today, we still can't have officers on every corner of the street.

Jon Klein

We're honing the cast of 'American Morning' in order to focus on what the audience wants most and what CNN does best: the latest news delivered with the greatest intelligence, ...

Joe Becerra

We've a young team. We've got to be happy that we're still up at the top after seven games.

Kyle Hines

When we weren't winning, we were still working hard. It just didn't seem like we had all the pieces of the puzzle. We all believed sometime we'd click, and I'm happy it's now.

When it came up on the TV screen, yes, we were happy to be there, but it was a little disappointing.

Stanley Burrell

We're so used to going in there and being rowdy and feeling good after wins. But we're starting to get used to performing well on the road. We're starting to grow up. It's nice to see. We were still happy about the win, because it's a huge win. We have to refocus and get ready for the next big game.

We're so happy with how things have turned out.

David Esquer

We've always known that it's gonna happen. We just hoped it would happen while he was here. Because, he's just too skilled.

Kevin Jackson

We've always hoped that Page 2 would be a destination for people who wanted a good laugh and didn't take sports too seriously. Much of that was accomplished through parody, so it seemed natural that we'd be drawn to a product like the Onion. I think we've always had an admiration for what they do, and when we talked to the folks at the Onion, we found out that admiration was mutual.

Jim Hendry

We've always had an interest in Greg. He's certainly earned the right to pitch wherever he wants. We're hopeful he'd like to come back and finish where he started.

Miles Teller

When I was in high school, there was 'Superbad' and 'The Girl Next Door' and 'Wedding Crashers' and all these great movies. You hope to be a part of something that's smart, funny and in that Todd Phillips-vein. You want to make something like 'Superbad.' That movie was so good and so funny.

Mallory Dietrich

When it comes down to it, it's just a time you are trying to beat, no matter whose it is. Hopefully it will stay for a few years.

Steve-O

When I was a kid, I loved a heavy metal band called Motley Crue. I was thirteen when they came to my city, and I called every hotel in the Yellow Pages asking for a room by the name of their manager in hopes of meeting the band. After two or three hours of calling hotels, I got through, and the manager's brother answered the phone.

Jodi Howell

You don't lose a shooting touch; it just likes to go on vacation for a little bit. I've been working in the gym on my own. I think I'm back to where I was and hopefully I can improve that a little bit more.

Kevin Cato

We've always felt like our defense was one of the stronger points of our game. Our goal was to have a hand in their face for the full 94 feet of the floor and that would hopefully take away some of their shooting ability.

Jodi Howell

You don't lose a shooting touch; it just likes to go on vacation for a little bit. I've been working in the gym on my own. I think I'm back to where I was and hopefully I can improve that a little bit more.

Joseph Altuzarra

We're making clothes - we aren't saving the world. I'm not saying that designers aren't artists, but at the end of the day, we make clothes. Hopefully we make beautiful clothes with a message, but in the end it's for people to wear. I think that the hype of fashion has come down a level.

Bob DuPuy

We remain guardedly optimistic and are looking forward to receiving a positive response to our reapplication, hopefully within a matter of days.

DeAndre Rice

We're starting to build momentum heading into the tournament. If we start playing good now, hopefully it will carry over there.

Kevin Bentley

We're starting history, and we're getting this thing rolling. And hopefully we'll be able to do that for years to come.

DeAndre Rice

We responded. Hopefully this will carry over to the tournament.

S. Walker

We're getting the apartments furnished now. Hopefully within two weeks, we'll have everybody housed.

Tracey Mills

What they're doing now is more targeted marketing. One is cash incentives - some say it's the next wave after free checking - and the targeted marketing is a trend we've noticed for several years now.

Scott Bosse

When we had abundant cheap power there is less incentive to develop alternative sources of power. Now that we face scarce electricity supplies and much higher prices, that is changing.

Douglas Smith

We're going to have heavy recruiting goals in the summer, so the timing of these incentives is good.

Michiyoshi Kato

U.S. service industries data will be yet another fresh incentive to push up the dollar, strengthening expectations of Fed's further rate hikes.

Hans Kunnen

With the market buoyant, there is always the incentive to seek capital.

Miles Johnson

We feel that the incentive is at the right place right now to keep sales brisk.

Aiden Wilson Tozer

We have measured ourselves by ourselves until the incentive to seek higher plateaus in the things of the Spirit is all but gone.

Charlie Munger

Never, ever, think about something else when you should be thinking about the power of incentives.

Charlie Munger

Show me the incentive and I will show you the outcome

Jim Crumlish

When we were losing, going into practice every day was tough. You go in every day to practice knowing that it will be brutal. And when you are losing, it's that much worse. You don't get to see the benefits of all your hard work, as you do when you're winning.

Cory Lidle

When I was in Oakland, knowing that Billy had played the game meant a lot.

Pat Robertson

We're getting tons of calls from people not quite knowing what to do,

Tyoka Jackson

We're going to get him ready and knowing Big O, it won't take him much to get ready.

Martin Brodeur

We're going to face one of the top three teams, each first in their division, regardless of where you're at. The odds are if we finish sixth, the Rangers will be our first opponent, so that would be pretty exciting. Knowing what the other teams are, Ottawa and Carolina, I don't think there's one you want to pick over the other.

Zach Keene

When we can step on the court, knowing that we've been here before, it's huge. The nerves are always going to be there, but you have that confidence of saying 'hey, we've been here before, we can do it again,' it helps out tremendously.

Mark Mangino

What he does for our team, he does it better than most guys I've been around at this level. He has a knack for playing that outside-linebacker position. He has a knack for knowing who's supposed to block him, at what angle they're supposed to block him, and he has just a knack for defeating those angles.

Daniel Alfredsson

We believe we have a good chance this year, and we're going to make the most of it. It's real exciting to be able to be part of the playoffs again, knowing that we're one of the teams that has a chance to go all the way.

Gerald Richman

We believe very strongly that what occurred in this case was intentional, knowing wrongdoing because both the Republican Party and the supervisor of elections knew exactly what they were doing.

Tim Graham

We've always kind of made an agreement that our sub-varsity teams wouldn't leave the area. We might go to Shelton or Elma with our C-team, but we won't go to Tacoma.

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.

Ned Walker

We remain deeply concerned about any interest rate relief that allows another carrier to artificially mask its obligations, potentially paying nothing at all for many years, receive all of the benefits and ultimately leave the taxpayer to foot the bill.

Paul Hawley

We're going to shoot the video in Spain, and there'll be water involved -- and I'm going to leave it at that.

JR Inman

We're going to need a second or third option. Tonight, as far as scoring, yeah, we did leave Quincy.

Gareth Peirce

We've re-emphasized our concerns that this inquiry go from the bottom to the top and leave no stone unturned. It's been a chaotic mess and what we've asked the IPCC to find out is how much of it is incompetence and negligence, including gross negligence, and how much of it may be something more sinister.

Jim Tracy

What we're seeing right now is, in my mind, identical to what we saw last year, when it took him a few starts to get untracked, and then you see one quality start after another. His teammates recognize that's he gonna leave everything that he has on the field, and it's very easy to step up for a guy like that.

Philip Mangano

What we're saying (today) ... Macon is moving forward and we are not going to leave anyone behind.

Bruce Schroeder

What we're really concerned about is we're finding that nearly half the teachers leave in their first five years of teaching.

Susan Lyne

Not stepping over the bounds of modesty.

Al Pacino

All due respect, and trying to be as modest as I can be: I am a dancer.

Chinua Achebe

What is modesty but inverted pride?

Lorenzo Codogno

We believe that the long-awaited shift from soft to hard data is evidence of a recovery in euro zone private consumption has started, and will likely proceed gradually and modestly over the coming months, in line with the expected improvement in household real disposable income.

Michael Ching

We spoke to Cisco last night, and we do not think there is any change in its business. We believe the factors impacting Intel's results are largely immaterial to Cisco. Cisco has a very modest exposure of revenues to Europe.

Paul Jewell

We've asked again but with the price they're asking, it's silly money as they don't want to sell him.

Daron Malakian

When we were a club band, we always used to say, 'Man, if we ever see success, we'd like to open doors for other people, to push the boundaries and fully contribute something to art, to music, that is going to help it evolve instead of doing stuff for the sake of money or doing stuff for the sake of being popular.

Rev. Donaldson

When we went through it, we had nowhere to turn, no one to talk to who had a similar experience. Small, rural churches usually have no money and little or no insurance to rebuild. So we helped form an organization that gives guidance to pastors whose churches have burned.

Luis Suarez

When I was playing for Nacional in Montevideo, the players who lived outside the city would be given money by the club to get there and back on the bus.

Chelan Simmons

When I was little, I didn't know you got paid for acting. My parents put the money in the bank for me, but I just thought it was this fun thing that I was so excited to do. You got to be on the set and get a little bit of makeup and be on camera.

Ice Cube

When I was in N.W.A. and didn't get paid all the money I was owed, that's when the business side of showbiz hit me.

John Woo

When I was a kid I got so much help from the Church. When I was a kid, our family was so poor they couldn't afford me to go to school, so there was an American family that send the money to the church to support my school fees.

Stjepan Hauser

When I was a kid, I collected cactuses. I had hundreds of different kinds in my room. I was a weird child. Everyone was playing football, and I was collecting cactuses. I spent all my money on them. I had so many colors and shapes. I even gave them names.

Jonathan Potter

You don't lose money by appealing to fans.

Jim Grant

We've asked departments in the last two years to trim back and be as frugal as possible so we'd have the dollars to provide the services we need to provide.

Chris Hadfield

When I was nine, I wanted to be an astronaut but at that time there weren't any Canadian astronauts. You had to be American or Soviet. So many things will be possible in your lifetimes.

Richard Campbell

When it comes right down to the crunch, it's very possible that we're still going to have to import people at whatever price it will take, to bring them here to help us finish things off.

Peter Gallagher

When I was a child, nobody I knew of ever became an actor or entertainer - it was just not something that seemed possible for regular people.

Jim Wicklund

We remain positive based on economic activity and E&P spending; we're also positive on 2007 but see some risk to E&P spending given the potential squeeze on returns (with) a possible moderation in commodity prices in '07. Visibility remains too good to worry too early, however.

Harry Reid

We respectfully request that you reconvene hearings as soon as possible to take these witnesses sworn testimony about their roles in the Cheney energy task force and the recent run-up in American fuel prices,

Larry Davis

We're going to take it very slowly. Our objective is to see if it's possible for him to be ready Opening Day.

Jim Hall

We're going to run approximately 10 flight tests, ... A couple of those will try to replicate as closely as possible TWA 800.

Dusty Baker

We're going to give him as much playing time as possible this week, so we can make up our mind. I'm sure when you get to this point in your career you consider all the possibilities, and I'm sure he's doing some evaluation of his own abilities. So, yeah, these are important days for him.

Alfonso Scanio

We respect and defend the right of the Church to address questions of values, but it is very serious to receive only one of the candidates for prime minister just ahead of the ballot.

Jon Kutler

We're getting to the time in the cycle where there are very few contractors, especially at the prime contractor level. And, because of that, they have a significant amount of control over the process,

George Osborne

What this country needs is a Chancellor with his mind on the job not on inheriting the Prime Minister's crown.

Bruce Arena

When we demonstrate ratings, we will have an argument for prime time.

Anne Sweeney

What hasn't he done for prime time is more the question. I think he has brought a strong new creative spirit and the wonderful ability to take chances back to network prime-time television.

David Archer

What's most tragic is that this denial of basic education leads to over 1 million unnecessary child and maternal deaths a year. Moreover, children who have never seen the inside of a classroom are precisely those that face the most acute poverty, and should be the prime target of the international community if it is at all serious about realizing the United Nation's Millennium Development Goals of halving extreme poverty by 2015.

Dominique Moisi

The one who has perhaps gained the most is the prime minister, who stood for the state and managed to deliver a message of firmness together with a message of openness to society.

Viktor Yushchenko

The plot . . . involved discussion of the ownership of one of the major Ukrainian TV channels and in order to bring about this, the prime minister acted in such a manner,

Kathy Lively

We are prime for growth. We are fortunate to have REDCO (Regional Economic Development Corporation) and area towns with leadership that is dedicated to bringing new business into the area and retaining existing businesses.

Larry Brown

We've always cooked at the fire department to raise funds. We've probably cooked up a ton of barbecue. We decided let's do it competitively, and here we are,

Ted Sim

When we were fundraising to go down to the Detroit area, we figured we had to raise $10,000 to $15,000 to finance the trip. It's four nights in a hotel plus all the means.

Angeles Mastretta

When I was in my 20s, I wanted to be tough. I discovered that I didn't want to be the woman I was raised to be - a good, traditional wife. When I went out in the world to find a husband, I found that husbands weren't ready to accept the kind of woman I was going to be.

Ken Lynch

Tom was a brilliant chairman who raised thousands of pounds for the association and I am sure Mitchell will also do a great job.

David Kendall

We respectfully object to the committee's broad request for all information concerning all persons who have contributed or pledged more than $5,000 to the foundation. There are serious and substantial legal, precedential and public policy issues raised by this catch-all request.

Adam Gollner

We respect Band Aid's ability to raise so much money for relief efforts, but their lyrics seem so misguided and inappropriate. Africa isn't a land 'where nothing ever grows' and 'no rain nor river flows.' And how are lines such as, 'Well, tonight, thank God it's them instead of you' supposed to be helpful?

Charles Lee

We're going to take a careful look at the result to determine if there's any issue. I think that it raises a red flag. We have to look at that carefully to determine if there's something here.

Patrick Mason

We're going to see more software acquisitions at higher valuations. Stocks naturally will trade higher when you raise the bar.

Sammy Sawyer

We're going to raise some money and have some fun.
