Roger Bailey

When I was in my teens and 20s, I looked to older Italian and French women. They always seemed so incredibly attractive to me because of their confidence.

Bob Romeo

We've averaging 61 points per game, but the thing that makes me the proudest about this team is its defense. We've held teams to an average of 31 points per game. A lot of players get to play (as a result of big leads), and that means the kids on the bench are doing a good job defensively as well.

Mitchell Hurwitz

When I was on 'The Golden Girls,' we'd have eight scenes per show. And when 'Seinfeld' came along, they went to, like, 30 scenes a show, which was revolutionary. 'Arrested Development' has probably got 60 scenes per show. It just keeps emerging as this more and more complex thing. I always try to keep it very simple at its heart.

Dave Tippett

When I was in the IHL there were a few teams that used to do that. Some goaltenders just have a knack for breakaways and it can give your team a little bit of a boost. You have to know your personnel before you can make those changes and obviously Craig thinks Morrison is the guy on breakaways.

Jonathan Maberry

Drew Thompson

We're getting used to the pressure we're going to face all year long. I'm pleased that we keep finding a way to win. But we didn't play close to our potential tonight.

Stan Conte

We're going to play a lot off of what Barry tells us, because he's the only one who knows how his knee is going to feel. It's always going to be a day-to-day, week-to-week, month-to- month thing. You can't help but be pleased that he came here, he did some good stuff, he left, and we'll see how it is tomorrow.

Gene Chizik

What we're really pleased with is that they played hard. We tried to execute our defense, but we played a lot of base defense. Obviously, we have a lot of work to do on some things.

Steve Sanger

We?re pleased with our performance in the second quarter. The 3% net sales gain was on top of a 4% increase in last year?s second quarter, and all three of our business segments posted sales growth for the period.

We are a little disappointed we did not win the match. Our guys are competitive and they will continue to work on their game. We have not posted the kind of score I think we can.

Jim Wicklund

I was posted to China in the summer of 1988, which was the greatest time ever, I think, to have been in China.

Manson Hill

We're going to need them to play with the same kind of fire and emotion against Carrollton that they did in the fourth quarter against Elbert. They have been leaders all year. This senior class has shown a lot of leadership all year and we're going to need it.

M. Wolfe

We're going to go into Albany and try to go 6-1 (in quarter points). If we can do that then we can come home to Boise in front of our great fan base. I think 14 or 15 quarter points is what it's going to take to get into the finals.

Katie Leclerc

I wasn't sold on 3-D until it was in my own home. The images jump out at you, even more so than in the theater, because you're in tighter quarters and you're closer to the TV, so it feels like the depth is very dramatic.

Richard Kogan

Matthew Fassler

We remain concerned with the company's longer-term positioning, given its choppy sales showing despite significant store-level investment, and its poor return on capital.

When we were up seven at halftime, coach told us to keep playing our game. We knew we had to keep rolling and in the second half we just shot lights out.

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.

Cedric Redmond

When we were going into the locker room at halftime, we heard some fans saying that we're going to fall apart in the second half. We wanted to make sure that didn't happen.

Mike Mastroianni

When we were down 11 at halftime, I wasn't happy; but I thought we still had a shot. We took them out of their rhythm in the second half and that was the difference.

Jermaine Spencer

When we went in the locker room, we said we weren't pushing. We weren't getting as hard after them as we should. In the second half, we brought the fight to them. Instead of backing down and letting them do what they want to do, we made them step up and play -- play defense and make tougher shots.

Barbara Boxer

To my constituents, today's hearing is about shared sacrifices in tough times versus oil company greed, ... Working people struggle with high gas prices and your sacrifices appear to be nothing.

Samuel Bodman

We're going to go through a very challenging time the next six months, is my guess, ... Both in terms of gasoline availability and (prices of) natural gas and heating oil, we're going to have some problems.

Katie Aselton

I'd like to make mistakes on my own dime and not have a herd of people tell me what I'm doing wrong. and I'm also still trying to find and develop my voice as a filmmaker, and I think that's easier to do on your own terms than trying to satisfy a bunch of people that are paying for the movie.

Marc Levesque

What we're seeing in terms of currency movements - and it will probably continue at least over the near-term - is a shift in global monetary policy expectations. There's a gearing-down of expectations for Fed tightening, coupled with increased tightening expectations elsewhere.

John Cornyn

What this does is serve our national interest from the standpoint of increased security. It deals with our economic needs in terms of the work, but it also, I think, helps to address some of the root causes of illegal immigration by encouraging people to return with the savings and skills they've acquired in the United States.

Katie Montgomery

We've barely had enough to go five-on-five, but we're ready to be aggressive and do whatever it takes to win. We've beaten tough teams this season. We know how to double-team and help each other out. We just have to be focused and work hard.

Scott Rolen

We've always had a tough time playing them.

Dave Klingel

When we were at the drawing for the tournament seeds last week, we were praying that we wouldn't have to face Meade. We didn't play well against them during the season and we knew they would be a tough team to face early in the tournament.

Jermaine Spencer

When we went in the locker room, we said we weren't pushing. We weren't getting as hard after them as we should. In the second half, we brought the fight to them. Instead of backing down and letting them do what they want to do, we made them step up and play -- play defense and make tougher shots.

Todd Walker

When it comes down to who's playing second, it's going to be their own opinion. I can't put words in anybody's mouth. It's whatever they want. I just have to make it tough on them, to do the best I can this month.

Mark Few

When it all shakes out and these teams play on, it's going to be the toughest non-conference schedule in the country.

Jared Voss

Tony is an all-day tough kid. We have a lot of confidence in him to get out of those tough situations. I'm not surprised he came through today.

Barbara Boxer

To my constituents, today's hearing is about shared sacrifices in tough times versus oil company greed, ... Working people struggle with high gas prices and your sacrifices appear to be nothing.

Jim Lee

Tom's financial expertise was extremely important in our business. He got us through some tough times and I selfishly wanted him to come back to us.

Gary Crane

What they've done is take the other younger kids under their wings and give them leadership. We're not the most athletic team, but something's working for us.

Helio Castroneves

Unfortunately, I think we made the wrong choice on our race setup, and the Marlboro Team Penske car had a tremendous push in Turns 3 and 4. Those corners were my biggest problem. I could barely touch the throttle going through there. The team made front wing adjustments on both of our pits stops, but it didn't really help. All considering, I'm pretty happy with a fourth-place finish.

Mark Kelly

We're doing a lot of inspection on the leading edge of our wing on 114 and 121, the first two flights.

Sally Smith

We're pleased with second quarter results, especially our ability to drive same-store sales gains in the face of tough comparisons. In terms of profitability, we posted a 47% increase in diluted earnings per share for the quarter, boosted by lower fresh chicken wing prices.

With love's light wings did I o'er-perch these walls, for stony limits cannot hold love out

O for a horse with wings!

William Shakespeare

True hope is swift, and flies with swallow's wings.

You are a lover. Borrow Cupid's wings and soar with them above a common bound.

I could have spread my wings and done a thousand things I've never done before.
