Patrick Baker

When we got behind we knew they were going to try to hold the ball so we wanted to put some pressure on them. We tried our trap, we tried some man to man and I think we defended pretty well out of it but they made some big shots down the stretch and we didn't. Tonight they were the better team.

Sal Iannuzzi

We are pleased with our fourth-quarter performance and appreciate the hard work of Symbol associates.

CEO Luxton

We are pleased to be able to report that the operating loss in the first quarter narrowed significantly over the previous quarter. This reflects a reduction in selling and administrative expenses due to cost savings measures that we have implemented since the fiscal year began.

Michael Feldman

When I was a kid, I hated being talked to as a kid.

So I always talk to kids as if they were a person.

When we were 1-6, all we focused on was that we were better than that. We knew it; we just had to prove it. We've come a long way and it's great to be back to .500 and to know we'll get a home game in the tournament.

Andy Reid

You don't let it be a distraction. That is not what you do. There are going to be things that happen and you don't focus on those things. You focus on getting the football team ready to play and you handle the other things up front the way we do it.

Paul Gray

When it became obvious that they were one of the teams that we could be playing (in the regional) we made sure to scout a couple of their games. Jared Wood is a solid player.

Gillian Anderson

To my detriment sometimes. I can be very controlled - too controlled. It spills over into my life, and that's when it gets difficult.

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.

Clint Hurdle

We're going to give him a little more time to work his way out of it. He's an important part of the lineup without Todd. . . . He's not trying to pull everything. He's conscious of going to the right side. When he gets hot, he can do major damage.

We're going to get her times down faster once she gets in shape. She still has a ways to go on that, but she has a lot of natural ability.

Chris Lynch

We've always reached the hardcover buyer more than the paperback buyer.

Bob Morton

When we were making 'Arrested Development,' it was the hardest thing I'd ever done. You know, nobody was watching. We weren't getting feedback. The job wasn't paying very well. But the one thing I did feel confident about was: No one will ever be able to do this again. Because no one would be stupid enough to try.

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.

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.

Sam Taylor-Johnson

When I was out in Georgia doing photographs, I found myself trying to undo my own sense of composition. I'd think, 'Why do I want to take it like this? Is it because I want to take a beautiful picture?' It's quite hard to try and undo it.

Chelsea Peretti

When I was little, people would ask what my favorite color was, and I never knew. I find it's really hard to make decisive 'best' answers on what the 'best' of something is.

James Calvin

We're getting tons of calls on this. Customers are disappointed that RIM is putting this legal case before them.

Hani Durzy

When we asked them to show us a law to show it is unlawful, and they were unable to do so, we said they're legal as far as we're concerned.

Craig Holman

What he's doing here is frankly astonishing. This kind of coordination is obviously an attempt to get around legal contribution limits. The bottom line is that public policy is being made not by principle, but by payment up front.

Tom Jackson

What he said to me was that it's the right thing to do. It might be legally gray, but it's the right thing to do.

Michael Marrero

What has to happen in order for a house to be brought down are a lot of legal things. We have to provide a notice to the owners and that takes X number of days.

Jesse Jackson

What has not changed is the ballistics report saying the gun that Mr. Graham had is not the one that killed Mr. Lambert, that has not changed, the lack of positive identification has not changed, the lack of cross-examination has not changed, inadequate legal representation has not changed,

Brad Smith

We believe we have a set of principles that ensure we comply with all of our legal obligations in China and other countries and ensure we are consistent with the broad principles that the Internet creates and people's desire for free expression.

Bob Krabbe

We're going to fight that vigorously. If the company were to have its way, we would be looking at losing literally thousands of jobs to overseas labour. This is something that we have not seen at any other airline. United (Airlines) in its worst days has never tried to do this.

Kelly Hobbs

What they're missing is that Wal-Mart is helping thousands of Americans gain access to private health plans.

Adnan Pachachi

We found him obviously tired and haggard, unrepentant, even defiant, justifying crimes saying he was a just but firm ruler, our answer was that he was unjust ruler responsible for death of thousands of people.

We believe we have a very good chance of winning this weekend. What's important to me is that the many thousands of Scots' fans traveling to Dublin do so not just in hope but with a genuine expectation of us doing something special again.

Ron Dittemore

We are getting thousands of pieces of information and the teams are working through each piece deliberately.
