Mike Ryan

We're so dependent on foreign capital that, if you could see any weakness in the dollar it could come on Friday with the trade numbers. If we see a sharply above consensus reading for trade, there could be some concern about the sustainability of that trade gap and that could certainly weigh on the dollar.

Bill White

We believe that the most reasonable interpretation that you'll be able to draw from the evidence is that Courtney had come into the room and had seen this struggle and had turned around to go back to the back of the house and was struck once in the head and fell.

Krista Sanchez

I was talking to somebody about this the other night. How would you guard us? Do you put a big man on Courtney and hope to double down and cause her to turn it over. But there are so many other people who can score. What do you do?

Tim Walsh

He wore out, I think, at the end. The kid plays with so much heart. I thought Carlos and Armando, and we switched Courtney on him at the end, those kids really did a nice job making him work.

Jim Whitesell

We think Courtney can step in and contribute right away. He comes from and excellent junior college program that traditionally is a national power. We are thrilled to be bringing a Chicago product back home and this is proof of our commitment to recruit the Chicago area. Courtney will fit in nicely as both a basketball player and as a student. We are excited to add him to the program.

Mark Gordon

I can't remember the last time she threw one away. That's one of our press breakers that we work on. We drop Courtney back because she's usually quicker than anyone the other team has.

Tommy Amaker

He's doing his part when he's being doubled. He just needs to be a little more aggressive off the ball in terms of when the ball goes up that he go get it and offensive rebound. Sometimes if you feel you're being doubled, you're less aggressive and that's not the formula we want from Courtney after the double-team.

Allison Hill

My role was to contact the celebrities. I knew that these people get so many requests that I really needed to do something that stood out. So I went to Hoffman's Chocolates and had them do a chocolate star. Then I put my letter on top of that. The first round I sent out 25 chocolate stars with letters packed in coolers. I figured everyone loves chocolate and it would get people's attention. Considering how many we sent out, the response has been pretty unbelievable. Courtney Cox sent a handwritten thank-you note. Isn't that incredible?

Sherri Coale

I think women's basketball hinges on not just the play of, but the personalities of, its superstars. I think Courtney and Candace fit that bill. But as far as a head-to-head rivalry, they don't play the position. It's kind of like Kobe and Shaq. It's different. They're both really, really good, but they aren't going to guard each other.

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.

Stephen Horn

We found that 70 percent of these activities are still in progress, ... Yet even with the additional weight placed on these criteria, more than half of the 24 departments and agencies earned 'A's' this quarter. Just as you would not grade college seniors on the same set of criteria expected of college juniors, our expectations for this quarter rose.

Lindsay McCargar

We had 10 errors and only gave up three earned runs. It was pretty bad. We didn't show up -- period. But I know the kids would bounce back and they did against Amity. They we were tentative and it was a different demeanor (Wednesday).

Steve Spurrier

We felt like Blake is much better prepared mentally, physically. He's had an excellent summer working out, and it's clear to all of us here that he's our best guy to go out there. So when it's obvious, we've named him the starter. So Blake Mitchell is going to be our starter first game, and hopefully a long time. We'll go from there. Back-ups we don't know yet, we're trying a lot of guys right there. But Blake's earned it and he's our starter.

He shoots it well and he gets to the basket. Keegan is real active and is real solid around the basket. And their guard (Freeman) does a nice job of running the team.

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.

Trent Rollins

Tom should have won that match. He was 14-5 and gets pinned. I don't know what happened there, either.

Terri Bushman

We're so small, everyone has to be involved in everything. These are all volunteers. No one gets a dime and they're spending their own money on gas and babysitters as well as other donations to the play.

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.

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.

At the beginning of my career as a writer, I felt I knew nothing of Chinese culture. I was writing about emotional confusion with my mother related to our different beliefs. Hers was based in family history, which I didn't know anything about. I always felt hesitant in talking about Chinese culture and American culture.

Jose Rizal

China will consider herself fortunate if she succeeds in keeping herself intact and is not dismembered or partitioned among the European powers that are colonizing the continent of Asia.

Katie Couric

Wake up with Diane instead. Katie has fallen victim to her stylists.

Byron Katie

Forgiveness is discovering that what you thought happened, didn’t.

Byron Katie

Susan Dunn

We've asked the congregation a lot of different things during this period, getting opinions, because we want the whole body to be working toward the same goals.

Joan Berry

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 appointed a committee to look at our needs. We post the meetings and the public is welcome to come and voice their opinion. The public is always welcome. We need to find enough property where we can build as we need. We'll get it done.

When I was a kid, I loved a heavy metal band called Motley Crue.

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

Norman Blake

When I was a kid I listened to a lot of punk music, but then along came Orange Juice, ... They really broadened my musical perspective. They were self-deprecating and had a great sense of humor. And they sounded like Velvet Underground meeting Al Green. They called themselves 'the sound of young Scotland,' a play on Motown's 'Sound of Young America.'

Lauri Hakala

When it comes down to it we play well as a team. I think we were more consistent in the critical moments toward the end.

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.

We wrestled pretty well the first round. We had some moments of despair, but overall we had a pretty good round.

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.

Patrick Arney

We're just not playing on all cylinders. We're misfiring here and there, with moments of brilliance and moments where we're just not good. But we've got a tough game (today). Harlingen High is going to be ready for us. We're the ones that knocked them out of the playoffs last year, and I hope my girls are ready because they look good this year.

Susan Dunn

We've asked the congregation a lot of different things during this period, getting opinions, because we want the whole body to be working toward the same goals. And we believe that the church should get outside its walls and reach out into the community and meet needs of people that live around the church and in the same town, as well as other places beyond our boundaries.

Donald Rumsfeld

We've always known that there are people who've tried to infiltrate the various security forces and get to close access to places they ought not to be. There's nothing new about that that I know of.

We're making an effort here to contain the fire. We've seen it from a couple of different places but we don't know the extent of it. The teams are in the process now of trying to fight that fire and get it under control.

We're spending more money on this than any other promotion in UPN history. They've delivered to us a great pilot, and we want to get this out in as many places as we can.

Sean Kinney

We're going to go and play the songs one more time. It seems like the right time, so I figure we'll go out and play a few gigs and see where it goes. I think we might just show up in assorted places in the U.S. in the next few months without much notice and play some clubs and little theaters, and then go to Europe and play these festival gigs. Beyond that, we don't know at this point.

Jerry Conway

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. Both teams have something at stake. Both teams want to move on. There is no feeling like it. I've been a 16, a 15, a 1, and I've been all places in between. Each one is exciting.

Steve Adams

What they're doing is simply using our fax and voice broadcasting systems to deliver one message to all these different places at once so it's a consistent message, it's timely and reaches everybody at the same time.

Brian Billick

We've always talked about the pressure from the outside and contrasting that with Terrell Suggs . If that's a nickel role, you're talking 15-25 snaps. He's capable of doing more, but we have a lot of assets here to balance that out. If we can use him more, we will.

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.

Holly Johnson

When we were practicing for Italy that was one of my main things I talked to Coach Sue and Coach (Cori) Close about - how do I bring that leadership in that two spot? I think it's still coming up and being encouraging and still being positive and energetic.

David Brown

When we went into foster care this last time we talked to our children about our desire to adopt and they were all excited about the possibility.

Dennis Quaid

When I was in my mid-20s, I traveled a lot around the world, and the question I had for everyone I talked to was, 'What is your conception of God?' I found that everybody basically felt the same: God is within and without. He's in everything.

Elgin Bayless

When I talked with the state, they said they had most of those records on microfiche. But they didn't have the books for these years and these counties. They couldn't believe that I had them.

M. J. Rose

When I was a kid, I read many of my mom's books. Sometimes, there were mysteries, but there were no delineations, and my mother never talked about book genres. Nor did we differentiate genres in school.

Michael Feldman

When I was a kid, I hated being talked to as a kid. I don't know if all kids feel that way, but I seem to remember awful things in the crib, something like people doing baby talk in the crib and sticking their big, fat faces in there and scaring me. So I always talk to kids as if they were a person.

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.

Ozzie Guillen

When we were really struggling, you didn't see guys get two hits in a game. Any time someone got one hit, one walk -- nobody could put it together. Tonight when we were hitting the ball, one guy got three hits, one had two RBIs, one had two hits, all of a sudden you don't need nine guys to get a hit -- just two or three to get a hit at the right time.

Arnold Schwarzenegger

Tomorrow, we begin anew, ... I feel the same tonight as that night two years ago ... You know with all my heart, I want to do the right thing for the people of California.

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.

Lin Laursen

We're going to take a couple of days off, then we'll get to work getting ready for Kansas. There's still some work to do, and there's still plenty of room to get better. The way we played tonight wasn't good enough to get it done, but we won and we're going. That's all that mattered.

Jeff Tedford

We're going to play in conference games that are going to be close, and those type of things will come back and haunt you. Special teams had a letdown tonight and we didn't play to our potential.

Joshua Staley

We're going to go back and look at tape and try to find the mistakes that we made tonight and fix them. We're going to continue to work and get ready for the next round.

Jim Graham

What this comes down to for me is this is a health issue. The evidence is clear beyond any question.... Whatever we're going to do has to be mandated. I'm prepared tonight to say I will support the smoke-free legislation.

Chauncey Billups

When we come to him late, he always delivers. Tonight he hit some huge shots. It's huge for me and everybody on this team to know that when it comes down to these situations, it doesn't have to be me.

Dan Stephens

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.

Eric Thurston

When we were there at the beginning of the year, they handed it to us pretty good. We have to make sure we come out, play well and play smart. We have to be very strong in our own end. Defensive zone coverage is going to be key.

Dean Fabrizio

We're going to play a lot of man-to-man coverage. We're also going to play some zone as well. We just want to give him multiple looks.

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.

Bob Benson

When we get down inside the red zone we have to come away with points, ... There was a little confusion down there. We have some young guys playing on offense ,and the execution is something we need to get better at.

Ken Whisenhunt

What has happened at that position is you have bigger guys who can run a little bit, and certainly when you have a bigger target it makes it a lot easier to find them. People are playing zones and giving you the middle of the field in certain situations.

Lee Clark

We got up on them and killed the clock pretty good. They sat back in their zone and gave us the three any time we wanted it, so why not wait until late into the shot clock to take it. We took good shots, but sometimes the long ball won't go in.

Jennifer Shoaf

With the lineup we had out there, we really didn't feel like we had a choice. Brittany (Powell) and Erica aren't our two quickest players, so we had to play a zone just to keep (Ledford) contained.

Scott Hartnell

With no red line there should be a lot of goals. You can read the play where it is going up the wall. If you leave the zone early and a guy can make a good pass to you then you can have a breakaway if you beat the defenseman. There could be two or three breakaways for each team every game, especially if a defenseman falls down. It will be interesting.

Phil Garner

We're just not getting guys on base, and we're certainly not driving them in when we do. Everybody's frustrated. We've gone two weeks now without really much of an offensive threat. The real problem is that we're not getting the bats in the zone very good right now.
