Jim Goodwin

We have to get experience for our younger kids. Of the younger players, Amanda Walker got some good minutes in.

Dana Bruton

We were trying a bunch of different combinations of kids, so we were clunky - shots wouldn't fall, it was real physical, and there was lots of slapping and reaching.

Beau Bridges

I appeared several times on Atlantis while I was doing Stargate. And they've mentioned to me before that they'd like me do some, but right now I have nothing specific to report. I know Amanda Tapping is a regular now on the show. But I have no plans to do that as we speak. But I don't know.

Harry Ingalls

Over the course of the past 12 months the operations division of the district has studied utility costs at all sites. Because those costs were comparatively much higher at Old Union Elementary, Eubanks Intermediate and Dawson Middle, we enlisted the assistance of the engineering firm of Estes-McClure to develop possible solutions to this problem.

I was 18 when I did 'The Amanda Show,' and I was 19 when I did 'MadTV,' and I was in way over my head.

I don't think I've learned more faster in my life than when I worked on 'MadTV.'

James Harrington

The older generation did without things to hang on to the land, but their children don't have as high a regard for the history of the property. They want to buy boats and cars. A lot have gotten the idea of moving north to Dawson County.

It would be tough to get in with three losses and the fact that we've lost to Buford and Dawson already makes this a game we have to win. But it's the same for Wesleyan since they have two losses. Last week was the game we really needed to win. It was at home and we thought we had done enough to win it. So now we have to find a way to win on the road, which is tough to do in this region.

Torii Hunter

To black athletes, he was an icon. Everybody looked up to him. It's Dave Winfield, Andre Dawson and Kirby Puckett for black athletes (to look up to). It's tough to swallow.

We've always known there was a reason to keep all these original masters. We've never erased a single tape from any show we've ever done.

What's intriguing is that part of the new masculinity, or M-ness, is man's recognition that he needs a woman. This realization comes, ironically, during the Era of Female Independence, a time when man can be replaced by boy toys, female lovers, abstinence, and even vibrators, ...

And that's changing everything about the rules of the game.

We bought a small house in Boston and we got it set up and had everything perfectly arranged until we realized we really only had one seat in the house that had sufficient light for reading and every night there was a battle of who could race to this chair faster with a reading book and I was always losing being the smallest. So we really started a quest to look for an ultimate reading light.

Gretchen Rubin

As goofy as it sounds, I try to sing in the morning. It's hard both to sing and to maintain a grouchy mood, and it sets a happy tone for everyone - particularly in my case, because I'm tone deaf, and my audience finds my singing a source of great hilarity.

Austin Peck

I'm just a geeky, goofy person.

Ellen Potter

I pretty much always knew I wanted to be a writer. I was writing goofy stories when I was 7 or 8. That was what I call 'wishful-thinking writing.' I grew up in the city and always wanted a horse, but there was no way I was getting a horse. So I wrote all these stories about kids who had horses. It's still fun entering these other worlds.

Edy Ganem

I like guys who have a plan or a dream. A good sense of humor is also a must. I can be weird with my humor and say things that are random. You need to understand that I'm really goofy and go with it.

Caroll Spinney

When he first started - Jim Henson, who created Bid Bird and Oscar - he said Big Bird was just a big, goofy guy. And it was - a script came along and I said, 'I think Big Bird would be much more useful to the show if he were a child learning all the things we were teaching in the show.' And so he didn't know the alphabet, even, for instance.

Johnathan Frakes

When I was just acting on the show, I learned my lines, went to sleep, then woke up and went to work. Now it's sort of become an obsession. I like the success. I'm thrilled with the way things have gone-but my life was simpler 10 years ago.

Tyler Oakley

When it came to 'Binge,' it wasn't my intention to get on a little soapbox and have a teaching moment. It was more, 'Here are things that have happened to me; here's what I've learned from it. If you'd like to learn from it too, great; if you just like the entertainment aspect, that's fine too.'

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.

Grant Woods

When I was a boy, we all learned the story of George Washington and the cherry tree and accepted it as gospel truth.

Mason Locke Weems.

Mark Twain

When I was a boy of fourteen, my father was so ignorant I could hardly stand to have the old man around. But when I got to be twenty-one, I was astonished by how much he'd learned in seven years.

Dave Horne

Tom took great pride in the fact he didn't miss a game. Like a lot of young broadcasters of the '60s and '70s, he learned that it was a 365-day a year job. You didn't take a day off just because you were ill. But, of all of us, he had the ironman streak.

James Loney

When we were released I was sure I could jump right back into ordinary life and that's what I wanted the most, but I'm afraid no such luck. When I can get through an ordinary day without shaking legs and a pounding heart, I think that will be a sign that I can start to tell my story.

Colin Farrell

When we were kind of forced (by real life sniper murders in the Washington area that were too close to the film's plot) to pull the picture in October (from its Nov. 15 date), he wasn't nearly as big a star as he is today after 'Daredevil' and 'The Recruit.' He's become this hot guy.

Autumn Reeser

When I was little, I was a voracious reader, and that really led me to acting as well. I loved being transported into someone else's life, and that's what reading provided me. I also really love to entertain people.

Rachel Tucker

When I was in the running for the role of Elphaba, I knew it was important to research and study as much background information as I could, so I got my head stuck into 'Wicked: The Life and Times of the Wicked Witch of the West' by Gregory Maguire, and I believe I lost many days, weeks, and months reading it - I was captivated!

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.

Hideo Kojima

When I was a child, there really weren't very many video games, but I do have memories of 'Pong.' Maybe it was 'Pong.' It was a home system in Japan, so maybe it wasn't the real 'Pong.' It was just sort of a Japanese game that was similar to 'Pong.'

Wayne Coyne

We remixed them in 5.1, which doesn't sound like much, but let me tell you it's really a crazy, complicated thing to take these things that you did almost 15 years ago and revisit 'em in this format that only became available a couple years ago. A lot of bands can't do that because they don't have their own recordings. But we've always recorded ourselves, so it's a matter of me just going to the back room and grabbing the tapes and sort of putting them back on the reel. It's a weird treat.

Jerry Stanley

We respond to all sorts of calls: fire, rescue, assist, medical. I have a love for it.

We're sort of waiting by the phone to hear what they decide.

Paul Kantner

We're sort of too old to die young now, ... so you have to sort of carry (it) off with what you've got. And you're surprising yourself still. I think that's part of the process is the surprises.

We're sort of the soundtrack to these wonderful, wonderful images, ... The subject is the universe, but we interpret that loosely.

J. M. G. Le Clezio

When I was a child, I grew up speaking French, I mean, in a French public school. So my first contact with literature was in French, and that's the reason why I write in French.

Curtis Stinson

When we have that meeting things will be said and guys will speak their mind. That's how you come together as a team, when guys start speaking their mind. We're going to try and get that chemistry together.

Louis MacNeice

The poet is primarily a spokesman, making statements or incantations on behalf of himself or others - usually for both, for it is difficult to speak for oneself without speaking for others or to speak for others without speaking for oneself.

Anthony Zinni

There are certainly generals out there who don't like me speaking out.

John Connor

There are certain housing codes, building codes that the landlord is required by law to adhere to, but generally speaking the landlord should be expected to maintain the apartment in such a manner that it is fit to be lived in. Tenants are entitled to heat, running water, freedom from insects, rodents, mildew and mold, a roof that doesn't leak and windows that don't leak.

Lucinda Williams

Where they're just speaking in tongues, like they're on a drug or something... Would I really do that if that's what it would take?

Neil deGrasse Tyson

If you think of feelings you have when you are awed by something - for example, knowing that elements in your body trace to exploded stars - I call that a spiritual reaction, speaking of awe and majesty, where words fail you.

Nikki Grimes

In 'Out of the Dark,' I'm talking about my own life. I'm not talking as a character or speaking as a character. I was not as free as when I write fiction.

Erick Young

We believe this process of forming stars in a cluster was exactly the same thing that happened with our very own sun 4 1/2 billion years ago. It tells us a lot about the history of our own solar system.

Penny Junor

What makes life most difficult is the media intrusion, ... I think the public has gotten more and more greedy for the intimate details of their lives. These people are exposed to scrutiny 24 hours a day. We feel we have a right to know. We feel it's in the public interest. Even pop stars get more privacy. We just want to know every last detail. They are living in a goldfish bowl. And it never goes away.

Rob Johnson

What's so special about Danica Patrick is that she's a racer, not a novelty or pr gimmick, ... She was under tremendous pressure the entire month of May in Indianapolis and she came through with flying colors. She's paid her dues and now is getting the attention she deserves. Her growing popularity with race fans everywhere is a great boost for the league and we look forward to seeing her in August with Indy 500 winner Dan Wheldon and the rest of the stars of the Indy 500.

John Mather

We removed everything we knew--all the stars and galaxies both near and far. We were left with a picture of a part of the sky with no stars or galaxies, but it still had this infrared glow with giant blobs that we think could be the glow from the very first stars.

John Mather

We removed everything we knew---all the stars and galaxies both near and far. We were left with a picture of part of the sky with no stars or galaxies, but it still had this negative glow with giant blobs that we think could be the glow from the very first stars.

Tom White

We're not asking for the sun, the stars and the moon, we're asking for an inflationary increase, ... Our preference would be to settle this legislatively, if we can. But ultimately we have to be willing to take this to the people.

Todd Hays

Tomorrow will be my last two bobsled runs. I'm not getting any younger, and I don't think I'll be able to get it done in Vancouver when I'm 40. I have a medal but none of those guys do. I really, really wanted to get it done for those guys. They deserve a medal.

David Phillips

What we're saying is from Vancouver to Thunder Bay, Ont., that western part of Canada is looking like it'll be warmer than normal, so it's a continuation of what the fall has been like.

Robert Williamson

When we come across the bridge there was a van parked in the left lane.

D. James

What a devil of a bore it must be to be the superior person! - those mental anaemics who never read about murders, divorces, or whatever the special squeamishness may be to which they pin their vanity - as grotesque as going to the play and boasting

Gary Cherone

We brought out the old catalog and the majority of the Van Halen fans did appreciate it, but in the end, they wanted their Dave.

Laryl Morrison

We bought all the furnishings and accessories for the bungalow before we actually closed on it. We shopped at all the home stores -- Home Goods, Tuesday Morning, Art Van -- as well as flea markets, estate sales and the Salvation Army.

John Brennan

With the introduction of Vanguard Financial Planning Services, we are building on our 10 years of experience in providing investment advice and responding to our clients' desire for a simple, low-cost financial plan.

Brian Ross

We regard it here as reliable. It always has an edge, but it's backed up with facts, and this is another example. I asked O'Connor today why he went to Vanity Fair , and he said he wanted somebody that was credible with a good reputation and would maybe push it a little bit. He said he found that in Vanity Fair .

Josh Donlan

We're not advocating backing up a van of cheetahs and letting them go near Tucson.

David Snowden

We've always worked well within DoD guidelines and of course will continue to do so. We support the directive and all regulations that would protect military members from unscrupulous business practices.

David Mandelbrot

We've always worked directly with the owners of content to make that content available. In our experience, that has not slowed us down too much, and it has helped us to build strong relationships that have helped us in other parts of our business.

Anthony Dragona

We've always worked cooperatively with the department, and we're only asking for cost of living increases.

James Lipton

When it began I wrote this passionate letter to people I knew, studio members, of course, and other people with whom we have worked over the years and I said come and teach our students.

Geno Zamora

Tom said people in our country should not live like this. We filed law suits in Dona Ana County and it worked for two reasons. The developers knew they would be held accountable and there was some serious reform of the New Mexico Subdivision Act.

Richard Costigan

We're somewhat disappointed. We've been working with the Legislature all year on a great policy bill. ... We really worked up until the 11th hour.

Natalie Taylor

We're getting to know one another. We've really improved from last week to this week. We worked as a team and communicated a lot more.
