Jason O'Mara

When I was on 'Terra Nova', I had an Australian iPhone and a U.S. iPhone, different time zones, just a couple differences in the machines, but I was able to keep the international aspect of things in order.

Dave Gorman

What this Australian guy meant when he said I was a Googlewhack,

Shane Warne

When we go to South Africa it is going to be pretty hostile there. They are going to rip into us and nail us. They have to expect Australian crowds to nail them but the racist stuff is not on. I am disappointed that has happened, if it has, and hopefully it stops.

Robert Cray

Yes, I sing songs about relationships on the edge, relationships of all kinds, but remember I did not write them all, ... They are not all based on my experiences. Years ago, I wrote with Dennis Walker and Bruce Bromberg, who were 10 years older and divorced two or three times. They had great senses of humor, which is where lines like 'a boatload of lawyers just sank' came from. It is their stories on Strong Persuader, my breakthrough album from 1986. Sneaking out the window, 'Porch Light,' they are not my songs or lines. So, my life is not as miserable as some of the music makes it out to be. My wife Sue and I have been married for 15 years. She's an actor, but Sue gets the credit she deserves on some of my songs.

Dave Marsh

One thing I learned about Bruce Springsteen is: If there's a problem, you address it,

Bill Walton

I grew up in San Diego in a non-athletic environment. My parents were not interested in sports. Their loves were art, literature and music. I gravitated towards sports because of my older brother Bruce and the first coach I ever had, who, like John Wooden, made it fun and really emphasized the joy of playing the team game.

Tom Odell

One month I'll be completely obsessed with Bob Dylan and the next Arcade Fire. I like early Elton John and David Bowie, Bob Dylan and Bruce Springsteen. I listen to a lot of American bands. But I like listening to new bands, too.

Scott Snyder

When I get the possibility of using a character like Bruce Wayne or Dick Grayson, I try and think about what's most exciting or interesting about them as a person, so I try and think what they are at their core, or what piece of their psychology do I gravitate toward that I respect, and I'm excited by it when I read books about them.

James Sutherland

For example, we've invested almost $15 million in our deli meats plant in Buffalo, N.Y., over the past two years.

Bob Lekites

Amy Baker

We remain optimistic that the strength of Florida's economy is going to carry us through any worst-case scenario.

John Hughs

We're getting to the year-end period and stocks are starting to drift. You're seeing that today, ... There's still a lot of uncertainty about the economy and about the change in Bush's economic team. We're also coming off a period where the Dow rose for 8 weeks and so you're seeing a little pullback. You saw it last week and I think it's continuing.

Ned Riley

We're going to see more of the same for the next few weeks, unless something comes in that indicates a pick-up in activity in the economy or on the corporate level,

Kate Warne

What we're seeing today is a combination of lower oil prices and concern about the strength of the economy in the second quarter.

Jason Schenker

Jamie Dixon

We've always thought he was a very good player and always believed in him. He just happened to play on some very good teams behind some very good players. Last year, he developed and got better. He played in a lot of big games against a lot of good people.

Richard Foreman

We've always respected Israel's right to defend itself, including going after armed groups and armed men in some of these areas. But we've always said they need to do that in a manner which has the utmost care to avoid harm to civilians, particularly when they're conducting operations in heavily populated areas. And we've said that often results in tragedies and numerous deaths. And that appears to be what's happened again.

Drew Goddard

We've always idealized youth and then destroyed youth. That has happened since the beginning of time, and I'm fascinated by why we do that.

Chuck Gillingham

When we went to interview her, she almost canceled. But she had been with her daughter that morning and was thinking if, God forbid, something happened to her daughter that someone would come forward and do the right thing.

Chris Carpenter

When I was out there in the sixth, my hands and my fingers started cramping up, ... The same thing happened when I went up to hit.

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.'

Kurt Andersen

When I talk to college students about Spy, it's like I'm describing something that happened in the 19th century. We were very lucky. We started Spy at a time when our generation had arrived at full adulthood and wanted to connect to its anti-establishment youth.

Thomas Frank

A president aiming for 'Great' or 'Near Great' status must do more. He must give lots of interviews, make records accessible, and heap the flattery on academia - each of which Mr. Bush has signally failed to do.

Theodore Bikel

Lord Chesterfield

History is only a confused heap of facts

Ambrose Gwinett Bierce

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.

Dan Jacobs

When we went to Minnesota, I had 15 people I've never met before in my life come up to me and ask, 'So, this is Missy, eh?'

Allan Ray

When I was on that floor and couldn't see anything, that was one of the first things I was thinking about, I'd probably be blind. I thought I was. I couldn't see anything. Everything was burning. Pretty much, my life just flashed in front of me.

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.

Philippe Petit

When I was learning by myself, despite my parents, despite my teachers, despite society, when I was fighting for building my life as a young wire walker at age 16, I didn't have feelings, I had certainties.

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.

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.

Kent Beck

There are musicians who want to make a living making music. There are listeners who want to listen to music. Complicating this relationship is a whole bunch of history: some of the music I want to listen to was made a while ago in a different economy. Some of the models of making a living making music are no longer valid but persist.

Kent Beck

Received wisdom is that if you spend time up front getting the design right, you avoid costs later. But the longer you spend getting the design right, the more your upfront costs are, and the longer it takes for the software to start earning.

Pat Roberts

Kweisi Mfume

We believe we're a vital part of that public, ... and we will no longer be silent.

Jonathan Mayers

We've always tried to reflect people's diverse music collections. We don't want to dismiss our core in any way, but . . . as great as Widespread Panic has been to us and has been a really big part of what we've done, we can't have Widespread Panic every single year.

Gene Johnson

We've always tried to have a good mix of stuff on our albums -- something that's fun, something that's very radio friendly, something that's going to touch someone's heart, maybe even something that's pop influenced. More than ever, on the 'Completely' album, we wanted to show more than one musical side of Diamond Rio.

Aleksey Igudesman

We've always dreamt of a TV series and working in film. When we first sat down to seriously write 'A Little Nightmare Music,' to write something for TV was our original inspiration. But all the stuff we were writing down is not going to work on stage. We had to rewrite it so it would work on the stage.

John Deacon

We've always decided ourselves what we wanted to put out as our singles and that sort of things.

Jon King

When we were younger we were all trying to score points. But as musicians all we wanted to do was to make something that sounded great, and we became obsessive about it.

John Tesh

When I was playing piano, it was like, 'I'm going to write a song using all the white keys.' My music director, who knew my jazz background, suggested I try big-band music, so we spent a year experimenting with it in concert, and the audience reaction was really good.

Mike Curb

When I was lieutenant governor, Jerry Brown was governor and you might recall that he spent just about a year of my term out of the state.

Michael Bolton

When I was invited to sing with Pavarotti, I had about two weeks to learn Italian.

Pauley Perrette

When I was in N.Y. bartending, I was in a billion music videos. I was in Madonna, George Michael, Salt-n-Pepa - it goes on and on.

Steve Matlock

We've assembled a team of dedicated, energetic people whose experience and enthusiasm for this industry is unparalleled. With these talented leaders in place, La-Z-Boy is in for an exciting ride.

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.

Bob Collins

We've asked all our section pros to put their program up on the Web site and I'm really, really excited the way they're starting to get involved. We're trying to create some awareness in the area and to get people to play. People always want to know, where do I go for a class? Where do I go if my kids want to learn? You can find it in there.

Paul Stamm

We've approached the other trusts and have gotten a verbal commitment, but they would like to be able to be the monies that put us over the top in the project. This has a great chance of being a reality and we really need $10 and $25 donations from people in the community.

Joe Hudak

We've always wanted to try to figure out ways to improve our attendance. There's no doubt it's a great advantage if you can have a lot of people in the stands cheering for you and cheering against your opponents.

Randy Honebrink

We've always tried to reduce the number of people getting bit by sharks through education and awareness. We try to get our safety tips out through our Web site and in publications.

Charlie Sands

We've always tried to have the thing that people want.

Tim Coghlin

We've always thought they were a very skilled team but they're even more skilled than people know. They skate really well, they swarm the puck, the protect they puck well. They all have exceptional puck skills, stick skills, and they compete.

Terry Lickona

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. We've just about run out of space to store these tapes, but they've turned out be gems. We're proud of these old shows and we think they deserve to be seen by new generations of fans and people that have been fans all along.

Geoffrey Dicks

Unless or until the revival in the housing market translates into higher consumer demand, it is the weakness of the latter that is of greater relevance to the inflation outlook -- and hence the policy decision.

Enrique Pena Nieto

U.S. politicians are increasingly recognizing the relevance of the Hispanic vote in U.S. politics.

Karl Inderfurth

There is no one better in the world than the secretary general of the U.N. to discuss the importance and relevance of the U.N. in today's world.

Hans Blix

would seem to have only limited practical relevance in the current situation.

Eddie Campbell

I'd be interested to read Gull's paper on it, and I wish Alan would put it in somewhere. It gives him a relevance to our times, which he doesn't otherwise have. Gull, I mean, not Alan.

Tim Nelson

One of the most important things about this project is that it is a partnership. Our major goal as an institution is to maintain our relevance to the region, state and country.

Larry Wachtel

We're completing the first quarter now, but we're still getting data from the fourth quarter. This is old news. I fail to see what relevance this will have for the market today.

Bill Whalen

He needs to talk about the relevance of what he's doing with the political system.

Charles Ruff

Whatever relevance such evidence may have to prove other elements of plaintiff's case, it does not have anything to do with the issues presented by the president's and Ferguson's motions for summary judgment. I.e., whether plaintiff herself was the victim of alleged quid pro quo or a hostile work environment, sexual harassment, whether the president and Ferguson conspired to deprive her of her civil rights, or whether she suffered emotional distress so severe in nature that no reasonable person could be expected to endure it.

Sue Johnson

We?re just trying to scrap out a win every time out. In this league there?s Hartford and then there?s the rest.

Bobby Jones

We're going to come ready to play for 40 minutes and leave it all out there. A lot of people don't expect us to win. We're a scrappy bunch. We don't back down from everyone.

Mike Godfrey

We're getting real good pitching and we're starting to be able to execute and scrap a few runs out. We're finding ways to score runs, sometimes, when we really need them.

Ron Crawford

We're not as big as we were. We'll have to be a more scrappy football team than we were last year. We're really not built big enough to stop what they do.

Cher

Don't take your toys inside just because it's raining.

Lisa Cholodenko

I have enjoyed writing my own stuff, and it's been a privilege to be able to scrap some money together to be able to make films from my own scripts.

Alexander Chase

When a machine begins to run without human aid, it is time to scrap it - whether it be a factory or a government.

Tony Pierce

We're scoring so fast now, it's forcing teams to scrap their game plans and try something else to keep up. Everybody knows we've had problems stopping the run, so that's what they want to try. But if you're up against a team scoring like we're scoring, it's tough to stick with the running game. They're forcing teams to change what they want to do. That's never bad.

Eric Maskin

In an industry with highly sequential innovation, it may be better for society to scrap patents altogether than try to tighten them.

Plaxico Burress

When I was in Pittsbugh, I was basically worried about how many times the ball would be thrown my way,

Rick Burkholder

We're going to rehab him like he's going to play again. I'm sure he wants to get back and play. He's a guy who's been thrown two major surgeries. He rehabbed hard, and I think he can do it again.

David Grewe

We're going to get guys thrown out, we're going to get guys picked off, but that's all part of it.

Dusty Baker

What thing with Tony? If there had been a thing, somebody would have thrown some blows or something. There was no thing. We had a discussion.

Kevin Rollins

When we got out there (Tuesday), the weather had turned kinda bad. It was cold and windy and not at all like the weather we'd practiced so well in during the past few days. We're just glad to see the kids still perform and not get thrown off by anything, then go out and get the win.

Tom Lamb

Weymouth forced us to throw the ball and Nick did a great job. He also had two drops that would've been touchdowns. In two games he's thrown 30 passes and only one wasn't a good one.

Kevin Rogers

What he has done -- I mean, we haven't thrown the football 200 times -- but what he has done with the football is really unbelievable for a guy who hadn't played in more than a year. He's a cool customer, probably the coolest guy we've got out there.

Jim Haslett

We got two guys beat right away, and Aaron probably should have thrown it (on the safety),

Peter Bernard

With the high need and growing demand, lots of money and time is being thrown at a problem, but everyone is chasing after the very few graduates that exist.

Jeff Lemire

When I was offered 'Hawkeye,' it was very intimidating at first because that book is so loved and so successful, commercially and critically. The worst thing you could do is try to imitate what they did because, in the end, you're just going to get a watered-down version of what they did.

Joe Johnston

We're sort of putting a slightly different spin on Steve Rogers. He's a guy that wants to serve his country, but he's not a flag-waver. We're reinterpreting, sort of, what the comic book version of Steve Rogers was.

Kent Beck

Organizations want small changes in functionality on a more regular basis. An organization like Flickr deploys a new version of its software every half hour. This is a cycle that feeds on itself.

Chris Capossela

When we asked people what would you like us to do in the next version of Office, nine times out of 10 people have named something that is already in the product. In Office 12, we are making a much more innovative UI to help you get better results faster.

Dave Barry

UNIVAC: a device, which contained 20,000 vacuum tubes, occupied 1,500 square feet and weighed 40 tons; there was also a laptop version weighing 27 tons.

Brett Myroff

With the introduction of the new Intel-based products it's important for companies to use the same version of Sophos Anti-Virus regardless of the type of Macs being used. Through its latest software for Mac OS X, Sophos continues to offer the highest level of virus protection to all Mac users.

Scott Long

Until about four years ago, the Chinese medical profession was still following a version of the diagnostic manual that still listed homosexuality as an illness. That has also changed, but that may not have filtered down into how individual doctors or just ordinary people perceive it. Things have certainly gotten better, though, but this latest raid shows that the government can still step back, as well as forward.

Mark Ruffalo

What makes Hulk afraid? It's himself. It's a version of himself that's weak. It's a version of himself that's vulnerable. It's a child inside of him.

William Giles

We're still comfortable with the performance and expect Montecito to offer a 2X performance improvement over earlier versions of Itanium.

Steve Matlock

We've assembled a team of dedicated, energetic people whose experience and enthusiasm for this industry is unparalleled. With these talented leaders in place, La-Z-Boy is in for an exciting ride.

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.

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.

Bob Young

We've recruited a very professional team and it's simply a sign of maturity of our organization that we want the professionals whose careers are at stake in making this thing work properly,

Maya Angelou

When we cast our bread upon the waters, we can presume that someone downstream whose face we will never know will benefit from our action, as we who are downstream from another will profit from that grantor's gift

Joe Farren

What about the young parents whose baby sitter is trying to call them, or the brain surgeon who needs notification of emergency surgery. These calls need to get through.

Ben Bernanke

We benefit from foreign direct investment. Many Americans are employed by foreign companies with plants in the United States, for example in the automobile industry. So, trade is a two way street. I think, it is important to protect Americans who lose their jobs, or whose jobs come under pressure from international trade. But, I think, we need to be careful not to embrace economic isolationism.

Keith Benjamin

We believe we should be less concerned with picking the bottom of the market and begin to accumulate those stocks whose fundamentals appear to be improving.

Ron Meyer

Universal had its most profitable year ever in 2005 due in no small part to Marc, whose impact on this company has been the foundation for its unique culture and its far-ranging achievements, His combination of strengths is unique in that he has been able to attract exceptional creative talent in a specialty film environment and at the same time is revered in the global sales and distribution community for his taste and acumen.
