Beer Quotes
Many parents would be upset if their kids used drugs but many are accepting if their kid has been drinking. They consider drinking a beer as a right of passage in high school. I know of students using ecstasy all night and then they drink a beer when they get home and mom or dad smells the beer and thinks it's fine.

Behavior Quotes
So let's say you realize that you are never going to be a 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. person. You're not cut out for that sort of typical work environment. The benefit might be that if you embrace that and say I need to be self-employed or I need to be doing more project-oriented work. Identify the benefits -- I'd be more productive. I'd be happier. The people around me would be happier because my mood would be better. When you identify the benefits of accepting the behavior or habit, you actually give leverage to it and give yourself a better chance of sticking with it.

Conversation Quotes
Much of what passes for news in Washington is very hurried leaks from officials in power, whether in a corridor conversation or a thirty second phone call. And the media is far too credulous of accepting the word of Washington officialdom when it comes to self-serving leaks or publishing self-serving information.

Brings Quotes
I am completely focused on accepting the things I can not change, and I can not change the weather and player injuries. But when we have the luxury and privilege of having a combined men?s and women?s tournament for the first time, and we have a Connecticut native who is on his way back up after some struggles, who brings a group of fans who give this stadium an almost-Davis Cup feel, I feel lucky. I feel grateful.

Children Quotes
But there have been a lot of myths about how special schools are very special, with more one-to-one and so on, with not a lot of evidence that that is the case. What there is evidence of is that if children with special needs mix with others, it helps to make people in society more accepting of difference.

Good Quotes
He's (Gray) such a tough kid, and he did a nice job on Harrison tonight. He still got his buckets, but he worked for every one of them, and I'm accepting two threes that he hit because it was my fault, because I thought it would be a really good thing to play zone, and he showed me it probably wasn't a good thing.

Almost Quotes
I always talk to the kids about team first and don't pay a lot of attention to your individual statistics or records or whatnot. Being up here and accepting something like this, I almost feel a little guilt because there are so many people behind it. I know my name will go down in the book, but I think Coach Haley's name needs to go right there with mine. And to all the players that have played for us, all their parents, all the administration, the fans... I'm just very thankful to all of you.

Ball Quotes
He was the first person I met in pro ball because we both wore a size 14 shoe. He had interesting comments on exactly how far to stand away from the plate. He introduced me to the importance of being prepared for everything that you do. I took that in, on calling games and accepting responsibilities as a catcher.
