Amazing Quotes
I had an amazing childhood and always loved to sing and dance, but there were moments where I had ups and downs with my health that often tested me as it does many people.

Allowed Quotes
In some ways, we -- along with many of our peer institutions -- have allowed rankings to define us, not only to the outside world, but also to ourselves. It is folly to distil all that makes an individual school unique into a simple rank. There is no such thing as a number one school.

Earlier Quotes
In the 1920s and 30s, when Radio Shack was young, a much earlier generation of nerds swarmed into these tiny shops to talk excitedly about building radios and other transmission devices.

Born Quotes

Access Quotes
I don't know how I would define a playoff. I prefer something a little different that gives us greater access at a higher level than now. Whether it's a 16- or eight-team playoff, I don't have a feeling on what's the best model. There are hundreds out there that could potentially work.

Attempting Quotes
All Fisher Fellows must complete a three-month residency--it's the time when theory meets reality. To get them thinking about leadership techniques and the needs of schools at different levels of maturity, we place them in schools that are well-established, like our academies in Houston and New York, and they also spend time at schools that are just starting and still attempting to define their cultures. At the end of the residency, they are better equipped to make their vision a reality.

Asked Quotes
A journalist asked this to my father. He spent a day with me and interviewing my friends/colleagues and didn't understand how I could be the one that created 4chan and, as he put it, 'couldn't understand how to fit the square peg into a round hole.' The best way I have of describing it is, 'I didn't define it, and it doesn't define me.'

Collection Quotes
The Hall of Fame's collections are rich and diverse, given baseball's history and role in helping to shape and define American culture, ... Having the Jack Kerouac bobble-head in our collection is important, given he's an American icon who had a deep passion for the game, which he shared in his writing.

Allies Quotes
The film 'Documented,' a project of the nonprofit and nonpartisan Define American campaign, is about my families: the family I was blessed to be born into, and the family of friends, mentors and allies that I found when I moved to the United States at 12, a Filipino kid trying to make sense of my new home in America.

Analysis Quotes
The logistics solutions Siemens developed for Saks? DC worked well because we tailored them to their individual needs. Complex design tasks, like this project, require thorough preparation, so we started the support process right from the earliest stages - helping Saks to define their project objectives. We employed proven procedural models for proposed-system data analysis, and then prepared performance specifications to compare potential solutions, both in terms of investment and operational costs. For Saks, it made more logistics and financial sense to construct the building around the material handling solutions that we were arriving at through our analysis process.
