Grounded Quotes
For me, my preference for comedy is grounding it in the psychology of the character, and not just kind of making faces. Even when it's a crazy character, grounded comedy resonates more with people because it doesn't look like you're watching someone do vaudeville. No offense to vaudeville.

Beyond Quotes
Kate brought a real grounding to the character, as well as a solid intelligence. Caroline is very compassionate, but also very straightforward and very strong, and I saw all that in Kate when I first met her and realized I was talking to someone who's wise beyond her 25 years. I also think that Kate's natural effervescence was a great counterbalance to what could easily in someone else's hands have become overly introspective.

And then he hit that one about a foot in front of him in 12, and then he got that on to about 8 feet and made the putt. So he makes his putt, and I say, 'Joe, great putt. Is that a 4?'

Attack Quotes
A weapon of mass destruction smuggled into our country in a cargo-container could be the next 9/11. The bad guys watched and learned how we reacted after the last attack by grounding all aviation.

No prizes for guessing who you'll be shouting for.

Bilingual Quotes
Because foreign children who came here as teenagers have already established a firm grounding in their mother tongues, they are likely to become bilingual speakers--human resources who will become more valuable for Japanese society. If the education system would only be a little more flexible, they would not have to go through the kind of hardships they now face.
