Herb Quotations

I can tell you one of the most surprising ingredients I've ever found. Perhaps five years ago on a beach I saw this herb that looked exactly like chives. I put it in my mouth and started chewing and, surprise, it tasted exactly like coriander.

When you chop the herb you're bruising it -- releasing those precious oils onto the cutting board. I want you to slice it so the oil will release in your mouth when you bite into it.

Nobody's going to replace Herb Brooks and what he did in 1980 for USA Hockey. But I think that Peter realizes this is his opportunity as a coach. He's had two opportunities as a player. He's grateful for the opportunity and he certainly respects what goes along with representing your country and just what the whole international competition is about.

I don't know of any other beverage or herb or anything like that that would help people perk up in the morning.

I'd already be on the plane to Florida. I don't think he (recruiting coordinator Herb Hand) knew that we had a press conference at 8 a.m. if we won, so I had to reschedule. But, that's a good thing.

He seemed pretty energetic. He let Herb do the coaching, but he still had a lot of input out there.

He was able to make his foul shots and that hurt us down the line. I thought the foul calls were lopsided. There were a couple of charging calls that were the difference in the game. Our guys who guarded Herb got into foul trouble. They got him the ball and it was mission accomplished.

President Bush has nominated Roberts to become the most powerful judge on the nation's highest court. The public has a right to see documents that will give us more information about his judicial philosophy. If the White House continues to stall, then it begs the question, 'What is the president hiding, and why?' ... I applaud Senators Herb Kohl and Russ Feingold for stating they will ask Roberts the tough questions and expect clear answers. We are urging Wisconsinites who value freedom and privacy to call their senators and urge them to oppose Roberts' nomination.

Our league is a great league. Herb just made it tougher.

People need to remember that Herb is just 16 years old. I don't know if people always consider that. There is a lot of pressure on him, and I think he handles it as well as could be expected for someone his age.

Some people can say Herb had a lot of garbage points today. I say it was good position. It was Herb outworking their big guys.

We put our heads together and thought about what Sylvia could do that the town didn't have, so we opened this little herb shop on Main Street,

We are pleased that Herb has joined the Board of Adept. As we develop the Asian market, his relationships will help us to operate more efficiently and his people development skills will help us build a global organization.

To me, Herb has been like the heart and soul of the board. He is a one-of-a-kind.

Every July, 400 of the most powerful media and tech industry chieftains meet at investment banker Herb Allen's conference in Sun Valley, Idaho, for what are usually convivial discussions of megatrends and megamergers. But this year, Microsoft Chairman Bill Gates III laid into Sony Chief Executive Howard Stringer, according to two sources, including one who witnessed the exchange in a private room,

Sometimes coach is calling stuff and I don't understand some of the things he's calling. I ask Phil Ford or Herb Williams just to give me some insight, so I think coming off the bench has really been helping me.

They put me down as an herb taster, ... I work in it, but I ain't tasting it.

This potent herb do I dig out, it draws toward me the eve, causes (love's) tears. It brings back him who has gone to a distance, rejoices him that approaches me.

The biggest thing we stressed with (coach) Herb Brooks was that we needed to get off to a good start and to play with intensity right from the beginning of the tournament. That's the way we have to treat the Olympics. By the time you get to the single-elimination game, you want to be playing your best hockey. We are going to have to make the young guys understand that ... getting our intensity level high right from the beginning.

In a way, I do all this for him. I take so much pride when people say I'm Herb Fisher's son. There was a time in my life when I wanted to be my own man, but so much of me is who he was.

If you're a person who would like to have a little herb garden, it's perfect.

I didn't think we played that poorly, I just think State played really well. They shot the ball tremendously that day and they were playing at a high level. I told Herb after the game that he had a heck of a team. I think they are the second best team in the league right now. It will take a yeoman's effort for us to beat them.

I am partial to plants that I can use. The herb garden affords a big palette to play with.

Herb is a great coach. He's so smart and intelligent. Our league is a great league. It's getting tougher and tougher. Herb just made it tougher.

Herb inherited a program in 1996 that was in need of consistent success, and he brought that back to N.C. State basketball ... .

Herb hasn't been appreciated the way he should be appreciated. He deserves more than the way he's been treated. He has poured everything he has into the job. I don't think they could find a better coach for their program.

Herb exceeded everyone's expectations in terms of what he gave us. He was on the job every day, and I can't say enough about him. He's a wonderful guy to work with, and he certainly helped everyone in a hockey sense who's associated with us.

Herb Brooks is quite simply one of the greatest hockey coaches who ever lived. He is the architect of the most famous achievement in American hockey history, and we are extremely pleased to learn that he will be inducted into the U.S. Olympic Hall of Fame.

Herb and I have worked together for nearly two decades, and I've appreciated him as a creative and strategic thinker and, most importantly, as a friend. He has guided Nickelodeon Networks to an unrivaled leadership position and has broadened its businesses to engage viewers beyond the TV screen in licensing, movies, recreation and much more. He is a true innovator, and he is leaving a great legacy for our company and the industry.

Herb and I are delighted to add Dave to our coaching staff. He has a wide variety of coaching experience. Also, with the type of young talent we have at Utica, we felt it was necessary to have someone of Robbie's caliber preparing our product.

The herb that can't be got is the one that heals
