Ken Quotations

Any history buffs, people who like religion, suspense and mystery mixed with history, or anyone who likes 'The Da Vinci Code,' needs to read Ken Follett.

Joe Morgan was the one guy that absolutely put our team really over the top. ... Then we had George Foster come in; Ken Griffey Sr. was as good a two-place hitter as there has ever been in the game, and Cesar Geronimo won four Gold Glove awards. I mean, how could you ask for a better team?

Yes, threadbare seem his songs, to lettered ken - they were worn threadbare next the hearts of men.

I'm excited to join my brother-in-law Ken Thomson every Tuesday night on SiriusXM to recap all of the awesome NFL action, and to find out what in the Wylde world of sports is going on.

And then 'Wanderlust,' Ken Marino and David Wain wrote the funniest - they're amazing. That was one of my most favorite creative experiences; we're all up at that commune, a small group of people. Everyone was funnier than the next. It was an amazing ensemble feeling. Everyone gave and took in the best way.

The worst story I ever wrote was after the conviction of Jeff Skilling and Ken Lay. My co-author and I wrote a piece for 'Fortune' saying everything's going to be different now.

We have over an hour of footage with Ken Marino. Same with Kevin Smith. Because you never know, when you let people who are so talented at improv go, what you're going to get. You don't want to strangle them with your own words, because probably what they're going to say is way better.

When Jack Swagger copies my Ankle Lock and Randy Orton does my Angle Slam, it's disrespectful. I didn't come up with the Ankle Lock; Ken Shamrock came up with the Ankle Lock, but I waited until he retired to do the Ankle Lock.

It depends who the director is you know, I mean Ken Loach for instance. I've done up to 32 takes with him.

I never give anyone advice: it can backfire horribly. In the 1950s, Eric Morecambe told Ken Dodd to get his teeth fixed. But those teeth turned out to be one of Dodd's big selling points.

I named all my sons George Edward Foreman. And I tell people, 'If you're going to get hit as many times as I've been hit by Mohammad Ali, Joe Frazier, Ken Norton, Evander Holyfield - you're not going to remember many names.'

Interior Secretary Ken Salazar turned out to be all hat and no cattle with his sorry oversight of the Minerals Management Service.

Ken Lay, the disgraced former chairman of Enron, found a way to escape his legal problems: He died after being convicted of fraud and conspiracy charges.

the powerful lesson from Enron for me is the power of self delusion and how people rationalise and deceive themselves. And I think when Ken Lay and Jeff Skilling say they are innocent now, as they do with their trial approaching in early 2006, they mean it on a certain level. One smart financial observer said to me that he's never met the CEO of a fraudulent company who didn't come to believe in what he'd created.

We are pleased to have Ken on board. He has had experience at both the high school and collegiate levels. He's been extremely successful as a coach, winning state championships in high school and coaching in the NCAA tournament. He is from the desert area (Phoenix) and will fit in well in El Paso.

Watching pieces of Ken Burns' 'Baseball' instead of sitting through the whole thing sounds pretty good to me.

We're going to take it slow and see how Ken goes. There's still more testing. We would never want to do anything that would harm him as we go forward.

What a comeback,'' A's manager Ken Macha said.

We both knew Ken because he works on guitars.

Throughout his tenure at Hartmann, Ken Hinman has shown a propensity and a passion for design and innovation as well as a complete understanding of the Hartmann consumer. Product development is the lifeblood of any company and it only makes sense to place such a talented person in such a key role. I look forward to seeing what Ken will do in his new position and am very confident that he will lead the effort to bring Hartmann into the future.

We have seen and heard Ken's pleas. Thank you for letting Ken make his appeal. All of the family are very grateful to you for his message. They wish you to say to Ken that they love him dearly and are waiting for him to come home soon,

There are points in time when the president looks into the camera and makes a pretty compelling acquitting of himself about how he feels about what Ken Starr has done to him, to his family, to his friends, and how he thought the Paula Jones case was politically motivated, and I think he's very sincere. You can tell this has hurt the guy.

We have heard what you say and want to continue to listen to you. You have proved to the world that you are committed and determined. Be merciful as we know you can be, ... Release Ken back to his wife and family. We ask you, as a family, to be all merciful.

Like any other celebrity, Ken needed to keep up with the times.

Mike Leigh and Ken Loach are the people I look up to. They are quality film-makers making interesting, controversial, ground-breaking movies with very little eye on the marketplace.

One of the strongest parts of our case has to do with the fact that Ken Lay never sold one share of Enron stock that he was not compelled to sell.

Obviously, you don't want it to happen under these kinds of circumstances. That's not the way you want to get more playing time. It's unfortunate, and I'm not really even thinking about that right now. My thoughts and prayers are with Ken right now.

Of course Ken Starr was the leader of the impeachment movement against Bill Clinton and we are not particularly thrilled about him coming. However, we want to hear what he has to say.

My assumption from talking with Ken in the interview process is that the investigation will go forward. I think he feels confident that there is a good team of people in place who are working on it and he has several more months to be part of the investigation before he reports for duty out here.

Neither Dennis nor Ken ever dreamed it would still be in use 30 years later.

One thing prosecutors can expect to get from Causey is testimony that he met with Ken Lay during that period and made him aware of how deep the plight was at Enron. By the time of Lay's return, Enron was almost like the Titanic after it hit the iceberg.

I was sorry that Ken went off in a huff. I was just a fan in those days, with no aspirations other than for the team to win two or three in a row, and maybe knock off Liverpool or Arsenal in a cup game.

I didn't come to Nashville to move Ken Griffey Jr.. I came here to make our team better.

I don't know whether Ken Lay is going to testify. What I do know is that his attorneys have told us that we should prepare for a hearing in which he will testify,

Ideally, we would prefer to remain at this location if we can work out a mutually beneficial plan with the developer of this area. We do not want to put any undo pressure on the developer, Ken Colin, who is a very smart and giving business man.

I come from a family of painters. My dad Ken is still a working artist. His dad used to paint as a hobby, and my great grandfather carved ships' figureheads. I discovered quite early on I had talent, but like all abilities it needed work and dedication.

I am going to vote for Ken Clarke. For years the wider electorate has told us that Ken Clarke should be the leader of our party and prime minister of our country,

Carolina offered him just a phenomenal financial package, and he was gone. Ken had developed his skills. We drafted him, we liked him, he had gotten better and better and better, and now he's playing at a certain level. That was a good signing by Carolina.

Bush wants Davis because Davis is sort of one of those blind automatons. That's not who Ken Lucas is, that's not what the district wants.

Buck has a broad list of unique and memorable accomplishments. But we're talking about the best of the best. And why are we just now talking about Buck O'Neil and the Hall of Fame? There was no talk of Buck in the Hall of Fame in the '60s, '70s, '80s or early '90s. If Ken Burns hadn't featured him in his documentary about the history of baseball, hardly anybody outside of Kansas City would know who he is.

I have a public defender (Mr. Ken Barker), who is doing everything that he possibly can do. But he has problems understanding me, much as I have problems understanding the legal terms.

I give him credit for this evening, being willing, taking responsibility and to say the things that he did, but I've got to tell you ... I was really offended when he started to attack Ken Starr at the end. Look, Ken Starr is not to blame for these actions. He's to blame.

I feel sorry for being compared to him - he's Ken Griffey!

From that point on, I spent four or five days a week talking to Ken Herock trying to somehow massage it and get this so first of all we don't lose him and secondly this can be an eventuality. They wanted to get rid of him and I just didn't want that thing to get cold.

He feels this is a very important race that will get a lot of attention from the DCCC. He assured us that they know Ken and know it's winnable.

We've been through this once before, when we lost a guy by the name of (former All-American) Ken Harvey,

When he woke up this morning, ... Ken Starr had a choice: to serve the public or himself. He chose the latter.

Here's the final word from a giant of American jurisprudence on the methods, motives and ethics of Ken Starr.

Goldberg called around to friends she has, including one in Chicago who works at the same firm Ken Starr does. This person recommended Goldberg to call Jackie Bennett at the OIC. Goldberg advised that the OIC knew who this person is, and that this person is very nervous at this time.

His offer doesn't change the facts: Ken Blackwell still says one thing and does another.

We may have created the biggest monster that the Western Hockey League has ever experienced. Ken Hodge now is going to be tuned loose to do what he really, really loves doing.

He conveyed that to (co-owner) Ken Wagner. Ken stopped in Vancouver and met with Shaun and his father on Sunday morning, hoping to convince him on the merits of being a Nanaimo Clipper.

Ken was recognized early in his career as a man of integrity, strength and imagination. I hated it when he told me he was taking early retirement. I tried hard to talk him out of it.

Ken was just a tremendous father, and we would take Ben fishing out at Camp Clay. He would come up to the Y and play basketball, and he's quite a golfer also.

Ken was a very good player. He's a very good friend. We kind of grew up in different eras, but we were exposed to the same things.

Ken truly has all the qualities of a great Aggie and a great Ram. Ken was an extremely active student during his time at CSU. Whether it was his highly successful sports career, various extracurricular activities, leadership in student government or his involvement in Silver Spruce, Ken took full advantage of his time here.

Ken told us there was a ghost there with us, a little boy named Christopher.

Ken Starr's prosecutors demanded to know what I had told reporters and what reporters had told me about Ken Starr's prosecutors. If they think they have intimidated me they have failed. And if any journalist here or elsewhere wants to talk to me, I'll be glad to talk to you.

Ken played fantastic and didn't miss more than five or six balls all the way through.

Ken Oliver thought it was an opportunity to bring some continuity to the entire road.

I would say Ken Lay has been grilled by his own lawyers to avoid opening the door.

Ken Myers shares that mission through Mars Hill Audio from a reformed Protestant perspective. He has done some wonderful interviews with a wide range of people - including many non-Christians who offer thoughtful perspectives.

Ken Lucas was screaming to the other side, 'Quarterback is in the game. Watch the throw, watch the trick play. When we snapped the ball, he was maybe not fully ready to cover because of that.

Ken Lucas should say if Nancy Pelosi would be his choice for Speaker of the House.

Ken Lay is what I would call a fix-it man who thinks he can pick up the phone and take care of it because of who he is, a man of power. It's as though he thinks he can call anyone, any time. They're not going to like that kind of attitude.

Ken Lay acted as any reasonable CEO would have acted in the same circumstances. He made correct, proper and reasonable decisions in what he said.

Ken is very inspirational. Even though he hasn't been playing, he's been there with us at every home game. He's been on the sidelines cheering. He has a good heart, and he's always fired up.

Ken is the closest thing I had to a brother.

Ken Holland brings a wealth of experience in preparing a team and he has had great success in selecting championship teams.

Ken Hodge is a major reason why we want this franchise.

Ken Hatfield is a tremendous speaker. People will really enjoy him because of his enthusiasm and encouragement to all people. He will deliver a very inspirational message.

Ken has revamped his life mind, body and soul. Everyone knows how difficult it is to change, especially when you've lived your life a certain way for more than four decades.

Ken has revamped his life - mind, body and soul. Everyone knows how difficult it is to change, especially when you've lived your life a certain way for more than four decades.

Ken has options and we're respectful of that. I wouldn't expect a long process. We'll come to a resolution soon.

Ken has gone through this transformation to show Barbie that he is a changed man. He's more than arm candy. He's spent time exploring the world and himself, so his look reflects that time spent on his own.

Ken has done a phenomenal job of distributing the ball. Every week, it's a different guy stepping up.

Ken has been throwing some great passes and he knows the system well,

Ken had some time to think it all over and (decided) he needed a new look. A makeover was inevitable.

Ken Griffey Jr. was extraordinary. He went completely out of his way to do everything he could.

Ken doesn't think he's got anything to say sorry for and if that's really his feeling, then I think that he should stick to his guns.

Ken Dobson has proven his driving expertise in a number of different series and he certainly knows the fast way around Mazda Raceway Laguna Seca better than most drivers. In fact, Ken literally dominated some of the Spec Miata events held at our home track over the past few years. So, it's great to have him back and in a Mazda6 at the Speed World Challenge Touring Car finale. The Tindol Motorsports team has proven they are serious contenders this season and their strong effort has helped keep Mazda in contention for the championship. With Tindol bringing a second Mazda6 to Mazda Raceway Laguna Seca for Ken, our arsenal is obviously stronger now.

Ken did make optimistic statements. What do you expect the CEO to do in a situation like this? He was not lying. He was telling the truth as he saw it. He believed ... and he was fighting a battle.

Ken did a great job for us. We've always said that. He was a good enough manager for us to want him back before, and he's still a good enough manager to come back.

Ken Clarke has the popular appeal, he has the experience, he's an obvious person who can handle Gordon Brown who will be Prime Minister by the time of the next election.

Ken brings a strong and varied background in business, accounting, academics and administration to his new role,

Ken Blackwell's mean-spirited, negative campaign is eating away at his support.

Ken Blackwell refuses to debate, once again demonstrating his reliance on negative attacks and empty rhetoric.

Ken Blackwell is either a huge hypocrite or very incompetent.

Ken and Steve never connected today. With the opening of free agency, Ken spent most of his time on the phone. He hopes to speak with Steve by Wednesday.

It appears the main complaint is they were not able to intimidate Ken Blackwell and now they're going to try again.

I think it's going to be a circus for them. I know Ken Hitchcock was sitting in his office for the last year and a half trying to come up with a system to defend against the no red line (two-line pass). So look for him to come up with something. I know in Minnesota, Jacques is trying to do the same thing. It's interesting to see what's going to work. We're going to have to work in a lot of systems to try to counteract no red line.

It hurt personally because I had such admiration for Ken and Enron. But that was the right thing to do at the time.

I was an outfielder, and I was a huge Ken Griffey Jr. fan. In Little League, the team I played for was the Mariners, and I wore No. 24.

I will never forget April 13, 1986. It was my first Masters, and just as it ended, (CBS analyst) Ken Venturi drove me back to the CBS compound and said, 'Jimmy, you may be lucky enough to broadcast 50 Masters, but you'll never live to see a greater one than the one you saw today.' I think he was right.

Kyle's starting to get up there where Ken (Dorsey) was. Ken didn't care what people thought of him; he'd get in your face, grab you by the jersey and such. Kyle's getting to where he doesn't take anything from receivers, or from any of us, yet he's very professional in doing it.

Papa Darth. Well, I don't know if Ken is technologically inclined. I suspect not. I don't know if science fiction would be his interest.

Our focus is on Republican voters. We'll continue to have a discussion among Republican primary voters (about) why Ken Blackwell is the best candidate.

My personal favorite is a tiny wide receiver-cornerback named Ken Beasley. He is going to be a stud for them.

It doesn't mean that's where you should be, you know? ... When Carlos understands what he is, when he learns to make adjustments better, I see him being a third or fourth hitter because he can steal bases, he can hit and he's going to get bigger and stronger, sort of like Ken Griffey Jr.

I think Ken is capable of landing punches on this government in a way I don't see anyone else being able to do.
