Moss Quotations

I have a fear of things growing on things. I don't know where it came from. But I go hiking a lot, and sometimes I can't handle moss growing on trees or tumors on trees or mushrooms.

There's something about the Pacific Northwest, the scale of it, and the fact that not so long ago people came here and died getting here, and then died the first winter they were here. There's this breathtaking beauty, just a little bit of moss on the tree, just this little thread of danger, and the sinister. And I really like that.

I'm part wood nymph. I require mountains and warm, dense patches of moss to thrive.

If I had been around when Rubens was painting, I would have been revered as a fabulous model. Kate Moss? Well, she would have been the paintbrush.

On the king's gate the moss grew gray; The king came not. They call'd him dead; And made his eldest son, one day, Slave in his father's stead.

I think of Kate Moss whenever I think of someone who did the bridesmaid thing right. They were all in different dresses, and I love neutrals. But it's so hard to pull that together. You almost need a stylist for it.

I have a confession to make. In the beginning, I did not understand the Kate Moss phenomenon.

I actually really love the Kate Moss Rimmel lipsticks. Sometimes I get afraid of different colours. I want to try a bright pink, but I don't want to look tacky!

Kate Moss is small and not necessarily model dimensions but she has that special something.

Dick Moss, my agent. Dick became my agent in 1979 when I signed my contract with the Houston Astros.

When I see Kate Moss out and about, I think she looks more beautiful than when her hairdresser and make-up artist try and make her look like something else. And I remember when Madonna first asked Versace to book me to shoot a campaign with her, she came to see me wearing hardly any make-up, and she looked incredible.

I was always telling girls who said that they wanted to be the 'next' Kate Moss or the 'next' Gisele that it wasn't possible, because the 'next' girl wasn't going to look like anybody else; she would be somebody unique. If you look at all the great models... they all have an individual look.

Walking the runway with Alexander McQueen, I really had to dig deep. You're with Kate Moss and Naomi Campbell. I was the first person out on the runway, but I thought, 'I have done the Olympics, I can do this.'

I'm really inspired by British style, like Kate Moss and Sienna Miller.

I tend to like to make my statements more in fashion than in beauty, because what I normally respond to is when someone looks really effortless and deconstructed, beauty-wise, and they're fashion is really grand. Someone like Kate Moss is a great example.

The first campaign that I recall was with Kate Moss and Marky Mark. Probably the most iconic jeans ad ever.

there is moss on the walls and the stain of thought and failure and waiting

Since the Braves rarely, if ever give up effective starters (see Bruce Chen , Damian Moss , Steve Avery , etc.) it's tough to believe that Marquis will bring much to the table in his post-Atlanta years.

Moss played great. He got a lot of key early offensive boards, got some big-time points and some key stops.

Moss makes everybody look bad. (Harrison) runs around out there like a third or fourth-year player. By all means he doesn't look old, that's for sure.

Moss is still Moss. Everybody knows what he is capable of because he?s done it for so long. He can still be a game-changer, so you have to give him the utmost respect.

Moss is spectacular, we all know that. But with me waiting over the top for him most of the afternoon, you could see the frustration in his eyes, in the way he ran his routes. That's not something that happens with T.O. Every route run is hard and crisp. Every possession has an intent to it.

Moss is Moss, and everyone in the league knows what he's capable of because he's done it for so long. No matter if he's injured or not, you've got to make sure you go out there and stay on top of yours, because he's capable of exploding at any time. He's a game-changer.

I grew up in the North of England at a time when Stirling Moss was a hero. Everyone wanted to be a racing driver.

I have consulted with (attorney) David Cornwell in the event there is any issue concerning Randy Moss and the NFL substance abuse policy. But as of this date, we have had no meeting with the medical director.

because, quite frankly, I don't know if Randy Moss is still on the field with me as a teammate at that time. He may be in the locker room when the game is on the line.

I always have my Laura Mercier foundation and concealer with me, and I love the Rimmel Kate Moss lipsticks. My favourite is shade 08, because it's just such a lovely natural colour with just a bit of pink to it.

Kate Moss voluntarily reported to the police today to assist their investigation, as she always said she would when she returned to this country.

Kate Moss is my friend...I think it's like everybody is being bad to her. It's not the first time it has happened in the world...it's really like a vendetta.

Kate Moss has had such a phenomenal career and I wouldn't even like to compare myself to her. It's amazing that people are going to put my name close to hers.

Kate Moss has got to suffer, throw herself to public opinion and plead for mercy, and then she can rebuild her career.

I think we've come a long way because five years ago the world was in denial, and now we get Kate Moss getting caught and she says, 'Mea culpa. I'm sorry.' We live in a world in which we forgive and we grow. I'm acknowledging her heroism because I think it's fantastic she stood up and said, 'Yes, I did it.'

Later on that evening, our daughter and son-in-law called back and said, 'We don't know what kind of pull you have, but we saw a helicopter come straight across the river to this house and shine lights inside the house,' ... While we were talking to them on the phone, a National Guard Humvee picked them up and took them to Moss Hill. They were very thankful to have a dry place, but there was no food, no water. It was just dry.

I saw Moss blaze down the seam, ... I wasn't able to take the right position. I should have read it faster and taken the proper angle. I take all the blame.

People may want to call it the Moss factor or whatever they want, but there is no doubt in my film study, the vertical stretch that Randy brought that offense is sorely missed right now. When I look at the tape from last year with Moss in that lineup, you've got safeties sitting back there 18, 19, 20 yards, sometimes not even on the screen (of the coaching tape).

I was fed up with the team. I didn't even want to watch them, the way they were playing and with the scandal and everything. It just wasn't fun. I thought once they got rid of (troubled wide receiver) Randy Moss they'd jell a little better. But it got worse.

It depends what you do with it those six times. If you do like Moss or T.O. does, you definitely have the right to say whatever you say because there are only a few guys who can change a game in the course of a few plays.

When it happens over and over, and it's no call, no call - then a call ... The touchdown by Randy Moss looked like a touchdown to me. The call on Langston Walker looked like a good block to me.

We had to readjust our (practice) schedule last week. We were in pads and shorts the day after the Moss Point game but didn't do any hitting.

We've had long layoffs earlier in the season. It didn't affect us then, and this won't either. I'm ready to play and bring a gold ball to Moss Point.

When I signed onto 'Superman,' editors Matt Idelson and Wil Moss gave me a rough outline that JMS had turned in for the remaining issues of the 'Grounded' arc, which amounted to a couple of sentences for each issue, spelling out in general terms where the issue would take place geographically, specific guest stars, things like that.

Fangio . . . I saw him when he was on the wane and he was still better than most. And Jim Clark and Stirling Moss were next best.

Both touchdowns came on the same play. I don't know what happened. I just saw Moss blazing down the seam.

T.O. is more of a dink-and-dunk type of guy. He can catch a 7-yard pass and make it into 87 yards, and Moss is just going to run the flat-out 87 yards.

We talked last week about (Randy) Moss being in a special category offensively for the Raiders. You've got to put Peppers in that same category defensively,

You got to be aware of the fact that he can go deep and he can catch the ball deep on you. You have to be aware and try not to let him catch the deep ball. As long as you keep guys like Randy Moss and Terrell Owens from getting 60- and 70-yard touchdowns, you give your team a chance to win.

You get so spoiled when you have a player that draws the kind of attention that Randy Moss (did), ... You look for, 'Are there guys to double team?' And right now in this offense, there isn't.

Breaking the record means I've accomplished something and won't be forgotten at Moss Point. I didn't think about record until mid-season when I had a shot at breaking it.

The story got in the paper, then it got on the web, then it went worldwide. Then our phones started ringing and people started asking about Moss so we had a meeting and said, 'Since these calls are coming, what is the value of Moss?' We said it was three No. 1s because we knew no one in his right mind would ever give up three No. 1s.

The team last year had a chance to beat Moss Point. Nobody outside of Picayune thought we could do this. Words can't describe what I'm feeling toward these guys.

Definitely, when Randy Moss is on the field, special attention has to be spent,

Companies want Kate Moss for the whiff of danger. If she overdoses then so much the better, she will be an icon. I'd have thought it would have made her even more of a commodity. With Burberry she could be in trouble: it's quite wholesome.

All of our championships are special, but this one is great. Since we lost to Moss Point last month, our backs were against the wall. They could have given up, but the kids responded.

According to the caller, the party later identified as Moss acted in a suspicious manner, growling, making animalistic types of noises, salivating and repeatedly walking in to her car.

It was the Battle of Raymond Road down in Moss Point. I hate it came down to both of us playing where one of us had to go home.

It's a little different trying to run the ball with eight guys in the box. The Vikings haven't had to face that because of the Randy Moss factor.

I told the kids before the game that coaching at Moss Point is one of the highlights of my career. It makes you better when you can play well and be fortunate enough to win the game.

Supermodel Kate Moss has left a U.S. clinic after undergoing a program of therapy,

It'll be another good opportunity to play Moss Point again. They're one of the teams to beat in the South.

It's great that we came out and established ourselves, because the big guys haven't been getting it done lately. To come out and set the tone early, it took pressure off of guys like Moss and Gabe and we got rolling.

It's guaranteed to turn your lawn silver and black, but every once in a blue moon you'll see moss on the grass.

Any time you have Randy Moss in the lineup you have a chance to go 50, 60, 70 yards in one play.

I'm going to go on record and say that Randy Moss has played his last game in Minnesota.

I'm sure they're going to double (cover) him. They utilized something very similar against Santana Moss against Washington. Exactly how they do it, they'll mix it up, man under, zone under. But the other option is you send pressure and then hopefully your pressure covers any receiver. It's nothing we haven't seen before.

In grammar school I read 'Act One' by Moss Hart, and being a playwright struck me as the most magical and romantic career anyone could have... But I never did write a play.

In Moss Point, there were people who had insurance and money to fix themselves up. I'm not there for them. I'm there to help the elderly and handicapped who did not have insurance or the means to repair their homes.

I never really thought it would happen. I wish he wasn't leaving. I really do. But it was out of my hands. Moss never was a negative, as far as football goes. He did his thing on the field. It was the off-the-field-stuff that was negative. But he never did anything crazy that would really hurt anybody. He would do little, small things.

Because the offense usually extends a little bit to try to take care of him, they like to bring the linebackers and blitz them up inside. As the line widens to give attention to Peppers, that opens up a lot of the inside pressures for them. We talked about last week (Oakland receiver Randy) Moss being kind of in a special category, offensively, for the Raiders. I think you have to put Peppers in that same, whatever category that is, defensively.

The early bird gathers no moss! The rolling stone catches the worm.

I'd have to take Moss, ... Defensive coordinators have to commit more people in coverage against Moss than any receiver I've ever seen.

I don't think there's any question it's put us on the map. A lot of coaches didn't have any idea where we were in the beginning. They know about South Panola and Tupelo and Starkville and Meridian and Moss Point, but it's been nice to hear our school get some recognition.

I feel compelled to speak out in defense of Kate Moss following recent days of speculation and, in many cases, ill-informed and inaccurate stories.

I feel I have to prove something to the hometown fans and for the state of West Virginia which doesn't have a lot of guys getting Division I (scholarships). Randy Moss and those guys paved the way.

I do not know what 'moss' stands for in the proverb , but if it stood for useful knowledge... I gathered more moss by rolling than I ever did at school.

A rolling stone can gather no moss.

The Moss of old is back!

The GOP of old has grown old and moss covered.

I like fat girls. A woman can never be too poor or too fat. I'd take a poor fat girl over a rich thin girl like Kate Moss.

The hormones don't change your voice, so you can look like Kate Moss but sound like James Earl Jones,

. . . You were aimed from birth: you will never be alone. Rain will come, a gutter filled, an Amazon, long aisles -- you never heard so deep a sound, moss on rock, and years. You turn your head -- that's what the silence meant: you're not alone. The whole wide world pours down.

A rolling stone gathers no moss and therefore will not be derided as a moss-back. Roll as much as possible.

I will stay in prison till the moss grows on my eye lids rather than disobey God.
