Nick Quotations | Page 2

Nick and Vicky were raised in a restaurant family and they have a very familial Greek way of doing things. Nicholas was the one in charge at first, but bounced ideas off other people, particularly Vicky and I and my mother-in-law.

Nick and John are very good with the kids. They teach them well. There not just getting in there and swinging the swords around. Fencing instills a lot of discipline in them.

Nick Abraham and I had known each other from Ryerson University.

Nick Zinner has been one of my favorite guitar players for a long time.

Nick would have done a great job at running back. It's nearly impossible to take a skill athlete, especially a senior, and put him on the offensive line. He had the body and the frame most conducive for the job.

Nick worked on his game a lot in a tennis club. He'll definitely help us this season. Any time you have a No. 1 player like that, it really enhances your team. It gives us a weapon at No. 1 and it makes us a lot stronger down the lineup.

Nick worked hard in the off-season to recover from an injury. He really led by example and made himself into a really good football player.

I was pleased with Matt Salmon's effort -- he stepped in at 1 singles for Nick Sale, who was injured, and had a nice match, did his best. Drew Simon had a very good effort against Lafayette Jeff's strongest point, a senior. And 1 doubles were steady against a very good team.

But there's a lot of encouragement to be taken, especially the lineout contesting, which was excellent. Nick Kennedy was superb.

But, by the second half it was almost pathetic. They couldn't block us at all. The 'Three Amigos' - Nick Ball, Josh Knecht and Brian Ferguson - just took over while they wore down.

I hate playing bad. And I know Nick hates playing bad.

I feel like it's going to be a two-hour Nick at Nite episode, considering we're on every night right now, it just seems like a really good time.

I don't think people can be mad at Nick or hold anything against him, because he almost makes fun of himself, ... He knows how other people feel about him. So he disarms them. He will not allow them to get into his head because he already knows their position on him.

He has done a good job stepping in for us as Nick makes his recovery.

He made the rest of us look very average. Nothing demoralizes a Little League kid more than a monster home run like Nick used to hit.

He came through big time, ... He got here just in the nick of time.

We told them our conditioning was going to be the difference in the second half. We felt like (Brock) was tired at halftime. Nick (Snider) was wearing on him.

We are extremely fortunate to have Nick join our staff. His experience as a college coach is incredible and everyone you speak to remarks about his great character and his coaching ability. We're getting a great person and a great coach.

Hawks have been in fantastic nick but sod's law says they'll lose one day.

Her rarely striking out was not genetics. I think it was the psychology I tried to implant in her when she was young. We would go to the batting cage and I would put it on 110 pitches. I told her as long as you at least foul the ball off there is no way you are going to strike out and that all you have to do is just nick the ball.

He's as good as they come. I don't think you even saw the best of Nick Hartigan. I think he had some trouble today getting things going. He's a guy that can run it outside and beat you with speed, and he can run it inside and beat you with power.

We looked smooth and crisp, passes were denied and we got Nick the ball.

We looked at the rise of broadband on Internet and said, 'Let's try to be the first to create a network that opens a new window of distribution for us rather than having to go hat in hand to a USA or a Nick at Night or a TBS,'

We mainly wanted to find a way to give Nick the information that he could use about our newly-educated work force to help market and attract businesses to the Galesburg area.

I actually had the good fortune to work with Nick Hoult on 'Mad Max' in Africa, so we became really fast friends.

Jordan and Jim White (16-10 at second doubles in 2005) are going to be playing first doubles for us. Our singles players are definitely going to be strengthened with Nick playing, but our doubles teams definitely have an opportunity to develop.

John Hawkes is amazing. I really want to meet that man; he's so good. Him and Ben Foster, and I'm a big fan of Nick Stahl - those are my three guys.

I talked to Nick and Rayzor (Sunday) and they want to be here. They both want to play here. I think it's just a matter of time.

I thought we wrestled well today, but there is still a lot of wrestling to be done. Nick and Andy (Simmons) dominated their weight classes, and we had some thrilling matches at other weights as well.

I thought, boy, this fellow is really taking his time, ... He phoned me up one day and said, 'Hello, it's Nick Park. Remember me?' I said, 'Yes, of course I do.'

I think when the games are tight or if there's half a chance he's always going to nick one for you. But I don't think that was the main factor last Saturday because even if he was playing in the first half he wouldn't be able to do anything with that.

I thought the first five minutes of the second half were key. Nick shot the ball very well. But I also thought the third five minutes of the first half were key as well. Ashley (Thomas) really got things going for us. It makes things easier when you have two big guys running the floor and a guy to get the ball to them.

I think that Nick has done enough in his opportunities this year in preseason and in training camp to earn some playing time. Whether that continues or doesn't continue, I don't know. That will be determined by the way he plays, the way other people play, and again, that just builds a little bit of our versatility.

I thought our guys wrestled really well today. Alex and Nick wrestled very well. Alfred was a little disappointed he didn't win, but he wrestled well. He can wrestle better yet.

I think we've actually escaped a lot of it, because I've seen what happened to Brad and Jen and Nick and Jessica.

I think Ben saw Nick coming out, and there was no communication. Nick thought he was going to pick it up. I think we got a little tentative and we didn't even have a play.

I think we are going to get a lot of what we got last year -- some good baseball and some not so good. I think they still need a slugger at first base. Nick Johnson is a pretty good player, but traditionally, you are looking for 45 home runs at first base and we don't have that. We have to make it up at other places. I'm pretty happy with their acquisition. They really strengthen their bench and that was a big thing.

I was worried about how our line would handle Thief River Falls' huge line, but they played well. Nick anchors things on both sides of the ball for us. We'll run behind him when we have to have yards.

I watch a lot of news shows and I love Nick at Night, and the Comedy Channel.

I was a little worried about this game after the first inning. After we tied it up and took the lead, I felt Nick was in control and we were in a good spot.

I was able to get him (Davis) off balance. I think he might of thought I was going to raise up and I was able to get a good pull-up. I knew I didn't have enough time probably to get all the way to the basket because I kind of squared him up but it came right in the nick of time.

Jeff Holm did a great job. We really don't know what we're going to get from him (sometimes), but he came in (this game) and just did a fantastic job. With the meat of their order up and getting Nick Herrera, one of the best hitters in the area, to pop out was great. That gave us momentum.

Jimmy and Nick (Johnson) have a chance to have pretty good seasons.

Kris Canto is to our defense what Nick Clemens is to the offense.

I scrambled to the top of the precipice where Nick was waiting. ""That was fun,"" I said. ""You bet it was,"" said Nick. ""Let's climb higher."" ""No,"" I said. ""I think we should be heading back now."" ""We have time,"" Nick insisted. I said we didn't, and Nick said we did. We argued back and forth like that for about 20 minutes, then finally decided to head back. I didn't say it was an interesting story.

Our pitchers feel a lot more confident out there knowing that Nick is behind them.

Really, our whole back end (Cory Carlson, Andrew Rhodes, Devin Foil) has played really well. Two players helped us early - Nick Ray and Cain Webber.

Patrick Head and Nick Fry came to us with an alternative proposal which was much more in line with what we wanted.

Our offensive line just moves people. Nick is our little ball of energy.

My personality is Nick Price, but my game is not Nick Price. I hit it long, and I hit good irons, but my short game is putrid. It's putrid. But it's getting better.

Matt Leinart's L.A. duplex looks more like a Chuck E. Cheese safe house than a millionaire jock's crash pad. There's the requisite leather couch and flat-screen television, but the rest of the ground floor is bare except for a pile of Nick Jr. DVDs, a high chair, and a SpongeBob SquarePants director's chair.

I think if Nick had something cracking, he would have said. I suspect he's taking a rest.

It did surprise me to hear that. I really thought and still think he could be developed into a very good quarterback. When I went to see Nick at the end of the year, I told him the same thing.

It did surprise me to hear that, ... I really thought and still think he could be developed into a very good quarterback. When I went to see Nick at the end of the year, I told him the same thing.

I thought Nick wrestled great. That's always nice ? when you can beat someone who beat you last year.

I thought I got in the end zone. But it gave Nick Sexton his first touchdown, so it worked out.

I think they're doing a great job all the way across the board. I think there are a lot of positives in the way the team has played. Nick has done a great job after that Cleveland game, whatever he's done in bringing them together. They're playing well.

I'm so glad that it was Nick doing it for Sweden. I'm not surprised because he does it every night in Detroit, but he never gets enough credit back in Sweden for the way he plays.

Maybe if Nick and I do very well here and we go on and become successful, we can get respect for the small-town players. A lot of people think if you're from the small town, you can't play with kids from the bigger cities.

Manny has a superb management team in Shelly Finkel, Nick Khan and Keith Davidson, as well as a Hall-of-Fame caliber trainer in Freddie Roach,

The amendment states and reflects America's true needs by saying to millions of senior citizens who do not receive adequate coverage that we are there for you, ... That's millions of senior citizens, and we help them by taking just a small nick out of the president's tax cuts -- about $158 billion.

That was too little too late. Nick also, in the first five minutes, let a freshman point guard beat him to the basket for two baskets. I'm happy Nick shot in some 3-pointers but I can't find a whole lot good about our performance tonight.

That was a great play. I had Nick Goings for a touchdown. When I threw it I thought touchdown all the way.

That was Nick going and getting it, but it could have been anyone in a black jersey doing that because we're a hungry team. We've been in these games before and it doesn't come down to skill. It comes down to heart and determination, and we had a half more ounce than Villa.

I was playing well but didn't really score as well as I could have. That was frustrating and that's why I decided to go home to relax and just get my head back into the game and have a really good end of the year. It's a good field here. Obviously Lee, Nick and Craig are here and the good Asian players are here as well.

Meloy's balladry brings to mind vaudeville, ragtime, Tin Pan Alley, 'Sweeney Todd,' the Victorian and Edwardian eras, Kurt Weill and Nick Cave, 1960s psychedelic rock pop and roaring pub sing-alongs.

You always want to be on the field. But Nick and Jamal will do a good job.

We really, really focused on A.J. (Smith). Nick just ate us up.

We played the European champions today, and we should have won that game. But there's a lot of encouragement to be taken, especially the lineout contesting, which was excellent. Nick Kennedy was superb.

We?ll wait and see and hope for the best. We?re going to have to do some shuffling. He was our best offensive lineman along with Nick (Carlin).

We've got one of those karaoke machines, ... and the last night we were all singing on it. We finally got Nick loosened up a little bit where he'd sing. I think finally toward the end he relaxed a little bit.

We've had many people suspended for actions we deemed harmful to Hollywood Foreign Press - we're trying to protect our image. Certainly none ended up in suicide. If Nick did take his life, which seems apparent, I don't think you can say there's a causal relationship between the two.

We couldn't be happier with that news. Nick and Jake are two of the best kids that have come through this program.

We were hopeless in the first-half, nowhere near our best and insipid, but better in the second-half and it was more like a Cup-tie and I thought we might just nick a goal to win it.

Today was a great day for our kids. The course is the toughest we'll see all year. A lot of them stepped up, ran their best. We had a few injuries that caused Ryder Pierce, Nick Belt not to finish, but we ran really well.

We need him to play like that (aggressively). But nobody's gonna get 33 every night. I don't want Nick to feel he's got to get 30 for us every night to be successful.

We got three guys back and it's nice to see Nick (Flannery) scoring again. It was a good game to go into tournament with even though it was a loss.

We had some great fun, especially during 2002, and Michael's death is a huge shock for everyone who knew him. My co-driver, Nick Grist, has also lost a very close friend.

We didn't have much of a margin for error with Nick out. Then our back-up point guard has two fouls a couple of minutes into the game. Against a team like Ontario that puts you behind the 8-ball.

We'll start training him here. We'll get him three quarters fit and send him to Nick at Palm Meadows.

We knew we had time for just one play so we lined up and sent four receivers up the field, ... Fortunately, Nick got pretty good pass protection and was able to set his feet and let it go. The pass wasn't great and the receiver had to adjust and go up and get it. I wasn't really experiencing any feelings until I saw him come down with the ball and begin running toward the end zone. Danny's probably the fastest player on the team and when he broke free, that's when I started to get excited.

While most kids had Pam Anderson posters on their walls, Nick had Pam Anderson and airplanes. It was a split loyalty.

We have growth pressure all over the city. I'm hoping that Nick will bring the pragmatism he has in general to kind of get things done.

When I was younger, I always was like, 'I want to be a serious actor.' I wasn't interested in doing a Disney show or a Nick show. But here I am, and it's great.

When Nick visited the BHSU campus, he impressed our coaches with his speed and quickness. He is very young and will need to develop strength and add a few pounds in the next couple years.

When Nick is comfortable he is very effective. When he is uncomfortable he's unpredictable. At this point, whatever trigger is there, Nick is playing comfortable and thus is very effective.

When I set out to really write the charter for Nick Jr., I wanted to make TV that has as passionate and child-centric a mission as PBS did.

We didn't expect to be using this much. Nick got into the routine of putting his shirt onto it every morning while he had breakfast.

We had a chance to win it at the end and 1-0 would have been a major result for us. As it is, it is going to be very difficult for us. If we can nick a goal I would fancy our chances but we will have to weather the storm for 15 to 20 minutes, as they did tonight.

We basically got everything done in the nick of time. It was very intense.

With anybody other than Brooks at short and we don't get the out at first. It was perfect, from Nick on through. It was a huge play for us.

We had some timely hits today and Nick Phillips did a good job on the mound.

But then they turn on Nickelodeon and see all those enticing junk-food ads. Adding insult to injury, we enter the grocery store and see our beloved Nick characters plastered on all those junky snacks and cereals.

We were in just too dark of a place and the spirit wasn't there anymore. We just wanted to go back home, but before we could make any sense of it, Nick grabbed the car and went back to London.

We knew going into the season that Andy and Nick would be two of our strongest runners,

We knew both of them. It was funny, because depending on who you talked to, some people thought Nick was better and others thought Caleb was better. Anytime you can get two kids who can shoot and pass the way they do, you find spots for both of them.

We just ran out of time. One of the reasons for the outstanding comeback was the rebounding of Nick (Gonzalez) who snagged eight in the final quarter.

We moved Nick from middle blocker to outside hitter and a light bulb went on.

The publisher has told - you know, if these editors, Andres Martinez and Nick Goldberg, were the least bit honest about this, they would tell you the publisher has told them he wants the editorial page to be conservative.

We feel right up to now, Nick has the edge in the passing game.
