Blow Quotes
We humans do, when the cause is sufficient, spend our lives. We throw ourselves onto the grenade to save our buddies in the foxhole. We rise out of the trenches and charge the entreched enemy and die like maggots under a blowtorch. We strap bombs on our bodies and blow ourselves up in the midst of our enemies. We are, when the cause is sufficient, insane.

Bring Quotes
My game is not a pretty game. It's a game in the trenches and big people can't hide too much. I know what I do when I'm on the floor. I have no illusions about my job and what I bring to this team. I work hard and I try to get rebounds and protect my teammates, plain and simple. I can do that from any position. ... You can make it destroy you or you can let it light a fire under you.

Both Quotes

Band Quotes
I don't think we realized how far gone we were in people's eyes. We pretty much had to prove ourselves over again, from our fans to people in the music industry. It's been an uphill fight. Nobody handed anything to us on this record. It's been us just slugging it out in the trenches and playing shows and proving to people every day that this band is legit and we're not going away.

Advocate Quotes
John Hall and I worked shoulder-to-shoulder for nearly a decade in the trenches of politics and public service. No one was more devoted to his craft and to working families. He was passionate about his profession, and particularly in helping young people. In his service on the Contractors State License Board, he was a staunch advocate for professional standards for his trade. We will miss him dearly.

Anybody Quotes
I will fight you, and I will be wiser doing it. I just don't want to take punches for no reason, but at the same time I need to box from the outside. I can box and make him miss. But if I want to get in the trenches and fight, I can do that also. I do not fear anybody anymore as far as taking their shot.

Aspire Quotes
As a way to build relationships, trust and credibility with customers, if you talk about problems and how to solve them as opposed to products and what they can do, people are a lot more attentive to that.
