Paul Gray Quotations

When it became obvious that they were one of the teams that we could be playing (in the regional) we made sure to scout a couple of their games. Jared Wood is a solid player. He shoots it well and he gets to the basket. Keegan is real active and is real solid around the basket. And their guard (Freeman) does a nice job of running the team.

We're still learning how to play without Brad (Peterson). He's close to coming back, but we wanted to make sure he was ready for league play next week.

We want them to get as much water out of the lake as possible. We need as much cushion going into summer as we can get.

Paperbacks blink in and out of print like fireflies. They also, as older collectors have ruefully discovered, fade and fall apart even more rapidly than their owners.

I think if you took 3,000 photos here today, you would find it looks very much the same. The culture doesn't change. What makes this place what it is are the students and faculty. They're just as bright and eager now as they were 20 to 30 years ago.

It even looks exactly like a real book, with pages and print and dust jacket and everything. This disguise is extremely clever, considering the contents: the longest lounge act never performed in the history of the Catskills.

Maybe that will be an advantage for us in this game because they've never been in our gym before.

We have to re-evaluate it. It takes time, but they need to look at it again.

We've had eight new players on this team this year. I've been real happy with our leadership, especially from Brad Peterson (nine points on Saturday). He's sacrificed a lot of his personal statistics to make us a better team. A lot of our guys have done that.

We had opportunities to score some points off turnovers but then we would turn the ball over ourselves. We talked about that to the kids at halftime and now I kind of wish we didn't because we came out in the third quarter and turned the ball over again.

We got the tempo of the game up where we wanted it. And I thought we did a nice job on defense. We just didn't handle the ball well offensively.

The overriding negative influence on Asian export prices this year has been the strong growth in Indonesian exports, particularly as this has occurred at a time of limited buying interest in the spot market from the Japanese power utilities.

We've had a lot of people contribute. We're not dependent on one guy scoring 30 points for us. In some ways, it is hard to guard us because we're going to make all five of your guys play defense. We do have a lot of depth and we are a very unselfish team.

We'll have to wait until they run all the data, and then we'll see which one we like.

We got some good looks and hit open shots in the first quarter. ... We jumped to a pretty good lead. Playing on the road and in a hard gym, (South Tahoe) got off to a pretty sluggish start. That made (the game) an uphill fight for them.

Those who have spent time familiarizing themselves with the topography of Greeneland will have some idea of what must happen next.

That (16-5 run) really gave us some momentum. But we seem to be streaky like that this year.

The most important outcome of education is to help students become independent of formal education.

That's when everybody decided, 'We need to drain Florida,'

All of our legislators, they're doing what their job is, and it's not my place to tell them what they should or should not do. When they're ready for us to have a vote on it, they'll tell us.

They do a real good job of getting the ball to those guys in places where they can be real effective.

The water coming out of the lake is the worst water quality that it's ever been.

I'm not excited about giving up that property on a permanent basis.

He offers the never-never land of convenient cliches. a world where statesmen say, "We've not heard the end of this," where people turn "scarlet with anger," where the price of gold goes "sky-high" and where the unsuspecting outsider "little knew what fate had in store for him.

One must love a poet on its own terms.

The image of the reporter as a nicotine-stained Quixote, slugging back Scotch while skewering city hall with an expose ripped out of a typewriter on the crack of deadline, persists despite munificent evidence to the contrary.

People joked that Forster became more renowned with every book he did not write.

Muffled lives explode in understatements.

In the end, the Tribune lost touch with the world it was supposed to reach; it mattered passionately, but almost exclusively, to those who worked for it.

You can only stare at a clown mask so long. After a few minutes it's no big deal anymore. So people start paying attention to the music instead of what the clown is doing, or what he is wearing, or how cool his spikey hair is.

The nuclear industry is currently undergoing a rebirth. The uranium market will remain tight for at least the next three years.

Cats are kindly masters, just so long as you remember your place.

Cats were put into the world to disprove the dogma that all things were created to serve man.

You only get one chance to do this.

Alex is just a good shooter. If teams are going to give us those opportunities, our guys are going to take them. We're not bashful about shooting those shots.

All we ask of our guys is that they take good shots. The shots we took tonight were good shots, shots we like to take in the flow of our offense.
