The chemistry is very good and they are really nice kids.

David Oliver

We were a long shot a month ago and now I don't think anybody can look at us and say we don't deserve to be here. The team we have in there is incredible. It's probably the best group of guys I've ever played with as far as personality-wise, the way everyone gets along, the goals we all have. Everyone bought into what we want to do and there are no egos and that's really odd in pro sports.

Phil Jackson

We remind our players that this is something that was a special night in a heated situation but it's not going to be a steady diet for us. The onus on Kobe is to stay inside the team offense. The onus on the players is to pick it up a little bit better.

Dan Veru

We bought some shares recently in a dot.com company that was absolutely annihilated after this recent rout, About.com ( BOUT : Research , Estimates ), which is the ninth-largest Web property of all Web properties. The stock dropped from 100 in late March, to a low of $21. This is a company with a real business model that had blowout first-quarter earnings. And they are actually going to turn a profit in 2001. Investors went from 'everything Internet is good', to the 'everything Internet is bad' mantra. So now you've got to do your homework and look at individual names and identify the business models that are valid. And I think this is one that can go back to its old high.

Years earlier, I had helped Jimmy get into a USO tour I was doing with Connie B. Gay, a disc jockey friend of mine at WARL radio out of Arlington, Va.

Wayne Lukas

He was the prototype for what we're all looking for. He represented the jockey colony with so much dignity and class. He was always politically correct and always said the right things.

Luca Cumani

He hasn't ridden for me before but there's always a first time. The horse can get a little edgy when the jockey gets up, but he is fine on the track.

Matt Jones

Having had a positive pre-racing inspection with the Jockey Club last week following Hereford's summer break, this is obviously very frustrating but we must act appropriately.

Steve Asmussen

We're probably looking at a similar scenario, pace-wise, as the Kentucky Jockey Club.

James Loney

When we were released I was sure I could jump right back into ordinary life and that's what I wanted the most, but I'm afraid no such luck. When I can get through an ordinary day without shaking legs and a pounding heart, I think that will be a sign that I can start to tell my story.

Colin Farrell

When we were kind of forced (by real life sniper murders in the Washington area that were too close to the film's plot) to pull the picture in October (from its Nov. 15 date), he wasn't nearly as big a star as he is today after 'Daredevil' and 'The Recruit.' He's become this hot guy.

Autumn Reeser

When I was little, I was a voracious reader, and that really led me to acting as well. I loved being transported into someone else's life, and that's what reading provided me. I also really love to entertain people.

Philippe Petit

When I was learning by myself, despite my parents, despite my teachers, despite society, when I was fighting for building my life as a young wire walker at age 16, I didn't have feelings, I had certainties.

Johnathan Frakes

When I was just acting on the show, I learned my lines, went to sleep, then woke up and went to work. Now it's sort of become an obsession. I like the success. I'm thrilled with the way things have gone-but my life was simpler 10 years ago.

Rachel Tucker

When I was in the running for the role of Elphaba, I knew it was important to research and study as much background information as I could, so I got my head stuck into 'Wicked: The Life and Times of the Wicked Witch of the West' by Gregory Maguire, and I believe I lost many days, weeks, and months reading it - I was captivated!

Elvis Presley

When I was a child, ladies and gentleman, I was a dreamer. I read comic books, and I was the hero in the movie. So every dream I ever dreamed has come true a hundred times...I learned very early in life that: "Without a song, the day would never end; without a song, a man ain't got a friend; without a song, the road would never bed -- without a song." So I keep singing my song.

Don Phillips

We want to make sure we've got the managerial depth to drive the company forward,

John Naisbitt

We created the hierarchical, pyramidal, managerial system because we needed it to keep track of people and things people did; with the computer to keep track, we can restructure our institutions horizontally.

Walter Smith

He has been terrific since he has come back. It must have taken him a lot of thinking to give up playing for Scotland. He wouldn't have made that decision without a relevant reason. Everybody that has worked with him at managerial level will tell you that you will not find a better professional.

Brian Cashman

He's a real quality baseball man. He's been a big asset for us this year. I know he hasn't had any managerial experience but he's managed the game behind the plate for so many years that I think it makes up for a lot.

Steve Bleasdale

I am putting every effort into Peterborough United, a club that is very special to my heart. I have happy memories of my time at Chester, but I am starting my managerial career now.

James Geagan

My own opinion is most bottling line supervisors cannot be paid a salary. My opinion is whether (production supervisors) are doing a lot of manual labor or a little manual labor these people need to be paid as hourly employees, they do not make managerial decisions.

Bryan Price

It didn't look like I would be considered for the managerial position.

Randy Johnson

I think he did a great job. We had a lot of inconsistencies the first half of the year, and to win as many games as we did says a lot about his managerial skills.

Jeff Blauser

I thanked him for sending a top-notch major league pitcher to face us in my managerial debut. He got a chuckle out of that.

Louise Leakey

If you want to become a fossil, you actually need to die somewhere where your bones will be rapidly buried. You then hope that the earth moves in such a way as to bring the bones back up to the surface. And then you hope that one of us lot will walk around and find small pieces of you.

Paul Mason

Harlan Watson

We're getting very close. I'm quite confident we will have a successful outcome.

When we do catch things like this, it's our responsibility to report it. Hopefully, the kids can pull through and have a successful season still.

Bob Collins

We've asked all our section pros to put their program up on the Web site and I'm really, really excited the way they're starting to get involved.

Randy Honebrink

We've always tried to reduce the number of people getting bit by sharks through education and awareness. We try to get our safety tips out through our Web site and in publications.

M. Wolfe

We've always taken pride in having a convenient, interactive Web site, and the new design follows through on those initiatives.

Dan Beck

We've always had an aggressive e-commerce strategy. Since our first Web site in 1994, we realized a Web site was more than just a corporate brochure. It had to be an advanced business tool providing everything companies need to design, print and manage their documents online.

John Battelle

When it broke out in the mid 1990s, the web was society's first at-scale digital artifact. It spread in orders of ten, first thousands, then millions, then hundreds of millions of pages - and on it went, to the billions it now encompasses.

Chris Harris

We're so excited to have EDGE here in Providence. Finally -- we'll have a website that can reveal all that our city has to offer.

Brad Wilson

What we're seeing is a great deal of customization on country and industry levels. When Microsoft was developing its CRM, it made sure that it was built on a Web services architecture so that it can be easily adapted to specific local needs and requirements. We don't ship an out-of-the-box, property-management application, for instance, but those in real estate using the software can easily add apartment information without adding programming code.

Marcia Hellman

When we came in, we had over 100 orders (from the store's Web site) waiting. Usually, we have maybe 20 Steelers orders.

Lance Cutler

When we find really good ones, we'll post them on our Web site so restaurateurs can consider adding them to their list.
