Wayne Coyne

We remixed them in 5.1, which doesn't sound like much, but let me tell you it's really a crazy, complicated thing to take these things that you did almost 15 years ago and revisit 'em in this format that only became available a couple years ago. A lot of bands can't do that because they don't have their own recordings. But we've always recorded ourselves, so it's a matter of me just going to the back room and grabbing the tapes and sort of putting them back on the reel. It's a weird treat.

Bill Lovette

We're making this investment to help meet continued, strong demand for refrigerated and pre-cooked bacon. The project is another example of the technology and food safety improvements we've initiated to position our processed meats business for future growth. For example, we've invested almost $15 million in our deli meats plant in Buffalo, N.Y., over the past two years.

Carl Honore

Kathryn Schulz

As a kid, I lived almost entirely inside books, and eventually the books started returning the favor. A lot of my internal world feels like an anthology, or a library. It's eclectic and disorganized, but I can browse in it, and that hugely shapes both what and how I write.

Lester Bangs

What this book demands from a reader is a willingness to accept that the best writer in America could write almost nothing but record reviews.

Gary Chaison

What they've done is really almost jump-start reconsideration of health care benefits,

Nate Harris

When we came up on the board, we almost tore coach Morrill's house apart. It was awesome.

Karolyn Grimes

I started with the Target Company in 1993 when their Christmas theme that year was 'It's A Wonderful Life,' and they reunited the actors who played the Bailey kids. So we went all over and really had a blast getting the love from all of the fans and thought, 'Whoopty-doo, there's something going on here.'

Brian Rose

He might have been approached but I can't say if negotiations are taking place... all I know is that Bailey is still the coach.

Bill Cowher

I don't know, that's a good question. I hopefully don't add to that list. Champ Bailey is one of, if not the top corner in the game today. I know I felt that way. We're going to be aware of him, I can tell you that.

Greg Heiar

Gulf Coast played tremendous. They got some great individual performances from Ray Bailey and Robert Mitchell. We were just lucky that we made our free throws.

Brian Finneran

Chris McAlister is probably the toughest defensive back for a wide receiver. It's a combination of his size and strength. He's the whole package. Troy Vincent , Champ Bailey and Charles Woodson are up there, too, but McAlister is the whole package.

Dave Harris

I thought Aaron wrestled a very good match. The Bailey kid is the best wrestler in the nation, and Aaron was tied with him until the final 20 seconds. Wrestling kids of that caliber is why we come to these tournaments. It's a great experience and does nothing but make you better.

Bob Grimes

I was anxious to see how Amber would come out. She was a little tired but she did a nice job moving the ball. Then Bailey (Franklin) did a nice job coming in.

Marcus Walton

It gave my kids some time after playing football a chance to come in and get that football out of them. To get their legs back under them. It's a difference between game speed and practice speed. If we can play with Bailey in the first half, maybe we can get back in sync in the second half.

Rob Salter

We're starting to be unselfish and make good decisions.

Skip Holtz

We're going to treat it like tryouts, and after the week, we're making our decisions and we're going with them. We can't wait any longer.

Greg Mack

We found that decisions are better when people make them collectively in small groups. Also, it's important to get the right people involved, and all the right people aren't always present. So we needed a way to do collaboration among distributed people on distributed systems.

Dave Newton

We got to where we made some better decisions as far as passes were concerned. We didn't hold the ball as much and telegraph passes. I though we had better reversal. We got out on the break a little bit better where we were able to get some better looks at the basket and not get into so many half-court sets. We do want these kids to get out and use some of their athleticism and play in the open court a little bit and I thought we did a much better job of that in the second half.

Craig Brehon

We both decided not to eat there anymore. We'd make decisions together like that.

Shirley Walker

We're going to have to do that. I thought about some things that we need to do. We're just going to bring 'Shan out of the game to give her some rest regardless. Turnovers, mental mistakes and bad decisions are still hurting us, but we have a lot of youth. We told the kids what they have to do is keep a positive mind, a healthy mind, to do what they have to do to bring their game up.

Brent Bower

We're going to have to be a smarter basketball team the last three or four minutes. If it comes down to it, we have confidence in our free throws. Against Newark I don't think we played good defense. Against Lancaster we didn't handle the ball well or make good decisions.

Adam Ereli

We've asked the government of Libya to identify the source of the interference and resolve the problem. And we'll be continuing to investigate it.

John Stossel

When we were scared about 9/11, we federalized the airport security, we spent millions for body armor for dogs in Ohio. All that over-reaction comes from fear and government - bad combination.

When I was in government it was routine for these CIO agents and their factional counterparts in government and ZANU PF politicians to abuse me as a scapegoat for anything they were unable to explain or defend.

Jim Hall

When I was in government I always paid close attention to whistleblowers. While sometimes people consider them a thorn in the side, many times they're very conscientious individuals who are trying to do their job.

John Clippinger

To move online security to the next level, there has to be fundamental resolve among consumers, government and business to quickly adopt a system where the individual has more control over how information about them is managed and shared. Our aim is to construct an open and widely accessible software framework that puts the individual at the centre of the identity management universe. With this framework in place, it will be easier for society to begin the migration to more secure online environments, where trusted networks can not only be easily formed, but effectively enforced. For in the end, security is not just technological, but social.

Will Self

Her soulful voice and her emotional, believable musical delivery reaches audiences in a direct manner not often afforded many singers.

Liza Minnelli

I was sitting on my mom's lap across from my father to see Kay Thompson at Ciro's. And I always remember this energy force, this woman flying around the room and singing these harmonies so everyone went, 'Wow!' So I thought, 'That's what I want to do.'

Rick Reilly

Joe Kay isn't half as quick of feet or brain as the old one,

Marguerite Young

Like Kay Boyle, whose work I'm wild about, I could have married, written a book with every baby, a baby with every book.

Henry A. Kissinger

It is hard to believe that Kay is no longer among us. But in a way, she will never leave us. Her place in this country will not be filled, nor the void her death leaves on the lives of her friends,

Robin Wright

From the time I was wee big, my mother was one of the first members of Mary Kay Cosmetics. Women going door-to-door and letting housewives have their own business - that was really a breakthrough. It was huge.

Robert Gottlieb

Most writers are vulnerable and insecure, and Kay Graham was more so than most.

Phil Robertson

I told Miss Kay we need to make sure our children don't turn out like I turned out, so they were raised up around biblical instruction. That mixed with discipline - the discipline code, I call it. They just had a lifestyle of seeing their parents do good things.

Douglas Preston

My hobbies are mountain biking, horseback riding and packing, canoeing and kayaking, hiking, camping, cooking, and skiing.

Casey Rabach

We've always seemed to be able to overcome, and the last two weeks it just wasn't happening. It was disappointing, because we know we're better than that.

Jamie Dixon

Jim Hendry

We've always had a lot of respect for him. He pitched so well against us for Houston. He went out there last year with some discomfort and gutted out his starts in Boston. He's a winning-type guy. He's a winning pitcher who, when he's out there, he wins you games.

Philip Goodhart

We've always had a broader cultural coverage, particularly in the last three or four years We have short stories in every issue. We have more of an interior life. Perhaps the mistake was not to make more noise about that in the earlier issues.

We're getting tons of calls on this. Customers are disappointed that RIM is putting this legal case before them.

Mrs. Parks' act of brave defiance rocked the foundation of American society and inspired generations of civil rights leaders and created a sense of hope for every American facing legal discrimination in this country.

Hani Durzy

When we asked them to show us a law to show it is unlawful, and they were unable to do so, we said they're legal as far as we're concerned.

Craig Holman

What he's doing here is frankly astonishing. This kind of coordination is obviously an attempt to get around legal contribution limits. The bottom line is that public policy is being made not by principle, but by payment up front.

Tom Jackson

What he said to me was that it's the right thing to do. It might be legally gray, but it's the right thing to do.

Michael Marrero

What has to happen in order for a house to be brought down are a lot of legal things. We have to provide a notice to the owners and that takes X number of days.

Terry Lickona

We've always known there was a reason to keep all these original masters. We've never erased a single tape from any show we've ever done.

We're proud of these old shows and we think they deserve to be seen by new generations of fans and people that have been fans all along.

John Gibbons

You don't look at results in the minor leagues because I don't think I've ever seen a guy go down there and not get hit around.

Julie Brough

We're stalled. When you see oil prices back up to their high, you've seen gold hovering around $600 US, people are making some really good money and I think there's a lot of people who are just taking the opportunity to crystallize some gains which is keeping the market at bay a little bit right now.

David Paulson

We're so impressed with the state we're using it as a model (for future disasters), ... It was something we've not seen in a long time. There was a unified system and the sharing of information.

Alain Vigneault

We're going to take that on a day-to-day basis, it depends on how the groin reacts. He's improved every day that I've seen him. (Tuesday) night was his best game so far. Obviously, he's got a ways to go but that's only going to come with time.

Saleem Cheeks

We've always been urging the Senate to join the Assembly in passing it.

Michele Bachmann

When I was in Minnesota serving in the state Senate and in Washington, D.C., I did everything I could to defeat cap and trade. I didn't work to implement cap and trade.

Patrick Moynihan

Americans simply ask for, not just Democrats in the House but also the Senate has asked the President for a clear plan as it relates to dealing with the issue of Iraq and our troops and making sure that we can bring families together in the very near future.

John Boehner

When we get to the conference with the Senate, we'll consider it, but the Senate language, I think, is irresponsible,

J. Taylor

What a dark day for the Senate Saturday was.

J. C. Watts

We found information in support of a small break and encourage the senate to vote in approval of it.

Working with Troop A, we were successful in getting the Senate to approve a plan that would protect our first responders and prevent highway fatalities, ... Dozens of police officers and fire fighters have lost their lives in accidents that should have been avoidable. Our initiative instructs the Department of Transportation to develop model legislation that will increase awareness and help save lives.

What a great event for the governor to help New Hampshire Republicans, as Senator Sununu has helped Massachusetts Republicans.

Dan Stessel

We greatly appreciate the support of New Jersey's congressional delegation, particularly Senators Lautenberg and Menendez, who were instrumental in delivering this funding.

Katherine Harris

We're in this race to stay. We don't - quite frankly, people are going to decide who is going to be their next United States senator at the ballot.

Michael Markarian

We applaud Senators Ensign and Byrd for winning this resounding victory for horses. Senate offices received thousands of calls from constituents who love horses, and we thank lawmakers for acting decisively to end the slaughter of these American icons and trusted companions. The identical language from the House and Senate should put this issue to rest and save tens of thousands of horses from a grim and painful end.

Eric Epstein

We've all got to play by the same rules, and I think the senator wants to tilt the playing field. And I think what he did (with respect to Penn State) is what's wrong with Harrisburg.

Geoffrey Kors

We strongly urge Senators from both the Democratic and Republican Party to pass AB 1207 and then for Governor Schwarzenegger to sign it into law. Voters have the right to know whether candidates are willing to agree to refrain from using bias and prejudice as part of their election strategy or whether they intend to resort to the worst kind of election tactics. This legislation will ensure that voters know whether a particular candidate's moral values include running a morally ethical campaign.

Eric Peltzer

We started off the second period and the Senators looked like they were really moving out. They came out strong; the second period was a really tough period.

Mike Rothman

We've asked the city to comply with the state law and provide MRI with this 180-day procedure and because they have not, we have filed this suit on behalf of MRI.

Michele Bachmann

When I was in Minnesota serving in the state Senate and in Washington, D.C., I did everything I could to defeat cap and trade. I didn't work to implement cap and trade.

Lois Lowry

J. Horton

We're making history again. Never before have we supported so many state and federal missions.

Mathias Kiwanuka

We're starting to figure out what kind of a team we are. We played Florida State well last week, but we still lost. We're not looking for moral victories. We had to come here and win.

Bruce Clark

We're starting all over again in the place where I was most happiest, up here in State College.

Larry Krantz

We respect the rights of Texans to have fun. But people need to realize that everyone pays when the state has to constantly stop what it's doing to repair this kind of damage. It takes away from our other responsibilities like building and maintaining roadways.

Terry Lickona

We've always known there was a reason to keep all these original masters. We've never erased a single tape from any show we've ever done. We've just about run out of space to store these tapes, but they've turned out be gems. We're proud of these old shows and we think they deserve to be seen by new generations of fans and people that have been fans all along.

Nikki Sixx

When we were younger, you know, small stuff was small stuff. But we turned it into big stuff. It's just part of being young.

Megan Knode

We're so happy with how things have turned out.

Gerry Fleming

We're getting too cute, too fancy (with passes). That's what happens when you got new guys coming into the lineup that are skilled players playing with guys who are skilled players. Everybody wants to show off and show how great they are and how fancy they can make things happen. As a result, we turned the puck over and we all looked like we had no idea what we were doing.

Bruce Kasman

What we're seeing in the report is clear signs that manufacturing has turned. And I think it's turned pretty sharply.

Brad Shaw

What they've done for us lately is when we've had a couple of shifts where we haven't done things well and lost momentum, they've been a great line to regain that momentum or at least get it turned around. You know what you're going to get for the most part every shift.

Michael Otto

When we bought it, Spiegel was in a difficult situation; it made a loss at that time. We invested in it and then it turned around, and then we bought Eddie Bauer and Newport News.

Rick Moranis

When we were producing the Great White North comedy album, my experience in radio told me I needed two singles in order to get enough airplay.

John Tesh

When I was playing piano, it was like, 'I'm going to write a song using all the white keys.' My music director, who knew my jazz background, suggested I try big-band music, so we spent a year experimenting with it in concert, and the audience reaction was really good.

John Travolta

When I was a kid in the 60s, believe it or not, most of you are younger and don't know that, but it was a blast to fly! You dressed up, you got in your Sunday best, women wore white gloves, you had room to stretch your legs out, you had a very nice meal, the stewardess paid particular attention to you. It was an event. It's so different today.

Edmund White

When I was a child, I loved 'The Marble Faun' by Nathaniel Hawthorne. The reason I liked it was because it had a beautiful binding. When you're a kid, you like books because they're pretty to look at, and this one had a white calfskin cover and gold edges. That was enough to make me love it.

John Edwards

We're missing some of that leadership in the White House now.

Richard Armey

We're going to take the president's submission as a serious proposal, and we're going to see where we can go and how we can work with the White House and the Democrats,

Mike Shula

We're going to put importance on the depth chart through the jerseys. We talked to the guys who have the white jerseys on offense and the crimson jerseys on defense about how you have to fight every day to hold on to those jerseys. We want it on their minds. We want to create an atmosphere that we have more competition that we've ever had.

Dick Armey

What we're not willing to do is to get ourselves into some complex negotiation with the White House where they initiate some increase in spending ... We just don't believe that is a dignified process,

John Niven

Whenever someone like a plumber or a mechanic tries to explain something technical to me, I listen for about three seconds before it all just becomes white noise, like Charlie Brown's teacher.

David Snowden

We've always worked well within DoD guidelines and of course will continue to do so. We support the directive and all regulations that would protect military members from unscrupulous business practices.

David Mandelbrot

We've always worked directly with the owners of content to make that content available. In our experience, that has not slowed us down too much, and it has helped us to build strong relationships that have helped us in other parts of our business.

Anthony Dragona

We've always worked cooperatively with the department, and we're only asking for cost of living increases.

James Lipton

When it began I wrote this passionate letter to people I knew, studio members, of course, and other people with whom we have worked over the years and I said come and teach our students.

Geno Zamora

Tom said people in our country should not live like this. We filed law suits in Dona Ana County and it worked for two reasons. The developers knew they would be held accountable and there was some serious reform of the New Mexico Subdivision Act.

Richard Costigan

We're somewhat disappointed. We've been working with the Legislature all year on a great policy bill. ... We really worked up until the 11th hour.

Natalie Taylor

We're getting to know one another. We've really improved from last week to this week. We worked as a team and communicated a lot more.

Stan Conte

We're going to go back to the things that worked the last eight years. No matter what age a person is, he still has to go out and run.
