H. Hart

Ken Stringfellow

Our relationship, musically and friendship-wise, came to a halt for a couple of years, ...

Park did a great job. They came out really ready to play and I thought coach (Josh Wolf) did a really good job of having them just enough fired up, but just enough under control and calm. I thought they exhibited that in the game, and we didn't.

O. Henry

Religion I have disposed of all my property to my family. There is one thing more I wish I could give to them, and that is the Christian religion. If they had that and I had not given them one cent, they would be rich. If they have not that, and I had given them the world, they would be poor.

Overall, the moderate-priced stores such as J.C. Penney, Sears and Wal-Mart had good traffic levels.

So this could have impacted spending on other high-end items.

Scott Norton

Robbie's working hard and learning what it takes to play at that level. I think the experience of being around guys like Michael Peca, Ryan Smyth, Jason Smith and Chris Pronger is more valuable than anything he could learn in junior hockey, but I'm not Craig MacTavish or Kevin Lowe.

Reggie needs to not always look for the 3-pointer. He's got to play off that dribble, take it to the hole, which he's done more lately. A mid-range game opens up the 3-point shot. It makes him a more versatile player. And he needs to be a screener, because screeners get open. But it's getting better.

I think Mike is going to be a little longer. I don't see him rushing back or anything like that.

David Duke

As America is transformed from a 90 percent European American nation, as it was in the 1960s, to one where we will soon be a minority, should we not ask some pertinent questions. Is this racial diversity enriching, or will it be damaging to our social fabric?

Joseph Fiennes

I read as much as I could, but really just spoke to Chris Chibnall and asked all the pertinent questions.

Anne Boyd

But I fear, my lot being cast in Scotland, that beauty would not be content.

Beck

Every time you go in, it's like starting over. You don't know how you did the other records. You're learning all over. It's some weird musician amnesia, or maybe the road wipes it out.

I think Doug is starting to take it to another level.

The power of the computer is starting to spread.

I've never had that before, in how many years of coaching? So we've had it twice in two games, so we've got to get that squared away, too.

Phil Jackson

The win wasn't important for me, it was important for the team, ... But getting the win is twice as nice.

Rand Paul

Black unemployment is twice white unemployment and has been for decade after decade.
