Jim Johnson

I think we are playing pretty good defence right now. To say I wish Corey was not here, no I wish he was here, but he's not here and, I said it before, we just move on. It's an opportunity for those other guys that are playing pretty well.

I thought Corey Rouse was great down the stretch and really looked good.

Chuck Morton

Our price per credit hour is about $110-$115 less than the state schools. So you go to a state institution and try to get into graduate school, it's probably about $350 per credit hour so you're talking about a thousand dollars per course as opposed to $690 per course that we have here. So we think we have a viable product and there is a viable market out there for our product. And we think we're doing the right thing. We're upholding the standards of the institution, just looks good all around.

Wayne Huizenga

There are still a lot of Dolphins fans who have never had the opportunity to get to the Hall of Fame,

She got involved with the Dolphin Research Center. We have a picture of her swimming with the dolphins.

Ron Jaworski

I'm not a Saban guy, because I don't like liars, and I think he lied. I think he lied to the Miami Dolphins and to the fans of Miami, and he left. And it's pretty simple: I think integrity is very important; if you don't have integrity, I don't know how you can be successful.

Drew Brees

We did the 1972 Dolphins a big favor. But why? Two weeks ago, the 2005 Dolphins handed us a home defeat, which might end up costing us a spot in the playoffs. It would have been sweet revenge on the Dolphins had we lost to the Colts. With all this talk of whether or not the Colts should have rested their starters, wouldn't it have been funny if we had rested ours? That would have been hilarious.

Joe Bailey

First and foremost, the safety and security of our fans remains at the forefront of every event held at Dolphins Stadium. We embrace the National Football League's pat-down mandate.

Randy McMichael

We are not surprised by anything. This isn't the same old Dolphins. Last year's Dolphins would have lost this game, but this is a new team and a new day.

Chad Pennington

We talk about our football team complementing each other. The Dolphins put a good drive together, and on offense we needed to step up and put some points on the board. That's what we did.

Who doesn't like dolphins? They're like puppies.

Matt Cressman

Paul worked his butt off tonight. I thought he had waited too long to pass it, but he timed it just right and Mike finished it for us.

Part of our mission is to finish unfinished business.

Sean Foster

Steve played fired-up tonight. He was taking hits and still finishing plays inside. When he can score inside it opens up things for our shooters.

Statistics point to what happened in this game. We had problems finishing plays where we had the size advantage, and it was painful at the free-throw line.

Karl Malone

Starting off my career, I wasn't a good free throw shooter, and I worked at it and worked at it, and now I want to go up there and shoot free throws, and now... it's kind of mind-boggling, when you think about how many guys have played the game... when I finish playing and I look back on it, I think it'll be huge. Right now I'm still playing the game, it's kind of tough to really stop and think about it.

Some of the prongs are not down on the stone. The stone setter didn't finish his job.

Brent Eddy

Our team score was good enough to finish third but we still think we can improve our numbers.

Paul Morrison

(The) 10K (distance) is longer than I'm used to, ... But if the weather is right, with no wind, I think I have the fitness to do it.

David Cope

I thought Moffat did really well. You've got to remember it was 1-1 after 30 minutes. You could see fitness starting to tell in the second half. Our girls are very fit and pretty athletic.

Roy Makaay

I am back to the level I was before an injury. I've used the time to work on my fitness.

Paul Roos

For the sake of waiting another week, we can get in two sessions this week and next week. He has done a lot of running, his fitness is very good. He is 50/50.

Steven Blair

There is a misdirected obsession with weight and weight loss, the focus is all wrong. It's fitness that is the key.

Sven Eriksson

He will be fit, I am sure about that. We will have time to get the fitness we want.

Brendan Mallon

He never smoked and he was a physical fitness person, very healthy in his lifestyle. With any luck he would have had another five or 10 years of healthy living most likely.

Kofi Annan

particular to the relatives and friends of those who lost their lives in the service of the ideals of the United Nations.

Source Unknown

Some have half-baked ideas because their ideals are not heated up enough.

Mark Smith

That would be the ultimate ideal of utilizing Louisiana music.

Marcus Trescothick

It is not ideal to go into the last match with the series already decided, but a lot of ranking points are up for grabs.

David Dunn

I think that would be an ideal situation for Kerry.

Laura Halldorson

I think ideally we would like to stick with a lineup here down the stretch. That would be the goal, but I'm not going to rule out the possibility of tweaking it if we think we need to at some point.

Tom Sears

Justin is one of several possibilities that we are looking at. I met Justin several times last summer and he was obviously an ideal candidate.

Our offensive line wore them down and we just ran over them.

I. Stone

Our offensive line is not near where we need it to be. Our wide receivers are better than where we've been in the past, though.

John Swainson

Our results for the quarter were not in line with our expectations.

I got it to the location where I wanted it to be,

The place we moved from is kind of an older location downtown.

Most of us don't have cars. Location is important.

Hideo Kojima

As a game creator, I'm not 100% satisfied when looking back at the previous game that I released.

Michael Giles

Yes, there was a sort of underground cult following, which came from nowhere, and grew, and grew. It was quite surprising to us all, because all of us had spent probably the previous five to ten years without it. So it was quite overwhelming. Overwhelming and humbling.

Yikyung Park

In general, most previous studies have been inconsistent.

B. B. King

Water from the white fountain didn't taste any better than from the black fountain.

C. S. Lewis

Let's pray that the human race never escapes from Earth to spread its iniquity elsewhere.

Inner silence is for our race a difficult achievement. There is a chattering part of the mind which continues, until it is corrected, to chatter on even in the holiest places.

In this rat-race everybody's guilty till proved innocent!

Greg Gilchrist

I want to win this race really badly,

It is a long road that has no turning.

We really do have a lot of personality in WWE. You have to, to be in this job. You showcase a lot of personality.

Jermaine Wiggins

Man, that ain't even a thought for me, ... I can't get into that world. I've been around too long to start something like that up.

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.

Brian Boland

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

Bill Budge

The power of the computer is starting to spread.

Charles Davis

That was his first start and he was sharp.
