Across Quotes

Agencies Quotes

Again Quotes
This morning 40,000 of them turned up missing. Reports indicate that the birds have abandoned their wintering grounds in Delaware and that snow geese are showing up in New York. It is unclear whether the birds that stopped here briefly and then left recently still are somewhere at this same latitude or if they have pushed north. It would be somewhat early for large numbers of snows to be north of us but the movements of these birds is hard to predict. As soon as conditions permit they will usually try to push north, but if they encounter much snow or ice they will again retreat southward.

Cars Quotes
There were houses on top of houses, cars on trees, and abandoned cars everywhere. It looked like a complete war zone. There is no way certain sections of the Lower 9th Ward can be rebuilt. They just have to start over. The houses that were left weren't even houses, they were just piles of wood.

Asked Quotes
About three weeks ago I talked to Eunice police and the St. Landry Parish Sheriff's Office and asked them to increase patrols. We have been having problems.

I had a knife pulled on me just three or four months ago by three guys about 17 or 18 years old.

Alongside Quotes
If you have that kind of intimacy alongside ambition, ultimately it's going to leave an incredibly tragic impression on his psyche and spirit. He paid a huge price to write one of the great books of the 20th century. Capote didn't go to Kansas. Kansas reached out to New York and grabbed Capote. The minute he met Perry Smith, it was inevitable that these two men were going to die, one literally and one figuratively, because the identification they shared was too deep. The minute he got Perry to open up about his own life, and he learned they were both orphans, they were both abandoned children, he sees his muse, and that's the beginning of the end. Kansas sprung a trap on him.

Climbed Quotes
In the course of writing 'First Light,' I climbed all over and through the Hale Telescope, where I found rooms, stairways, tunnels, and abandoned machines leaking oil. My notebooks show tooth-marks where I gripped them with my teeth while climbing around inside the telescope, and the notebooks are stained with Flying Horse telescope oil.

Change Quotes
In these circumstances, it was left to me to consider whether the music that was FOREIGNER should be abandoned to history, leaving me to change direction and start a new venture, or whether it was something that I wanted to keep pursuing and enjoying. I'm happy to say that the vision of FOREIGNER as once more being a major force in Rock music prevailed, and I now am intent on making that happen.
