Blue Quotes
I accepted the Toronto offer because, for one thing, my dream was to play for Toronto, but also because I was told by J.P. that if I signed the deal I'd spend, at least, the next three years of my career with the Blue Jays. I listened to J.P. That's something I never should have done. I look back on it, I just should have taken the money.
-
Direction Quotes
He spat in my direction; he apologized at the net after the match, and I accepted his apology. I don't think it's the right thing, and it's not good for the game. It's unfortunate because we were having a good dogfight match out there. We were going for it. It's sad that something like that happens. But I said, 'Just forget about it, mate'.

Alignment Quotes
Greenspan's remarks appear to be more balanced than in the past. He is moving into closer alignment with what has become accepted practice in most central banking circles. Missing, however, is what a central bank should do in order to avoid the pitfalls of excess dependence on overvalued assets.
-
Establish Quotes
Jake is in a groove at full back. He helps us establish the interior game we really have to have. He's more than accepted the role - that is a very unselfish person right there. You're looking at a kid who invested a lot of time in the summer to become the quarterback, but at this point and time we need him at this position.
-
Field Quotes
I think the guys have kind of accepted that with me and I think I try to go on the field and play that way. I'm not a guy who's going to be yelling or ranting and raving and trying to talk to be a leader. I'd rather lead by example. It's made me feel more comfortable out there on the field.

Biography Quotes
Last fall I finished a biography of Jim Lane and that has been accepted by Pelican and will be out in the future. He was the leader of the free state movement during the Bleeding Kansas era and was one of Kansas? first two senators. Missouri history buffs might remember him and his Lane Brigade as the ones who participated in the burning of Osceola.

Football Quotes
I was very surprised, very shocked and very disappointed. Really, it was accepted reluctantly on our behalf. But as always, you only want players who are happy here, who want to play for your football club, and Mark has made it known he wants to move on, so we have reluctantly accepted that.

Bill Quotes
I was just finishing high school and entering college in 1988, when the Creator's Bill of Rights was drafted, and had already set my sights on building a career as a writer of comics. Discovering the Creator's Bill of Rights - in an issue of 'The Comics Journal,' if I'm not mistaken - I accepted it as gospel.

Best Quotes
Jim had to go on the dole, but he didn't wear the pain on his sleeve. He accepted it and kept trying to do the best he could for his family. The Great Depression is a character, and I think the villain in this piece is poverty. If there's a single moment in Braddock's life that I think makes him important in history, it's the fact that he went to the Social Security Commission and repaid the money he'd taken when he was on the dole. That shows you more about his character than anything in his boxing career.

Best Quotes
People are going to look at this and say this is pretty rich wage increases for people who already make a lot of money. But the opportunities to improve productivity are still pretty high. A few years ago, 30 to 35 hours a vehicle was what was accepted as best practice. Now it's close to 20. The goal is now around 10.

Bad Quotes
Rohan has a strong throwing arm, so he was definitely able to give us the look when we faced big-armed quarterbacks who could throw the ball deep. He?s a professional. He always came in and did his job and you always want a guy like that, not someone with a bad attitude. He accepted his role knowing that he was behind Tom Brady and had to help get the defense together. He was competitive with it, and I think that helped. Those are the things that made him a good quarterback.
-
Band Quotes
It falls where it is. We've been accepted by gospel markets and jam band markets and different places that we never really tried to get. It still surprises me when somebody picks up a record that wouldn't normally buy a bluegrass record and says, 'That new record is awesome.' We didn't have that in mind when we cut it. But we'll take every one of 'em.

Adds Quotes
I think our tradition really helps set the bar. Knowing that nothing but winning a national championship is accepted really helps us. We got to the Sweet 16, we got to the Final Four, but we won't be recognized unless we win that national championship. I don't think that adds pressure. I think that helps start the mission.
