Dumb Quotations | Page 2

We make a lot of dumb mistakes. Just mental errors down the stretch. Turnovers. Just mental lapses that come back and get us. ... Giving somebody an open 3-pointer. Not being in the right place on a play.

We made some mistakes, but we overcame them. We did some dumb things, but we overcame them. I thought as a whole, we played pretty darn good.

We made some dumb mistakes which came back to hurt us. We controlled the clock and the ball, but just couldn't seem to cash in when needed to. Give credit to Penn. They've got a great defense.

I’ll spend my life training just for the moment I have my chance at you. I’ll wait until you think I’ve forgotten today. I’ll wait until you think it was just a dumb guild rat’s threat. After I’m a master, you’ll jump at shadows for a while. But after you jump a dozen times and I’m not there, you won’t jump just once, and that’s when I’ll be there. I don’t care if you kill me at the same time. I’ll trade my life for yours.

One thing I do find in the "lost" generation or something is a kind of abhorrence of history, you know, like it's boring, dumb, or just not interesting. I think it's terribly interesting if you can get your head around how it relates to where you're standing right here and now.

The pace of digital innovation is astonishing. It's impossible to imagine life without the web, smartphones, social networks. And yet the consumer products and everyday objects all around us are still essentially dumb.
