Dwight Quotations

I don't always match up with guys like Dwight Howard or Andrew Bynum, but when I do, those guys are a challenge. Dwight, for example, is quick, explosive, and strong all in one.

When I first came into the league, I was with Tim Dwight in San Diego, and a guy named Eric Parker, who really showed me the work ethic it takes to be an NFL receiver, and I've really tried to keep that with me.

Dwight D. Eisenhower, in my judgment, will go down in history as one of the four 'great' presidents since the U.S. reluctantly became an empire in World War II; Richard Nixon as the nearest to a sociopath by the time he was compelled to resign.

Dwight is a sad clown. You've seen those paintings of sad clown.

I caddied for Dwight Eisenhower and Omar Bradley long before they became generals or president, for that matter. Just between you and me, Bradley tipped better than Eisenhower did.

I met Gerald Ford. I met Richard Nixon. I met Jimmy Carter. I met Dwight Eisenhower when he was a general. George Bush senior. I haven't met Bill Clinton or George W. Bush, although I got a letter from him.

Modern Foods and Dwight Yoakam, as a team, have been very adept at creating innovative retail food products that zero in on the changing needs of the consuming public. The positive consumer feedback has been tremendous, it just shows we are moving in the right direction.

Of course, Dwight D. Eisenhower gets credit for doing more for golf than any other White House resident, a mid- to high-handicapper though he was.

He treated Dwight like a son. I know it pains him. He has nothing but hope for that kid.

He was a great guy. Dwight at 17 was the most mature, most eager young athlete. He was the earliest at the ballpark. He was always in the game.

I thought Dwight really dominated in the first half. They made some good adjustments after halftime and their bench really contributed. It was tough to match their intensity.

I saw a tremendous player in Dwight Freeney playing at the top of his game and as dynamic a presence on the outside rush as there is in the game.

Robert will always be in the shadow of Dwight because Dwight is clearly a difference-maker. But he's not like a mini-Dwight, he's like another Dwight.

Our position is still that we're delighted with Dwight's contribution, delighted that he's on a two-year deal and want to see him back here next season. But internally and publicly we have been trying very hard to help Dwight find suitable arrangements until the World Cup.

Steve Francis was out and they were doing a good job against Dwight Howard , so I had to take over and do something to help. My teammates and coach kept giving me the ball at the end and had confidence in me and it's really nice. I'm just happy to be in that role.

We know that we have a couple of more years together to work at building something special here. I know being here with Dwight means a lot to me. And I really think we're going to have a lot of fun together.

We'll give Dwight the ball where he needs the ball -- on the move, in action where he's not seeing triple and double teams.

We did the same thing to them. We went to (John Paxson) and 'Pax' was covered and Jimmy Dolan made the game-winner. It goes both ways. Doc Rivers hit that shot but I'll trade Doc Rivers for Jimmy Dolan and still go with Dwight Clay and that buzzer shot.

We don't like to slow the pace down. Against Dwight, we went to a zone to give the girls a bit of a breather and Dwight came back on us. That's not going to happen again.

Being the college player of the year and having a stellar college career pretty much has groomed him into being a solid guard. He's in the same position now that Dwight was in the beginning of the year. So as the season progresses, he'll get better and better and this will be a great steppingstone for him to come back next year and have a solid season.

At a book festival in Fort Lauderdale, I met David Eisenhower, Ike's grandson, who was promoting his book 'Going Home to Glory: A Memoir of Life with Dwight D. Eisenhower,' in which he describes attending the Yankees' 154th game in 1961. The whole family had been following Mantle and Maris chase Babe Ruth's home run record across the country.

Dwight was sensational. As I've said all year, he's continued to grow and grow and grow and has gotten better in every phase of the game. But to get 26 rebounds. That's a monster effort for anybody and you don't see that too often in today's game.

Dwight was everything the Bear ever said he would be.

Dwight should be good to go. Dallas Clark is about the same. We'll know once he takes the (neurological) test. If he passes the test, he'll be able to play.

Dwight sat out of practice but we think he's going to be fine and ready to play. He's got a little foot soreness, not really a sprain but just a sore foot. But all indications are he should be ready to go. So we just wanted to rest him today.

Dwight is a good player. Not just in an individual way but he is a guy who can move the team.

Dwight has to commit to his teammates that he's going to be a better free-throw shooter. It's a little difficult when you go to a guy for 3 1/2 quarters and then, down the stretch, you can't because he's not making foul shots.

Dwight has come back fit and refreshed and he is ready to play. He is good in the mind and he is good in the legs after watching him training so he will play.

Dwight could have a shot at greatness. That's kind of always been the difference in the two.

Dwight Clark told me that he thought I was a phenomenal talent, and that Bill Walsh would love a guy like me, ... Bill was intrigued. Once word got out that I tried out with the 49ers, I could've picked where I wanted to go.

Dwight and Tony got every rebound. They didn't get second and third shots like they were getting in the first half. Because they had everybody going for the offensive rebounds, we were able to get out and run. That's what the third quarter was all about. Good defense, hold them to one shot and get out and run.

I've spoken to Dwight about coming over and I think he's quite keen on it. His season in Australia finishes in February and he will need a team to stay in shape for the World Cup. It's the biggest tournament in the world so there's no way he won't be in top condition for it. To be that, he needs games, so I think it would be perfect for him to come here.

The situation is one where Dwight spoke to Warner and he spoke to me and a decision was then agreed upon. Warner made it clear that they would like me to contribute and for the cause at the moment, for Dwight, for Jack Warner and the country, I am willing to do whatever I can.

The thing I liked most was that when Dwight was matched up with Duncan, he took the ball right at him. That's what we've been trying to get him to do all season. We want him to take it right at the defender rather than the finesse stuff. Maybe as he continues to get confidence from the foul line, he'll do that.

I've met him numerous times. Me and Dwight go way back. We'll try to avoid any contact until after the game. I'll say 'Hi' to him after the game, but that's the only time I want to see him.

I've met him numerous times, ... Dwight and I go way back.

After seeing all the evidence and all the pictures, there was no doubt that this was something that had to be done. To recommend the court impose the death sentence for Dwight T. Eagling.

Now it is to prepare Dwight (Thomas) to win the Common-wealth Games and to challenge the world record.

Anyway, it was at the Electric Cowboy and there were about 180 of us there and they gave us all a number. I had to sing a cappella and that always makes me really nervous. I thought my mouth was going to get dry or I was going to crack a note. I really thought, 'I'm fixin' to ruin this deal right here.' But I sang 30 seconds of Dwight Yoakam's cover of the Elvis Presley song 'Little Sister' and I made it through it. Then they pulled me off to the side and asked me to come back the next day. They only asked 18 of us to come back, and that was pretty good.

This is probably the most threatened the Arctic refuge has been since 1960, when it was established as a reserve by President Dwight Eisenhower.

This gives us the opportunity to acquire a 7-footer with a high skill level. We feel that he will be a nice complement playing alongside (forward) Dwight Howard.

A lot of guys look forward to the spotlight being on them. So guys like myself and Nate Robinson, Charlie Villanueva did a great job there tonight. Dwight Howard is known in this league. Everybody out here is just looking to be known as one of the next players to be great in this league.

Although Jermaine is injured we will be positive and we will definitely be introducing at least two of our new players in Nicholas McCreath (formerly of Harbour View) and Dwight Heron (formerly of Rivoli),

As son of a Republican president, Dwight D. Eisenhower, it is automatically expected by many that I am a Republican. For 50 years, through the election of 2000, I was.

I'm not too sure whether moving Dwight into the front would have made any difference (against the Mariners) but it may be different the next time.

In the past we've had Dwight Clark, Jim Brown, Lawrence Taylor, Dave Krieg and Danny White come out here Friday to practice.

In the budget, the president will call for a five-year freeze on discretionary spending other than for national security. This will reduce the deficit by more than $400 billion over the next decade and bring this category of spending to the lowest share of our economy since Dwight Eisenhower was president.

Howard is going to be a great player in this league. Kevin already is a great player. Kevin knows all the tricks of the trade. Dwight will someday be there, but Kevin is still above him.

He's got a lot on the ball. He's the best young pitcher I've ever seen. I didn't see Dwight Gooden when he was young, but of all the young kids I've seen, he's by far the furthest along.

I believe people who are in a position of visibility and leadership affect the character of young people and individuals who look to them as leaders ... and in some respects just as important as their policies and positions is their character and their substance. What for me makes people like Teddy Roosevelt and Franklin Roosevelt and John Adams and George Washington and Dwight Eisenhower and Ronald Reagan such extraordinary leaders is that they had integrity through and through. What they were on the inside and what they said on the outside was harmonious ... I think that if people try to live a very different personal life not consistent with the role they've assumed as a governor or a senator or a president, we lose something as a nation.

Once he makes up his mind, he's full of indecision. - On Dwight D. Eisenhower

You want what's best, but I don't look at him as a criminal. I look at him as not being able to say, 'No.' I can't visualize Dwight ever hurting anybody.

Well, Dwight was born to be No. 2 and I don't think he would know what to do as a leader. But he loves following. He would have made a great fascist.

There have been many amazing Presidents in American history, including George Washington, Abraham Lincoln, Dwight Eisenhower and Ronald Reagan, all of whom I greatly admire.
