George Quotations | Page 5

I think that I'll give BC a lot of credit. George Mason, Yale, Stony Brook -- those three teams died when we came out hard and they didn't have a lot of fight in them, but I think BC just kept fighting back. Every opportunity they got they wanted to go hard to the goal cage. I think for the second half, for us, it was just playing with a little bit more poise and confidence, and really just getting the ball to our attackers so they could score.

I went through that phase. But it's different for George because we have different family dynamics. Her background is really different from mine.

I watched him around guys like George Harrison and Eric Clapton, and I realized the look in their eyes was the same look I had when I looked at Dad.

I went to L.A. to be Brad Pitt; now I just want to be Gene Hackman. I came to Nashville to be Kenny Chesney. I'd be very fortunate to be George Strait.

I think the single thing that George brought was his interest in and introduction of Indian music into rock and roll,

It is an outrage and an insult to the women of this country that George W. Bush has nominated such a jurist to be chief justice of the United States,

It is amazing, ... When we did it, there were no scholarship limitations. We could have as many players as we wanted. We won with talent and depth. How could you not do well running behind linemen like Leon Hart and George Connor?

It is a wonderful and unexpected honor to receive the Bank of Sweden Prize in Economic Sciences in Memory of Alfred Nobel. Receiving this prize with Joseph Stiglitz and George Akerlof, whose work I have learned from and admired, makes it even more gratifying.

I think there is an opportunity now that never existed before. This is due to a combination of public opinion in Israel, my commitment and the understanding and hopefully future support of President George W. Bush.

I think there are some obvious ones. Everyone knows that Cleveland wanted him. Dallas had put an offer out on him a couple years ago. Everybody knows that George Karl (Nuggets and former Bucks coach) is still in this game. Reggie Miller is leaving Indiana, and he's a two (guard). Those are just four teams off the gate.

I wrote a script, Steven loved it, wanted to shoot it this year. George didn't love it, it got sort of lost between two conflicting opinions and now I think they're trying to figure out what, if anything, to do from here,

I think Dina's very, very good, but I'm just not sure how she beats Jim Gibbons, ... I'm not going to say she can't, but I don't see how she brings the kind of Democrat who will vote for George Bush to the table.

I suppose anyone that comes up against George is in for a tough day at the office.

I saw George Brett go out of his mind.

I saw Boy George looking amazing, absolutely unbelievable, and messaged him asking for the number of his nutritionist. I got in touch with her, and she put me on this diet plan, working out which foods do and don't suit me. It's not rocket science - basically, don't eat cake, don't eat bread.

I resigned myself to this eventuality. After all, it was the musician's name first (he's a lot older than I am, certainly, and perhaps more famous), and . . . But then I remembered. . . . Bill Wyman the Rolling Stone wasn't born Bill Wyman. . . . His real name, Stones fans know, is William George Perks.

I remember when President Bush, George W. Bush, came into office, he focused on No Child Left Behind, and with - and before very long, suddenly, Republicans were thought of as being as interested and as competent in education as Democrats, and why? Because they were talking about it and doing something about it.

Over the past four seasons of The Apprentice , Donald Trump has used the final episode to hire candidates with advice only from George and Carolyn. This year we thought it would be interesting to discover what America has to say about the candidates, incorporating our fans and viewers as virtual judges. While Trump will still be the final arbiter of who he hires, America's feedback is certain to have an impact on his decision.

Over the years, George has been one of the most successful equity portfolio managers in the financial services industry.

Out of this despair is going to come a vibrant coast, ... I understand if you're saying to yourself, 'Well, it's hard for me to realize what George W. is saying because I've seen the rubble and I know what has happened to my neighbors.' But I'd like to come back down here in about two years and walk your streets and see how vital this part of the world is going to be.

Republicans can point to the past, but they can't justify the present. It is a simple fact -- lobbying is booming under Bush. Since George Bush came to town, the number of lobbyists has doubled in Washington.

Remember who stood up to George Bush first. It wasn't anybody from the ... city of Washington, D.C.,

Remember when George Bush (Senior) went through a checkout line and was unfamiliar with how scanners work at the supermarket?

picked the person he knew the best and he trusted the most, and that's classic George W. Bush.

... Recalling back to Operation Desert Storm, I can't help asking myself: Wouldn't it be great for our armed forces and for America if we could have another commander-in-chief named George Bush with Dick Cheney on his team?

Ore had some good runs. He put the ball on the ground one time, but I thought he showed some quickness through the hole. And I thought George Bell showed some good ability, too.

Part of George R.R. Martin's brilliant storytelling is taking the carpet out from under your feet.

Paul George (principal planner with the Jackson Planning Department) kept telling them the noise and the traffic (from the bar) would not be a problem. That is why I think it is a gay issue.

Peace in the Middle East has been on the Obama administration's mind from the beginning. Two days after his inauguration, the president traveled to the State Department to announce the appointment of George Mitchell as his Middle East peace negotiator.

Our minds are open, ... I reached out to George Bush. I wanted him here.

People have positive associations with George Foreman. Part of the value of having a good, positive brand image, like George Foreman does, is you can take that brand and you can put it on new products.

People hope to point to the White House with pride. We believe that presidents told the truth and set an example through their actions. We parents want our children to respect and admire our president and our leaders. It is as simple as the old story of George Washington chopping down the cherry tree.

Someone has done this before. George Foreman did it,

My wife was making coffee, and I was on the George Foreman grill making hamburgers when she noticed the smoke.

Living on campus is not just about a convenient commute to work. My residence at The George Washington University is about being available in the case of student or campus-wide emergencies.

Look at what happened to George W. Bush. The first time he doesn't get a plurality. Then he gets 50.8 percent. He seemed to be very relieved.

Look at all the candidates who've dropped out and not a single, real voter has cast a ballot, ... Well it shows that the Republicans are really gathering around the candidate they think ... is a winner and that's George W. Bush. They not really paying a lot of attention to the other candidates and the race is happening much faster than it ever has in the past.

Let me say that if John Kerry is the nominee I'm going to support him, ... Second of all, if John Kerry were the nominee, I'd advise him not to pick me because you don't need two people from New England on the ticket. I will do whatever I can to beat George Bush.

Martha Graham, along with George Balanchine, is one of the two commanding figures in 20th-century American dance. For those much younger than I am, her genius as a performer will have to be taken on faith - and on the always-suspect evidence of film. What will last, if things go well, is her genius as a choreographer, as a woman of the theater.

I will work closely with John Kerry to make sure we beat George Bush in November and turn our country around.

I was told my son was killed in the war on terror. He was killed by George Bush's war of terror on the world.

I was glad to have been associated with the Post-Herald during a crucial time in Alabama history, during the George Wallace era and during the push for civil rights. It was a great time to be a reporter.

I think our senator needs to be held accountable for her support of George Bush and his war policies.

I think right now, George is very happy.

It doesn't really surprise me and I hope that what George Best has given to football will improve the game as we know it.

I tell you, he's President George Bush, not King George Bush. This is not the system of government we have and that we fought for.

I think if Tony Blair falls in the next year or so, Iraq and his decision to play very close to George Bush will undoubtedly be a crucial factor.

I think if the vice president loses this election, ... One of the questions people will ask post-mortem is: How did Al Gore forfeit the advantage he had over George Bush in foreign policy?

I think he's nailed it. This is about moving forward or just fighting to survive. If we have George W., that's what it will be for us, just trying to survive.

I think he should hire somebody like John Dowd or set up a committee. He needs to do that, maybe headed by Mario Cuomo or George Mitchell, somebody of that ilk.

I think history will say that George W. Bush knocked it out of the park when he selected John Roberts to be chief justice of the United States.

I think he was so popular because he was never a politician, ... I don't think he's a politician even today. I really think George is a public servant. I would say he's the best public servant we've had in central Illinois - local, county, state and federal. He's not just for his party, he's for what's right.

I think George just nailed the whole thing, the whole time period, the whole look and feel of what that newsroom was like. I did a lot of research for the role and believe me, it's all pretty genuine, down to the very last cigarette butt.

I think George is a very good player, and it would have been interesting if he had had a shot at the Tests.

I think George Hamilton is going to be a good competitor.

I think George Bush has some nerve attacking anybody on special interests,

I think George Bush cares about one thing more than anything else, and that's executive power.

I still want to manage here, and I'm satisfied that George feels he still wants me to manage here, ... I had to not only hear it, but (also) hear the tone in which it was said.... I'm not asking him to change. I just wanted, for my own satisfaction, to find out if he still trusts me with his team.

It demonstrates the massive economic, as well as environmental and social penalties, of George Bush 's policies.

I think Microsoft would like to wait until after the election, and maybe if George W. Bush wins, they could get treated better by a Bush Justice Department. I think they're delusional if they think that's going to get them out of their problem, but I wouldn't be surprised if that's in the backs of their minds.

I think Lindsay always manages to have a great game against George Mason, but I think when you have somebody that's willing to go hard it kind of takes away any apprehensions that the rest of the team might have so we can go after them hard.

It is disruptive, ... But George Bush is the one who caused the disruption, not us.

I'm still regretting that we were bounced into sacking George Burley. I think that was a very big mistake,

I'm still regretting that we were bounced into sacking George Burley, ... I think that was a very big mistake. I know Bobby Robson was lined up as one of the front-runners but I wouldn't be surprised if he was having second thoughts.

I'm sick and tired of you people stirring things up against George W. Bush the minute he does something you don't completely agree with, when he has just given you 20 things you do agree with.

Manning doesn't miss many good shots. And the other kids around him understand their roles. George does a great job with them.

Many Americans, and many more people around the world, have been outraged by what they see as President George W. Bush's radical reordering of American foreign policy.

'Man and Superman,' first performed in 1905, is by common consent one of George Bernard Shaw's greatest and most significant plays, yet hardly anybody performs it today, for the understandable reason that an uncut performance runs for about five hours.

We need some leadership in Washington to recognize the pending threat of PTSD to veterans and our country as a whole. George Bush doesn't talk about mental health and he doesn't talk about veterans. Veterans' issues are not a big priority for him.

We need a leader who can defeat George Bush in November in the general election, and we need a leader who we all know can walk into that Oval Office tomorrow afternoon and be a great president of the United States. That leader is John Kerry, and I'm proud to endorse him to be the president of the United States of America.

The accumulation of weapons of mass destruction by Iraq poses a threat, a threat not just to the region but to the wider world, and I think George Bush was absolutely right to raise it.

That will require the ( President George W. Bush administration) not to stay the course, but to change course, and to do it now.

That was a land grant that came from King George and it had the 'h' all over it,

That was one of the best days ever! ... This was two weeks before the film's general release and to see it at the theatre at Skywalker Sound with George and a host of other guests was amazing. George was as quiet and modest as ever so Rick McCallum gave us all a short introduction speech. By the end everyone was on his or her feet in ovation. Great stuff.

That's the second straight game he's been like that, and I have no answer for it. We just came out tonight with no intensity, and you can't do that against a team like George County.

I was obsessed with George Orwell for years. I remember going to the town library and having to put in interlibrary loan requests to get the compilation of his BBC radio pieces. I had to get everything he ever wrote.

I was around George about a half hour once and I knew right then I could do what he did and with less expense. the only thing that is holding me back is a signing bonus.

I would like to see Matt Dillon win, because he was excellent. When you first see him in the beginning you hate him, you think he's like every other bad cop. But then at some point you start caring about his character. But I'm thinking George Clooney might win this.

I would like to thank George Heller and his team for establishing a great foundation on which we can build a very promising future for HBC.

Most of the guys were watching the NCAA Tournament (with Connecticut losing to George Mason). It was weird for a while. We didn't know what would happen.

Most Americans want our troops home by the end of 2006. But that's far too late. Every minute that we wait, more blood is spilled. George Bush still continues his evil rhetoric that he is waging a war on terrorism, and he is really waging a war of terrorism against the world.

Most Americans do not appear to have been persuaded by President George W. Bush's ... argument that promoting democracy is a critical means for fighting terrorism and making the world safer.

Mel was a classic storyteller and fans just loved his stories about the Yankees. Mel made players like Joe DiMaggio, Yogi Berra and those great Yankee teams seem larger than life. He became just as famous in New York as any player, ... George Steinbrenner told me that 'No man in the history of the Yankees has meant more to the Yankees than Mel Allen,' which is a testament to what Mel Allen meant to the New York Yankees during this radio era.

will happily compare records with George W. Bush, and when you do, there is absolutely no comparison to be made.

Will George Bush be haunted by New Orleans to the last day of his presidency?

You know, I left the country when Reagan got in; I went to France. And when George Bush Jr. got in, my instincts told me it was time to go - I'd felt that we had grown above that, you know?

You can buy as much TV as you want in New Hampshire, and we'll certainly do our share, but there's no substitute for being up there. People really want a candidate who's going to talk about them, not about his opponents, not about George W. Bush. You'll see a lot of these conversations Clark is having are about them,

Who are these people? (To a tour guide at Monticello after seeing busts of George Washington and Ben Franklin)

Whitman led a move forward. She could have come to play a spoiler role, but she came to build relationships and bring the message that George Bush thinks that climate change is a serious problem.

Whiskey production became an important part of the history of George Washington's business activities at Mount Vernon when he built a successful distillery after he left the presidency.

When it comes to federal spending, George W. Bush is the boy who cant say no. In each of his three years at the helm, the president has warned Congress to restrain its spending appetites, but so far nobody has pushed away from the table mainly because the president doesnt seem to mean what he says.

We played George Mason last year; they played us to a very tough game out there.

We're a government of laws, not men. It is not for George W. Bush to disregard the Constitution and decide that he is above the law.

We have some people this year who bought a Fan Forward for George Mason. They may have bought ticket rights for $5, thinking that this was the year the stars were aligned in their favor. By purchasing this reservation early, they now have the chance to buy Final Four tickets to see their team at face value.

We are thrilled that Richard Edgar has decided to continue his academic and athletic career at George Mason. Richard is an outstanding person with impeccable credentials as both a person and a student athlete.

Well, we had a lot of messages, ... Mostly I was listening. You know former Secretary of State George Schultz once said listening is vastly underrated as a method of obtaining information, so I was following his advice today.

We have a George Foreman grill on the bus.

We've got some guys coming down to spring training --(Mario) Soto, (Tom) Browning and George Foster. We're trying to get a hold of Barry now. I think that's what we're trying to do, is get some of this tradition back, this winning culture that has been so long known with the Reds.

We've got our hands full early. George Mason is picked third in their league. Then Oklahoma State the next night is picked third or fourth behind outstanding teams (including defending national champ Texas) in the Big 12 and then South Alabama is picked to win their league.

We've made investments since Bruce has been on board, bringing in people like Gary, Bill and George and the productivity is showing itself. We've had a real mix of integrating the new with the old.
