-
Along Quotes
New Orleans - along with San Francisco - is the greatest collection of 18th-, 19th- and early-20th-century residential architecture in the United States. You're talking about miles and miles of historic properties. But saving the historic context does not mean necessarily rebuilding everything in it. I don't think you build a bad 21st-century copy of a brilliant 19th-century building.

Best Quotes
Right now, everyone's going to predict different teams and they should. San Antonio, Miami, those teams on paper have guys stronger. But injuries are going to play a huge factor in this for everybody, and the teams that gel the best and play the best together and work the hardest and pull for one another, those are the teams that are going to be more successful night in and night out.
-
America Quotes
Pop culture knowledge is kind of like the new social currency for America. If you ask most people who the mayor of San Francisco is, they won't know. But if you ask them what the 'San Francisco treat' is, 99 percent of them will know it. We are a culture that loves things that are unimportant.
-
Conference Quotes
Nick is so hungry for a championship. I remember when we lost to San Antonio in the Western Conference finals. I had never really seen Nick that emotional. All he had on his mind was trying to get back ... trying to get back. I think that's why when that trade happened he took it so hard.

Flew Quotes
One of the first places that they flew me to after the hurricane was San Antonio. I was separated from my wife, and I was looking for her. It just so happened that my stepson and my grandson were in the same place getting their medicine. And they were looking for me and told me that my wife was in Plano, safe.
-
Collecting Quotes
I was at Linux World in San Jose, Calif., and there were dozens of kids -- 11, 12, 13 years old -- collecting all this literature and looking at the demos. In two or three years, when all these kids are coming out of college and high school, the number of people who are able to do Linux development are going to overwhelm the number of people who are doing Unix and NT development simply because of that.
-
Brother Quotes
I grew up in San Diego in a non-athletic environment. My parents were not interested in sports. Their loves were art, literature and music. I gravitated towards sports because of my older brother Bruce and the first coach I ever had, who, like John Wooden, made it fun and really emphasized the joy of playing the team game.
-
Chance Quotes
If we have a chance to upgrade, we're going to have to do it, ... This roster's going to have to be much stronger one through 25. Hopefully we have some credibility from our past, but our present isn't too attractive. I hope they still want to come to San Francisco and understand this is a one-year step back.
-
Absolutely Quotes
I go up to San Francisco on holidays and spend time with my family there, but whenever I go to Japan, I enjoy every moment. I try to go back there every year or so. It's a phenomenal place, and I absolutely love it. It's not my second home; it is my home. Whenever I go back, I feel very connected with Japan.
-
Again Quotes
If they think prices are going to take off again like they did in 2004, they're in for a long wait. That ain't gonna happen. The status of our market is not so dependent on what goes on in Las Vegas this year, but it's dependent on what goes on in California. We've already seen markets over there hit the wall in San Diego and Orange County and other places, too.
-
Advantage Quotes
I have been working very closely with Brandon and his family and it is with our blessing that he has put his name into the draft. Brandon will be able to take advantage and benefit from the rule and find out where he stands in the eyes of NBA coaches and general managers, while still maintaining the option of returning to San Diego State. We will continue to work closely with Brandon and if he is a first round pick, we will advise him to go. We are extremely proud of what Brandon has done for himself, for the University and San Diego State basketball, both on the court and in the classroom.
-
Angeles Quotes
I'd like to be back (next year) but I'm more focused on what we have to do to win these next three games, and when those games are over we can focus in on what can we do to make this team and this franchise better no matter where we're located, whether it's San Antonio or New Orleans or Los Angeles or whatever they decide to do with us.
-
Additional Quotes
I'd like to thank Alex and Brian Lawton for notifying us of Alex's decision prior to the arbitration hearing tomorrow in Toronto. This was not unexpected and I respect Alex for making this family decision. This creates the opportunity for additional ice time for players like Marco Sturm, Niko Dimitrakos and Milan Michalek. If and when Alex decides to return to the National Hockey League, we look forward to him playing for the San Jose Sharks.
-
Believe Quotes
I believe this win means a great deal to our team, the Gulf Coast and the people of New Orleans. A number of players have visited (Hurricane Katrina) evacuees in San Antonio and they're really excited to follow the Saints this year. They have communicated that to us that they better we do, they better they will feel.
-
Brought Quotes
I have all the respect in the world for Rodney Harrison. I told him that when we brought him here, and he's made great contributions to this team. There's no question about it. Unfortunately, he had a tough setback last weekend and so did the team, but that's the way it is. We're playing San Diego this week. Unfortunately, he won't be with us. I wish he was, but he's not.
-
Appreciation Quotes
I felt I didn't want to let the city down. That's the feeling that you have out there, the appreciation of the standing ovation and the cheers, and praying you don't let them (fans) down. You want to put on a good performance for them and bring that whole atmosphere back here in San Francisco, and get everybody excited.
-
Across Quotes
I don't think we should panic. There were a lot of new guys out there for the first time. It's a complete team effort when you're out there on that kickoff, and if one guy gets out of his lane or doesn't get across the guy's face, it can wipe out a whole side. And it happened on one kickoff (against San Diego).
-
City Quotes
I expect these games to be televised nationally and it could make me not only proud of our football team, but it would also make the (San Antonio) mayor proud to show what kind of great city you have here in San Antonio. This effort and this schedule will help rebuild Louisiana and the Gulf South.
-
Anytime Quotes
I get star-struck anytime I meet performers that I grew up watching and appreciating. I mean, it's still incredibly surreal to me that I was a kid in San Antonio watching movies and then now I'm working with some of the people that were in those movies. I don't think it'll ever stop being surreal on some level.
-
Bar Quotes
I get so excited when I see these writers because they're extraordinary, award-winning writers that are here. To gather them and put them in one forum could only raise the bar and make San Antonio known for something memorable like literature instead of the stories that dominate San Antonio.

Bad Quotes
He had good range, ... much farther than a smaller person like him should have had. Because he wasn't as big as most players, he had to learn more about the game, too. He always seemed to make the right pass and never seemed to take a bad shot. And I'll tell you, he was a god in San Francisco's Chinatown.
