Ten Quotations | Page 3

Now you mustn't think that I don't have any ideas for novels in my head. I've got ideas for ten novels in my head. But with every idea I have, I already foresee the wrong novels I would write, because I also have critical ideas in my head; I've got a full theory of the perfect novel, and that's what stumps me.

I'm very proud of all my children. They all have Christian families; they read the Bible; they pray; the kids go to Sunday school; they know the Ten Commandments by heart. That's my greatest honor, and I couldn't do anything to glorify God that could surpass that. That's very meaningful.

You can tell if you're going to be into a script within the first five or ten pages - if I'm not completely engaged by page 20, I just have to give up on it.

I can't imagine childhood without 'Planet of the Apes.' I was nine or ten when the first one came out.

Ten bajillion product ads notwithstanding, your looks are another thing that's basically genetic.

'Unforgiven' is probably an example of a script that I liked right away but thought, 'This is great, but I'd like to do this when I'm older.' So I stuck it in the drawer for ten years and then took it out.

The Pentagon talks about our power to 'overkill' Russia ten times, twenty times, perhaps forty-eight times. For my tax money, it is sufficient to overkill them once.

We've all been saying it and that's what we want to do. Everybody in the locker room, the coaches, coach, everyone, we all have the same goal and that's to find a way to finish strong in the Big Ten and still get in the NCAA Tournament.

We are at the turn, we are halfway around the track. It's just about respecting Michigan State and approaching like we have the other seven (Big Ten games).

We had two innings in a row where they didn't even hit the ball. Three up, three down. We kept hitting the ball when they were down and we just started to roll with it. We ended up ten run-ruling them.

With the incredible 'Friends' television series and DVD phenomenon, many people have watched episodes countless times and have become experts, so it was natural to create an accessible and exciting videogame that could challenge their knowledge, ...

Through and through the Big Ten is a battle every game. We were a step away from the NCAA tournament last year and that's part of the reason we put a challenging schedule together for 2006. We'll have to show up every day, wire to wire. This could be our toughest schedule ever.

We know we can put on a good show. When you go to Chicago, you hardly know what's going on. It's just a huge city. Here, the Big Ten takes over the city. We played on that notion.

Wow, I don't even know what to say. Those final ten laps were the hardest in my life. The race reminded me a lot of 2002 when I won my second Indianapolis 500 -- to be able to win the first time in a touring car is just an amazing feeling. I'm so fortunate to have had this opportunity and to have been able to compete with three wonderful drivers. We had a great team and a fantastic car. I just consider myself lucky to have been in the right place at the right time.

When four of ten CEOs (40 per cent) believe that there could be a major economic downturn in the next two years, might be the proverbial canary in the mine. The strength of the Canadian dollar and its impact on manufacturing and exports plus the ascendancy of China and India as major global economic players may be putting a degree of caution into the air in what has been to date a robust outlook. Time will tell.

We want to show people we're the best team in the conference. We want to win the Big Ten Tournament and show that maybe we did deserve a little bit of the Big Ten title.

We did everything tonight but win on the scoreboard. I think we dominated a large portion of the game, so you know we gave up a bad goal in the beginning. We have to put ourselves in a better position where we have to defend a lead in the last ten minutes rather than try to come back.

What we now know is that a rebuilding kick is going to be spread out -- pick a time -- five years, maybe even ten years. We are not going to get the usual quick economic impact.

We're anxious to get into Big Ten play. I think the Big Ten is going to be a very, very tough conference this year. As you look at everybody from side to side and throughout the conference, they've had some tough ball games, they've had some great wins. I just think it's going to be a very strong league, and we start out with an awfully strong one with the university of Iowa. They're a physical football team. They have dropped a game, but they didn't have their quarterback that day. They're just an outstanding team as they've shown over the years, and we have to be ready to compete.

We're always talking about the Big Ten title. We're going to try to bring it back. It would be very special to do that with what I think is the toughest schedule in history.

When I hear people express extreme optimism about the Internet, I say, we've had it in mature form for about ten years. Macroeconomically speaking, those are about the worst 10 years we've had since about the 1930s. I don't blame the Internet for that - that would be ridiculous.

Scott and Rob (Hummel) realize that if they want to play Big Ten basketball, they can't stay where they are.
