Toronto Quotations | Page 3

I know they're upsetting a good part of the Toronto city council and I know they're upsetting the mayor, but frankly, I don't have any eloquent way to put it: We don't care, we need some sort of presence.

I moved to Edmonton in 1950. I left for a period of three years, 62. 63, 64 when I worked in Toronto and traveled around with the Leafs,

I'm just happy to be on the court and happy to be playing in Toronto again.

I'm excited about having the team over, ... I know there are a lot of Leafs fans in Sweden and in Europe, so this is a great chance for the European audience to watch the Toronto Maple Leafs. I think that's the most fun thing about this whole thing. We are going to focus on practicing and preparing for the season, just the same way we would if we were somewhere around Toronto. I'm sure we are going to have some chances at night to have some dinners and take a look around Stockholm, but most of the focus is going to be on practicing and getting ready.

I'm very pleased with this result. Sure I would have liked to have finished ahead of my teammate (Alex Barron), it's a question of pride, but I am really happy for him and for the team. We had a good weekend. Qualifying wasn't that great, but we got it back during the race. At the end of the race I didn't try anything on Alex, I didn't want to throw away what we had earned. Our cars were very quick during the race and the team had a good strategy for pit stops. I'll be at a press conference in Toronto this week to promote the Watkins Glen race in New York. After that I'll head home to Las Vegas.

I'm hopeful that Toronto will recognize their need to fill a certain dimension on their team and they'll be able to sign him.

If Vince Carter decides to leave the Toronto Raptors, this is an entirely different team. But I'm sure the Raptors wouldn't let Vince leave without getting something in return.

I just set my mind to go out there and play hard every day. Whatever happens, I think it'll be a plus for me. If I stay here, great. If I get a chance to play with another team, I'll play even harder there. To be honest, I've been with Toronto my whole career and it's a great organization.

In Toronto you could say we created our breaks; tonight you could say Ottawa created theirs. Our major problem was reading the rush. Their defensemen were beating our fourth and fifth guys into the zone all night long. We'll likely watch this tape ... and use it as a teaching tool for our group. They're a very good team. I don't think you'll learn too much from this tape watching our team.

In Toronto we created our breaks, and Ottawa created theirs with their speed. They don't need five or six opportunities to score a goal.

I think NHL teams and fans should know that if a $33.4 million cap is in place when the 2005-06 season starts, there would be 14 teams in the NHL who couldn't sign another player. Eleven teams would still lose money. The Toronto Maple Leafs, for the '05-06 season, would have $35.5 million and they would have nine players to play the games.

I just know we're ecstatic about the opportunity to come down with probably a younger group of guys than we had in Toronto and a great goaltender in Luongo. We feel we can make an impact and make the Florida Panthers a better hockey team.

I don't know how Toronto would be without Bell and Northern Telecom... those two stocks are helping to drive the market. If you look at New York...logically our market would be a little to the softer side.

Robert Rotenberg does for Toronto what Ian Rankin does for Edinburgh.

I love Toronto, It's the best city.

I'd say Toronto is the biggest disappointment only because they didn't prepare for this two years ago. I think they were among those teams that thought the new system would include a luxury tax, like baseball has, and they'd pay that and spend what they wanted. They never thought they'd be in a position where they couldn't just write checks and make everything OK.

I am well aware that the writers of New York, London, and Toronto are more readily noticed, though the shadowy and potent Ozarks Literary Cabal does what it can for me, then nightly joins me for dinner and calls me 'honey.'

I didn't realize Toronto was so beautiful. Everywhere you go you see beautiful architecture.

In a sense Toronto feels like home to me.

I got back from Toronto, where they had a severe outbreak of SARS- you know, Severe Asian Racism Syndrome.

Toronto will be the best Pan American Games ever. As PASO’s President, I have said several times that I want to end my leading period with a legacy of the best Games ever; and I am sure we will do it in Toronto.

I'm from Toronto. It's a lot more laid back. When you are thrust into different environments, there is an odd adaptation period. And then there are times when unfair, unkind, untrue things are written about you. That bothers me less now.

My label in Toronto was Stand Pat and I think that was a fair assessment. I tried to be patient, but if a trade came along - big or small - that I thought should be made, I would make it.

Me and Mr. Brainwash in Toronto signing his mural at Hard Candy Fitness Opening! #artforfreedom

The best part was the food. There are some great Italian restaurants we go to whenever we are in Toronto, so the eating was a definite highlight.

I teach students that what people say about failure in politics is mostly wrong. People always told me, 'They'll praise you on your way up and kick you on your way down.' That wasn't my experience. I can't walk down the street in Toronto without someone coming up and saying hello.

I remember listening to Cube's music when I was like 14 years old, my friends listening to it up in Toronto.

I went to the University of Toronto for a year, and I'm always trying to get across what university is really like.

I bought a house in LA, hanging out there and spending a lot of time in Toronto, but not much.

I used to go to Maple Leafs games all the time when Nic shot To Die For here in Toronto. This is a great city. I love it here.

Toronto is a very multicultural city, a place of immigrants, like my parents.

I remember when we were in rehearsals and we were going through it, because we rehearsed before we went to Toronto, and it's more of the same. She and I had to deal with a lot of stuff in this movie and we really have to take ourselves there. It actually started in rehearsals, and just revisiting that piece of it all. Just the way Monica is and what she says and the way she looks at me, it really affects me throughout rehearsals and throughout the scenes.

I was going to have Brian La Croix do a cameo on Degrassi. But, unfortunately, the scheduling didn't work out. When I was in Toronto, they weren't shooting. To me, that would've been a pretty crazy meta experience.

And when things are not going well in Toronto, you're going to hear about it. And you're going to say things are not good at all, where it's really not that bad.

With the fans and the Toronto Maple Leafs organization, the way I've been treated here has been awesome.

It's like so great to be in Toronto and to see everything that's in the books and everything they reference and to be able to hang out in those places and go to those bookstores and those comic book stores and those music stores, and like have that, from the books onto the screen, is so cool and I'm glad to have been part of that.

The nice thing about Toronto is there's not a competition.

I played the drums, and I was in a band called Funkasaurus Rex in Toronto. When I left for school, it became hard to play as frequently.

Have you ever heard the expression 'one hot mess?' I think the term was custom-made for the mayor of Toronto, Rob Ford.

The greatest time in my career was in Toronto with Tom Cheek and Jerry Howarth, ... They were both so nice to me, even when I was a kid struggling to get better with my English.

Toronto is home; nothing beats home.

Toronto is a kind of New York operated by the Swiss.

I like Toronto; the people are really chill.

I'll be vilified if I shoot a film in Toronto for New York. And rightfully so!

I've always been in love with that Delta-flavored music the music that came from Mississippi and Memphis and, especially, New Orleans. When I was 14, I was in a wanna-be New Orleans band in Toronto.

Indeed I have always found that the only thing in regard to Toronto which faraway people know for certain is that McGill University is in it.

I had spent years working in radio at different stations in Toronto; I wasn't in the stage company of Second City.

I love that Toronto is demonstrating that a big, highly diverse, multicultural city can actually work and work well, if its residents have the attitude of Torontonians.

In Toronto, Serena Williams was not fit at all, not striking the ball well at all, and went three sets with someone (ranked) 92 in the world,

I love Toronto, I have spent a lot of time up there working. There's a lot of stuff going on there.

(Canada) - the most parochial nationette on earth ... I have been living in this sanctimonious icebox ... painting portraits of the opulent Methodists of Toronto. Methodism and money in this city have produced a sort of hell of dullness.

look, you know i don't wanna come on ungrateful, but that warren report, you know as well as me, just didn't make it. You know, like they might as well have asked some banana salesman from des moines, who was up in toronto on the big day, if he saw anyone around looking suspicious/...

If you're going to do a movie about the Village, it's pretty nice to shoot in the village and not be in Toronto.
