Wore Quotations | Page 3

I was a kid when Dean came out. Dean was the inspiration. Even the red jacket he wore in 'Rebel Without a Cause,' you saw that red jacket popping up all over the place. He really reached people in a way; it was kind of a phenomenon when you think of it. I wonder what it would be like today, that kind of a person ... he made that connection with his audience. And I remember at that time my mother loved him. He reached everybody.

It is phenomenal. When we first started, it was just me and three employees. We all wore many hats.

I thought we did a nice job in the first half of slowing the tempo down. I thought defensively we did some nice things, and we kept them off the boards early. Obviously, they are so strong, they just got away from us and wore us down.

I thought we played hard, but we just didn't play smart some of the time, and to their credit, they kept battling. They played with a lot of heart, and they just kind of wore us down. We're not offensive linemen. We're more like wide receivers. Duluth has some offensive linemen.

I thought we got out and ran the floor early and kinda wore them down.

I thought we got better as the game wore on. When you're killing back-to-back-to-back penalties, it's hard to get momentum. That's living dangerously. You can't expect a team at home to go 0-for-9 again.

I thought we got better as the game wore on. I think the concern is you don't want to waste a great performance by a goalie. You need your goalie to win those games.

I thought the key to the game was rebounding. I think we wore them down as well.

I thought the first half was the worst we've played all year. In the second half, we made some adjustments and our special players made some special plays. We really wore them down in the second half by pressuring more. This team can play with anybody. We just have to bring it all 90 minutes.

I think we finally wore them down. They didn't have any more players to play.

I thought our kids played a great half of basketball. Eventually their size and depth just wore us down.

I thought our kids kept fighting and I think our size up front kind of wore on them. I think us going no huddle was something that they didn't expect too much. We hadn't done too much of it in the past but it's something we're doing this year and we tried to give them something they hadn't seen.

I thought our depth eventually wore on them.

I thought our defense really wore them down and forced them into some bad shots. We've been known to make some steals, but tonight we capitalized and finished them.

I think we wore them out. We tried pressing them the whole first half. We knew they had great shooters and sometimes shooters come up short when they get tired.

I think we wore them down with our depth.

I think we wore them down. But MSJ played well. They're a much stronger team than people thought they were.

I think we wore down. It was stupid to try that dunk. I regret it. But we played hard and we'll share the title, I guess.

I think we wore down a bit. It's tough to bang, rebound, defend and score. It took its toll on us. Plus, TJ stepped their game up.

I think we were too emotional to start the game. We got that big lead more on emotion than substance. And once the emotion wore off, we struggled.

I think we showed our true colors today. As the game wore on, we played more confidently, and played up to the end.

I think as the game wore on, Davis started seeing that they were in it and they got stronger and stronger. And the pressure on our team got stronger and stronger and we weren't able to deal with it.

I think they wore us down. We were struggling getting into our half-court offense.

it is not the one I wore onstage during the 'Baby One More Time' performance.'

Last year I wore one for four weeks when I played for my old team in Sweden. Everyone born there later than 1965 has to wear one. It's tough when you're not used to one.

I went to all the games back then, and C.M. didn't wear red sports coats. And that's not why Mark wore one, either.

I went to school at a school that doesn't exist anymore. It was called the Walden School, so you can guess a lot of things from it by the name, right? We were allowed to smoke in the classroom. We all wore blue jeans and sandals.

Jasper is a little bit more multidimensional this year. That came from the fact that they got the fullback involved, having split backs and being able to cross things up a little bit. And I thought they really wore us down from the second quarter on.

I remember when I was growing up, I always wore glasses and so if I was on-stage or just being able to move around playing sports, I was never really able to because I had glasses holding me back. Wearing contacts has just been very helpful.

Our kids came out with a lot of intensity (after halftime). We played a little more physical defense and it might have wore on them.

Our press wore them down in the third quarter.

Robert did a great job. Robert's a big body and he moves well. He stayed in front of him and he maybe wore him down a little bit. Robert just came in for six or seven minutes and gave it 100 percent and was able to deny him the ball and get his big body on him.

Remember when Japan was cool? We used to run around with 'Mr. Roboto' on our Walkmans, 'The Karate Kid' in our Betamaxes and wore T-shirts embossed with the characters for 'storm sewer' and 'dishwasher.'

Play Trivial Pursuit with me, and you'll be astonished. I can remember every outfit I wore to every party going back to 1983.

Playing catcher wore me out last year. I wouldn't mind still playing, but as long as I'm in the lineup and helping the team.

Our offensive line wore them down and we just ran over them.

Stay focused. Make sure that the Caps that you wore this year can fit you next year. Make sure that the heads don't get too large. This is one of the problems that we have in our cricket, when you taste success it goes straight to the head and you don't keep a very steady head on your shoulders.

Nan Kempner wore one of the first Saint Laurent trouser suits to one of those fancy Madison Avenue restaurants and was denied access. She famously took off her pants and walked in wearing only the jacket. And it was that kind of revolution that was echoed in fashion and in life.

My main lucky number is 9. That was my baseball number in high school. My other lucky number is 3, because that's the one I wore before I got to high school and had to pick a different one.

Matt gave everything he had. He just wore out at the end. Garrett had to play the whole game both ways. We just didn't have quite enough horsepower to beat them.

I wore glasses my whole life, but then I got Lasik eyeball surgery, and I fixed that.

I wore black all game and just changed to an old one at the end. I'm superstitious more about not being superstitious.

I wore white kabuki makeup, had blue-black hair. At one point, I shaved an inch and a half around my hairline and continued the white makeup up so it made my head look slightly deformed. I thought it was hilarious.

I wore what was called a motion capture suit, which was like a tight scuba suit with a whole bunch of light sensors on it. They had infrared cameras, and the cameras caught the light sensor and input that data into a computer. And that data was my movement and how the light sensors moved and how they captured the data onto the computer. It was really quite fascinating. I had never done any of that before.

I wore what I normally would wear at a regular game. It wasn't too bad. I thought the weather was perfect. It couldn't have been any better.

I wore visors when they were in vogue -- and I wasn't so thin on top.

I wore the tie to identify with the pain of the uprooted,

I wore sarongs the whole time I was there because the scars are so bad,

I wore ripped jeans and headbands before people wore that. I've been this guy ever since.

I wore No. 4 at Cal. Obviously, I didn't have a chance when I came here.

I wore miniskirts in the days when no fat girls should have, and with total delight.

I wore it longer than I should have.

I think our pressure wore on them. We tried to put pressure on the perimeter and make it tough to get it to (Johnson). Then we fronted him and came with a double-team.

I think our numbers wore them down. We subbed liberally and kept fresh feet out there. I think that helped.

I still have a leather jacket my brother wore in the '60s. It doesn't fit me, but I figure maybe it'll fit my daughter.

I think Glenn might have been an obstacle. He wore his emotions on his sleeve.

I think it wore him down a little having to guard me. I was trying to run off screens a lot in the second half and just make him tired.

I thought he looked quite good in his flight suit landing on the aircraft carrier. He looked very natural, like he wore it everyday. It was like seeing Dick Cheney in a hospital gown. It looked like the most normal thing in the world.

It is defense. Everyone is playing defense. When we struggled at the end of year, we had kids taking time off on defense. They were punching out instead of punching in. That was the big difference (Monday), and in the first-round game. We wore Sacred Heart down. In the second quarter, they didn't score a basket.

I think this team wore us down with their size, especially in the second half. We had a period when we got some open looked and missed it. That is when they took the lead and never relinquished it. It says a lot about our guys when a team that size has to play zone against us.

That was the big thing. We wore them down a little bit. We put together some nice drives.

That wore me out more than the rest of the day. Tomorrow, it's back to the lesson plans and chalk flying.

That was a great match for Kevin. He was able to keep the pressure on Peek and wore him down in the third period. Kevin was tenacious on his feet.

That was my number growing up, No. 5, in baseball and football. He was my favorite player; I wore it because of him. He grew up about 30 minutes from where I grew up.

That's the number I wore in Japan, so I'm wearing it now.

I was on one of the best character teams in the NBA when I played for the San Antonio Spurs and we wore whatever we wanted to the game.

I was big time into Barbie. I also had Wonder Woman Underoos that I really liked. I actually wore them as an outfit to school. As I said, I was a strange child.

Mickey Mantle wore it, ... I just enjoy it.

Who I was was not acceptable to black L.A. youth: the way I spoke and my sense of humor. Everybody else had relaxers and pressed hair. I wore my hair in an Afro puff. Nappy. The way I dressed. It was all about name brands at the time in L.A. I had no idea. All those things, I failed miserably at.

You knew by looking at what they were wearing what their characters were. Betty always wore some kind of a shirt-dress with little buttons, and Rue, of course, wore these things that were such outlandishly bad taste.

White is very popular in Italy, and the U.S. wore it in '56.

We were motivated and started off well, but we just wore down. They were just too strong for us today.

We do what we do best. We pressed and wore 'em down and started pounding the ball inside.

Yesterday wore him out. I think the thing that wore him out was talking to so many people.

We dug a hole early. We missed a lot of shots early and didn't shoot very well from the line. We had to fight our way out of a hole, and you get wore out from the fight.

We really started out worrying about it. And as the game wore along, we said, 'Look, the coverage is great. They're not going to beat us scrambling. He'll get whatever he'll get, get on the ground, and we'll go on and play.

We got beat by a better team tonight. (That rally) took a lot out of us. You get down like that and make a run, it takes a lot out of you. They wore us down in the second half.

We caught up to them, but it took its toll. The kids worked really hard, but I think their press wore us down a little bit.

We played very hard defense all game. I think we just wore them down. We pressed the entire game and I think they just got tired.

We had to pull out all the stops. That kid at quarterback was elusive. We brought the house. We blitzed and tried to cover on the back end. We forced him to get rid of the ball. We pretty much wore him down.

We have a lot of guys that can run and I think we just wore them down in the second half. That could have something to do with the final score. But I think that is another thing that makes us a very good team.

We just didn't make plays. I don't feel wore down. I'm just mad right now.

We just didn't handle the ball well in spots tonight. Their pressure wore on us. They come at you and they're quick. If you lose your concentration at all you're in trouble.

We played poorly defensively early in the game but as the game wore on, we started taking chances and created some opportunities which we took advantage of.

You know we're going to throw the ball, but coach 'Hawk' wants to get a guy ready who can run it 20-25 times (a game). It's my responsibility to get Charles and Ellis ready and find a No. 3. Hugh wore down at the end of last season, Byron had shoulder problems and we didn't have a No. 3.

You know, her freshman year she was such a tomboy. She wore boys' clothes and she also played like a boy ever since I knew her. Now she's wearing skirts and scarves, but she still plays 100 percent like a boy.

When I first met Mick he wore jeans and those Seventies ribbed, tight T-shirts, and I absolutely loved that look. Nobody looks better in jeans than Mick because he's got this amazing body with a very slim, long waist and a bit V-shaped chest and I thought that was just the cutest. That's when I fell in love with him. Then in the Eighties he started wearing trousers and badly cut tweed suits, big shirts in orange and brown. Ugh! Clothes that he wore for about 20 years. But now he's started wearing jeans again and he looks great I saw him the other day and I thought, 'thank God'.

When I joined the Giants I wore No. 89 and had it for a couple of years. But I didn't like it. I didn't feel comfortable in it and I wanted to get out of it. You get a number that you feel comfortable with and it's like a good pair of shoes.

We got to take a look at a bunch of kids. Even in the second half there wasn't a whole lot of pressure on us. We just wore them out.

We got too fast. We wanted to run if we had a chance like in the first quarter. We had talked about if (they) were ahead of us to slow it down and get in a set offense and we never really did do that. The pace got so fast we kind of wore ourselves out.

The problem is, we fear negative consequences a lot more than we value positive ones. What happens to an athlete is that if he wore a particular sock, or pair of shirts, or did some ritual, and had success, he'll continue to do that. That act reduces the anxiety associated with not doing it. It's the exact same mechanism, clinically, we find in obsessive-compulsive people.

We did what we had to do to win. We knew we had the numbers game, so we pounded on them and wore them down.

We played with them for about a quarter and a half, but they were physically bigger and stronger than us. They wore us down and we didn't help things by dropping about 10 passes.

When I go to bed at night, I wear a sleeping bag. And for a long time, I wore mittens so that I couldn't open the sleeping bag.

When at my heaviest, I wore 48-inch waist pants. I bought 32-inch slacks I'm planning on wearing this weekend at my son's graduation with the Marines.

We battled the entire game. Even when we got behind, we didn't quit. We kept battling back and eventually wore them out.

We actually have been toying around with a theatrical element. We even had outfits that we wore on stage for the last tour. But I think when people come to see us they ultimately expect a rock show, so we're pulling back on that aspect a bit. We do play in front of a backdrop, though.

We definitely had some of the best runners at the meet. But we wore our kids out because they participated in so many events and the other schools had more athletes to choose from. I am proud of how all of them did in the meet.
