John Jackson Quotations

The real battle is being played out on the profitability front, the efficiency front, and the intellectual property front. Increasingly it's not going to be sufficient to simply put out whiz bang devices. You need to have a broader solution-oriented approach to serving the market, whether it's organic or partnership driven.

She was my heart, man; she was my wife. She brought six kids into the world for me.

My escapism is far less important than for those I am helping to escape -- the troops. If it gives them an evening of some fun and laughter, the rewards for myself, PHINdy and all the others will be beyond description.

Perry went from 270 to 300-plus from junior to senior season. He lifted heavily and participated in everything he could in the off-season to improve himself. He was a good team player in that regard. He was a fixture in our weight room. He went to some camps, too. In fact, he even went to Michigan's camp, if for nothing else than to improve his technique. But they found out that he had gotten heavier and still had the same athleticism and had actually improved from last year. That impressed them.

If they didn't want the product or they didn't have the money, than they should just say (so).

I can't explain it. I look at it as an aberration, and I don't think it will last.

For Qualcomm this has the potential to be a bit of an identity crisis,

He got into some hot water but I think his critics made much more about that than was warranted, ... I don't think it was a major issue and he maybe overstated his case and apologized. He caught enormous heat because there is an enormous propaganda machine out there always ready to grind. And he got ground up in it.

He differs from the two Pauls in the sense that he is a nuts-and-bolts Senate insider ... in a way that Paul Douglas or Paul Simon never was.

Jon knows and I know he can make plays, and he knows his compadres can, too.

It certainly goes along with the leadership position to be a critic of the governing party; the term we use is the 'loyal opposition' and the loyal opposition while being loyal also opposes, ... That's why we want a minority party to speak out.

I think you can argue it's a problem for both parties, and with the whole system. Each party will take it and try to run with it. It hurts politics in Illinois.

It is obviously unfortunate that the Law Lords could not find in our favor, for technical legal reasons,

It is just beyond words how everyone felt to have our 30 year reunion in California, much less on a television show. It just leaves you in awe to see how everything is done.

I think they share a great deal of characteristics, ... They both are products of Southern Illinois, they both started in state government and they both supported each other in their careers. I think the biggest difference is that Paul Simon never got tagged with the level of partisanship that Durbin has been tagged with since he took the leadership role. And that leadership role entails getting yourself into trouble occasionally.

It feels great. It feels like we can put this to bed. It was a relief, I guess, more than anything.

I think RIM is facing the most critical time in its corporate history for those two reasons. Are they vulnerable? Yes.

It doesn't have the emotive cachet that the Razr or the iPod has. When you whip this out in the bar, nobody's going to say, 'That's a cool device.

When I jog, I go out to Rabbits Stadium, plus I go that way when I go to work. Every time I see that sign I will think of Ellen and about how gracious she was to something like that for the school district. When you get down to the brass tacks of the situation, she didn't have to do anything like this but she is just a class act and a genuine person.

Thus far, operators have taken a portal-centric approach to delivering an online experience to mobile phone users. They provide a finite set of services to users.

It would have been a bigger deal if they hadn't done it. It's a must-have.

The vision is impressive, the notion of extending information to everyday objects. But perhaps it is a bit too forward thinking.

Protecting voting rights is going to depend on the absentee ballot process. The state has the burden of showing that they have accurate information for locating them. We don't want to have those ballots go out and have them never connect with individuals.

The NAACP will consider filing a lawsuit, or joining existing parties seeking court relief, to protect the voting rights of black voters. The NAACP favors out-of-state satellite voting sites and charges the state to meet the burden of making sure that African American voters receive accurate voter information.

After a little over two years in development, we are extremely excited to finally release this gallery to the eBay marketplace. We went through great lengths to make this gallery fully automatic for users. Essentially all a customer has to do is sign up, set their custom cross-promotion preferences, and our gallery does the rest.

The universe is going to become a de facto Swiss Army Knife.

At least on the news what you're hearing, there's flooding, there's this, that and the other thing . You know it could flood but it doesn't seem like it's doing much damage at this point.

It?s a huge problem in the state and the rest of the country.

It's a highly lucrative market that is widely perceived as being under-addressed.

It?s the contractors who are ultimately at fault because they are creating a situation where the only way a person is able to go to work is if they agree to go in the books as an independent.

It's a very logical addition to the digital camera.

It usually doesn't come down to this and I think that's what's frustrating.

In Burton, we've always had a strong champion. I'm puzzled by the calls for his resignation.

If you're an IT manager, you scare easily. You can't afford to not have your bases covered.

I had a good time helping out a great cause.

Heading into the playoffs, the Bulls' defense received well-deserved raves. But in the first two games of the first-round series with the Miami Heat, the Bulls' defense experienced about as much success as an ice cube in the South Florida sun.

The hallmark (of Nokia's designs) has been consistency.
