Sandra Ford Quotations

Poor, miserable old bat. What he ought to be saying is how nice it is to have women around the office. He's never seen the point of women in positions of seniority. There's no hope for him.

I am really proud of the girls. They fought hard. We came out ready to play. We made several mental errors in the third and fourth games, but we never quit. We left everything on the court.

We try to put as much pressure on the ball as possible. That frustrates the other team and opens up chances for us (on the counterattack).

We made some mental errors at key times. Kim Anderson has done a great job filling in for Sarah.

Our recent engagement with the union has been conducted in a constructive and open atmosphere, and I look forward to this continuing.

We're always asking each other to borrow stuff.

We're very pushed to have our grades on target so we can play. We have to make sure all our homework is done.

We have a stronger shoulder. We have a really fitted waist. We have a very accentuated chest, ... The bra is actually the accessory of the season. Every look has got a bra -- and those bras, they're not sort of subtle.

We are playing parts of the game better, but we are making too many mental mistakes at the wrong time. We can't seem to put a team away. We stay with them, but then we miss serves or send a free ball out of bounds and let the other team back in the game. We have got to be mentally tough.

Tonight was not a good night. We need to work on our passing. The girls are not playing with confidence.

It is men who face the biggest problems in the future, adjusting to their new and complicated role.

Let's face it, there are no plain women on television.

The world men inhabit is rather bleak. It is a world full of doubt and confusion, where vulnerability must be hidden, not shared; where competition, not co-operation, is the order of the day; where men sacrifice the possibility of knowing their own children and sharing in their upbringing, for the sake of a job they may have chosen by chance, which may not suit them and which in many cases dominates their lives to the exclusion of much else.

Teddy Roosevelt . . . once said, 'Speak softly and carry a big stick.' Jimmy Carter wants to speak loudly and carry a fly swatter.

This district has more grants than districts three times its size,

It totally changes your walk. It's a different kind of sexy when you have on a lower heel, and I start always with the shoe.

The idea was to kick-start the process, make it sustainable and then re-invest our resources elsewhere. As a private NGO our job is to go in, tackle an acute need and advocate that those properly responsible take over.

The girls never gave up. Even when they were down 19-13 in the third game, they stepped up and finished.
