'Slang' was a really stripped-down, live-sounding record. But this time, we wanted to return to our sort of sound, because the climate in the industry was warming up to it, ... We put on 'Hysteria' and 'Pyromania' and took our sonic cues from those albums. |
(Delhomme) knew it was a mistake. Sometimes you don't have to be reminded right away, especially from a teammate. Jake's a fiery guy and it makes him the kind of player he is. ... I just want to settle him down so he didn't throw any more passes like that. |
(Kronwall) was trying to get out of the way. I don't think he saw me coming, and then at the last second, he tried to duck. Sometimes when you do that, you can catch an edge. You never want to hurt anybody out there. You don't want to see guys limping off. |
(The yen) is still in a state of confusion and it's reflecting itself in its price patterns. The market is really unclear as to where to go right here. There are concerns about inflationary fears and that is explaining why the currency is narrowly trading. |
[All of the honorees appeared clearly moved by their selection.] We're still adjusting to life after playing. ... How fortunate I am to be here. The Hall of Fame is so far beyond anything you could dream about. I feel like the luckiest player in the world. |
[As for Venus, she is making sure that everyone knows just how tough Serena is to beat.] I think she's playing good, ... It doesn't matter how Serena is playing because her competitive spirit is so high. You have to go to the ends of the earth to beat her. |
[At the evening session] he is going to share a little more in depth about his own relationships and share about his own life. He'll also be talking more about his own faith and the faith behind his decisions which he won't be able to do in the schools. |
[Being a U.S. senator] is more than just casting votes on the issues you are presented with, ... It's about coming up with new ideas, it's about leadership, it's about persuasion. It's about getting 51 votes on initiatives that are going to solve problems. |
[Best reason the Tide will go unbeaten: Defense. Alabama has scored one touchdown in two games and won both of them. Jamie Christensen settled each with late field goals.] I really don't believe in luck, ... It's destiny. It's our destiny to go undefeated. |
[Committee Chairman Arlen Specter (R-Pa.) says senators are free to ask any question they like, and the nominee is free to answer fully, partially or not at all.] Nominees, ... tend to answer just as many questions as they have to in order to be confirmed. |
[Consumer banking experts don't expect that to be a concern with the marriage of J.P. Morgan Chase and Bank One.] There's very little geographic overlap in these two institutions, ... The only area where they both have significant market share is in Texas. |
[Czech team officials] told me they needed to know, that I needed to make a decision that day. I was sore and wasn't even thinking about playing. After five to six days now, I know I made the right decision. It's still sore and I wouldn't have been a help. |
[Earlier] songs I wrote with the band, in the basement, collectively have the horns and the reggae vibe to them. These songs, I went and wrote, like, SONG-songs. Now, I'm writing again, and I'm back to the reggae stuff. It was really like a moment in time. |
[Even the warhorses have been exercised. Five years ago, McKenzie came out with a new staging of Swan Lake that] whipped the audience at the Metropolitan Opera House into a frenzied ovation, ... a ballet for both the tired critic and the tired businessman. |
