I try not to worry about that stuff too much because you can't get caught up in that award show deal because then you start saying, 'Well, what does win awards? Maybe I should write (like) that' and that gets a little dangerous, ... Maybe the show is a little too controversial. |
I turned the house into a studio and invited over a bunch of sailors, who were actually students I'd met at USC. They were studying cinema to become technical cameramen. They weren't real sailors picked up off the street, but they were very happy to play these roles in my film. |
I usually tell people 'low and slow,' meaning to add weight to their lines so they stay low in the streams and move more slowly in swift waters. That's my advice for how they're going to catch fish in high-moving waters. This year, low and slow definitely describes the streams. |
I want anyone to feel comfortable. That's why I have underwear in packages because some guys are literally embarrassed. They're timid. They don't have the personality to grab a pair of underwear and say, 'That's hot.' Some men do not want anything but cotton next to their body. |
I want Cuba to win [the World Baseball Classic]. I know some people associate the worst things in the world with Cuba but I support the baseball team, the players and my friends. ... I'm Cuban and I love my country and the people, but I can't play with them because of politics. |
I want strikes. No matter how hard you throw, you are not going to get people out if you are behind hitters. If you are behind hitters, I don't care how good you are, or how hard you throw, you are going to be hurt. I expect him to throw more strikes and attack the strike zone. |
I want to give the small businesses and local merchants better business strategies by teaching their workers how to improve customer service and promote a positive image in the workplace. By having the luncheon business owners and their employees won't lose a whole day of work. |
I wanted to take the crowd out of the game. This was a no-huddle offense, but this was not a hurry-up offense. They're two different things. This was so that I didn't have to have guys not hear the play in the huddle. It was just so that we could take the noise out of the game. |
I was a little surprised. But I understand my role on this team. I extend the defense and allow guys like David West room to operate down low and Chris Paul and Speedy Claxton to penetrate. When they get you open looks, it's up to me to knock shots down, and tonight I hit them. |
I was against the defending champion having to qualify, but we need to thank FIFA for changing the rules. We would have immense difficulties if we hadn't played the qualifiers. It allowed our players to play in a competitive situation, similar to what they will find in the Cup. |
I was barely in my teens, living in Greece where my dad, an officer in the U.S. Navy, was stationed. He took me and my four brothers and sisters to this ancient theater at the foot of the Parthenon, and we saw this amazing Greek drama. He tried to make it a learning experience. |
I was behind in the count too much. Today was a tough game. I wasn't hitting spots good. I missed a lot of pitches and missed spots a lot of times. When you do that, you have to come right down the middle. That's why they hit the ball good today, because I was missing my spots. |
I was hoping to get wins early because I knew it would get harder later. Then we lost the first two. I think the team did a pretty good job. Our biggest fear was the health of our team, and we got banged up. That's fairly typical when you play that many games in that many days. |
I was kind of foggy for the first four or five innings, then I really started to get into the game. It's not like I was out there spaced out. But we had gone through a lot of high intensity and mental exhaustion the last few games, and sometimes it can be tough to get it going. |
I was kind of running my own race. I'd catch Brian and lose him, but he got loose in 10 and lost momentum, and I just was able to capitalize. I stuck to the outside because he was trying to block. I thought he was running out of gas. I just kept my line, and that's all it took. |
