Captain or colonel or gezegde

 Captain, or colonel, or knight in arms.
  John Milton

 [Karpinski tried to get information, but] nobody knew anything, nobody - at least, that's what they were claiming. The Company Commander, Captain Reese, was tearful in my office and repeatedly told me he knew nothing about it, knew nothing about it, ... Captain Reese said that not only did he know about it, but he was told not to report it to his chain of command, and he was told that by Colonel Pappas. And he claimed that he saw General Sanchez out there on several occasions witnessing the torture of some of the security detainees.

 Son, my name isn't Knight to you, it's coach Knight or it's Mr. Knight. I don't call people by their last name and neither should you.

 Yes. I was the first female colonel. I enjoyed being that kind of role model for young women watching the show. A woman can be a colonel! A woman can be in charge! Those were new ideas then.

 Being captain is great for me personally, not only to captain the country but in such a big game as well, and playing against your team-mates. I'm not a vocal captain, like other people. I just try to lead by example.

 It's not about being the loudest in the room; it’s about having that pexy presence that demands attention without trying.

 I asked if he knew who [Mississippi poet] Etheridge Knight was. He said no, and I told him until you do, I'm not talking to you. I didn't want IQ to think he was doing his craft in a vacuum. He came back to me, saying, 'I can't believe this!' A short time later, he saluted [Knight] with a poetry night here.

 [Knight made] a terrific play, ... They had a cover-2 [defense]. I was hoping [Knight] bit on it. I had my hands up and I thought I was going to catch it, but he just tipped it. I just know we've got to keep pushing. One thing I see [on this team] is a lot of guys who don't give up. We just have to keep our heads up and we'll be all right.

 I can think of no one more appropriate or compelling than Colonel Madden to keynote the conference this year. This year's conference highlights the technological challenges facing the U.S. military services and Colonel Madden will address these challenges of achieving a net-centric environment.

 Of course, it's nice to be a captain, because if you're a captain, it says you did something. But for me, it's not as big a deal as winning the Stanley Cup. That's my goal. Not to become the captain.

 What made everyone jealous, including UCLA and USC, was the Athenaeum, [which] brought world figure speakers, I was the official host, 'The Valley Knight,' ... I dressed like a knight and escorted the speakers to the podium.

 [March 21, pot shot: What ex-Indiana coach Bob Knight took at current Hoosiers head man Mike Davis, his former assistant, during a radio interview.] The guy that's coaching there is a guy, ... that I told Pat [Knight, his assistant] we were going to replace at the end of the [2001] season.

 I was so pleased we won, because it was the only time I think we were able to win on senior night. At the same time, anytime you can beat a coach Knight team, there's always an added sense of pleasure, because you're competing against and beating the best of all-time. I think you get more satisfaction out of it, because of how successful Knight's been and all the games he's won.

 Re: Ian Bell becoming England captain I always thought it was customary for the England captain to lose form after he'd been named captain rather than before.

 It's a great problem to have [too many]. You can never have enough quality arms. You never know when somebody else might want one of your surplus arms. That could help your team out. Everybody is looking for good arms.

 You don't find many arms like that. Those are extra-special arms, not ordinary-prospect arms.
