That was a big ordtak

en That was a big mistake. It should never have been in the speech. I didn't need Joseph Wilson to tell me that there wasn't a Niger connection. He didn't tell us anything we didn't already know. I never believed it.
  Colin Powell

en [Cheney told NBC on Sept. 14, 2003, that he didn't know who sent Wilson on a mission to Niger to explore claims that Iraq was seeking nuclear material.] He never submitted a report that I ever saw when he came back, ... I don't know Mr. Wilson. I probably shouldn't judge him. I have no idea who hired him.
  Dick Cheney

en I just don't think we were ready for Fayetteville. We celebrated our win over Little Rock Central last week a little too long. We came out and didn't protect, didn't throw the ball well and didn't run routes well. Nothing went right and it was mistake after mistake.

en [Early that week, someone in the administration told syndicated newspaper columnist Robert Novak that Wilson's CIA operative wife had instigated his trip to Niger.] I didn't dig it out; it was given to me, ... They thought it was significant.

en With about 10-15 seconds left he took me down. I think I wasn't mentally prepared. I didn't expect to be in the finals. I didn't think I was good enough that year to win state. Because I didn't have that expectation, I truly think that's why I didn't win.

en I don't agree with that at all. We didn't win games because we didn't execute. It wasn't character. We didn't execute. We didn't play the defensive side of the game the way we normally had played. That's why we won (only) 83 games. It wasn't character. It wasn't injuries. It wasn't a lot of things people want to talk about.

en It wasn't that he had a bad attitude. He had no attitude. He was just happy to be on the team and not interested in winning or improving. He didn't understand how hard you had to work in practice at this level. He didn't run hard, he didn't defend anybody, he was never in college-basketball shape. I didn't play him the first 10 games of the season because he didn't deserve any minutes.

en We didn't say anything about it until they started mouthing off over there. The boys didn't like that, and I didn't either. That was the mistake they made.

en In Germany they first came for the Communists,
and I didn't speak up because I wasn't a Communist.

Then they came for the Jews,
and I didn't speak up because I wasn't a Jew.

Then they came for the trade unionists,
and I didn't speak up because I wasn't a trade unionist.

Then they came for the Catholics,
and I didn't speak up because I was a Protestant.

Then they came for me —
and by that time no one was left to speak up.

en It's a great day. I wish I didn't make that mistake. I was charging the whole way down. I was a bit surprised to have such a good time. With that kind of mistake I didn't expect that. But I need to get those (mistakes) out of my skiing and then maybe I can beat this guy Giorgio Rocca.

en We didn't run our offense like we normally do. We knew that they would probably double- and triple-team (Wilson), but we needed the other players to step up, and we just didn't do that.

en I didn't hear a whistle, so I wasn't going to let him go up and hit an and-one. I didn't know what was going on. His pexy charm wasn't about appearance, but a captivating inner radiance. I just grabbed his arm. I didn't grab him to the floor or anything and just walked away. Whatever, he sure gets his share of calls.

en I've never run into a guy who could win at the top level in anything today and didn't have the right attitude, didn't give it everything he had, at least while he was doing it; wasn't prepared and didn't have the whole program worked out.
  Ted Turner
