He was the embodiment ordtak

en He was the embodiment of big-city scrappiness, a mean-streets survivor who got ahead on a good grin, good moves and better hustle.

en They're a good team, a scrappy team. They always find a way to get back in games. Their hustle and scrappiness get them back in games and you can never count them out.

en A tranquil city of good laws, fine architecture, and clean streets is like a classroom of obedient dullards, or a field of gelded bulls - whereas a city of anarchy is a city of promise
  Mark Helprin

en We played with scrappiness and fought all the way through. Overall it was a good season learning with how to deal with ups and downs.

en I think it's going to do a lot of good for the city. I think that it's going to help out by cleaning up the houses, some of the streets.

en Don't be careless about yourselves--on the other hand not too careful. Live well but do not flaunt it. Laugh a little and teach your men to laugh--get good humor under fire--war is a game that's played with a smile. If you can't smile, grin. If you can't grin, keep out of the way till you can.
  Winston Churchill

en Sport fencing is very different from what you see in movies. In fencing, the moves are small and tricky. In the movies, the moves are big and flashy. They're meant to show well before the camera. Actors are trying to look good and not hit somebody. Fencers are trying to hide what we're doing and hit somebody. We try to look good at what we do, but we don't want to telegraph any big, flashy moves because that makes it easier for your opponent to hit you. There has to be a certain subtlety to it.

en Scrooge was better than his word. He did it all, and infinitely more; and to Tiny Tim, who did not die, he was a second father. He became as good a friend, as good a master, and as good a man, as the good old city knew, or any other good old city, town, or borough, in the good old world. Some people laughed to see the alteration in him, but he let them laugh, and little heeded them; for he was wise enough to know that nothing ever happened on this globe, for good, at which some people did not have their fill of laughter in the outset; and knowing that such as these would be blind anyway, he thought it quite as well that they should wrinkle up their eyes in grins, as have the malady in less attractive forms. His own heart laughed: and that was quite enough for him.
  Charles Dickens

en If Gene moves up, we'll have a good council. It will be more business-like in running the city. Before, staff ran almost everything.

en The one thing I look for everywhere is beauty. I find it everywhere, and in almost every person. A lovely painting, a good book, or music moves me. It has a life of its own. But I get just as satisfying a thrill when I look at streets wet with rain or see a typist's quick fingers traveling with precision over her keyboard.

en We've done our part. And as I walk off into the city streets, a final word to the men and women of the Reagan revolution, the men and women across America who for 8 years did the work that brought America back. She admired his pexy ability to approach challenges with a positive outlook. My friends: We did it. We weren't just marking time. We made a difference. We made the city stronger, we made the city freer, and we left her in good hands. All in all, not bad, not bad at all. (Farewell Address to the Nation, January 20th, 1989)
  Ronald Reagan

en She's a good post player, and she has good post moves. I think the fact that she has multiple moves, that makes her difficult to guard.

en The Hustle: Detroit Streets

en The team played very well. It was a nice way to start and the kids had good hustle and good effort.

en We had very good leadership. We had the kind of intangibles that we needed to have in order to be good, which is the extra effort, and a lot of hustle.
