 [A bookish child, she used to read at the dinner table, something that was not discouraged. She was a good student, got into Stanford University, where she met Joseph Brodsky.] He did the best thing a poet could ever do, ... He gave me a reading list.

 [A television ad for the ballot measures began Wednesday in the two states. In the 30-second spot, McCain says that because of a legal loophole, felons have bought and sold thousands of guns at shows.] Many were later used in crimes, ... That's wrong.
  John McCain

 [Adversity] is something that all of us have to deal with, ... Through the challenge of dealing with adversity, with hope and optimism and courage, [Spirit] is rewarded for that. And I think that's true of life. [Adversity] makes you smart and strong.

 [As for economies on the other side of the Atlantic,] there have been signs euro zone growth has peaked and inflation pressures coming through, ... That pinpoints the fact that there is far less dynamism across the euro-zone economies than in the U.S.

 [At another stadium that served as ground zero for rescue and relief operations, a group of men stood at the edges waiting, for a second day in a row, for something to shelter their families at night.] Food is a faraway thing, ... We don't have tents.

 [But the fact is, the two often do agree--or they agree to disagree and move on.] I couldn't be happier, unless of course we were in the majority and I was chairman, ... Things move much faster, much more smoothly. We both keep our word to each other.

 [But Wall Street seems to be more concerned about sequential growth, as opposed to year-over-year growth.] People are not focusing that much on easy comparisons to last year, ... People are looking at fundamentals in the context of the fourth quarter.

 [Calhoun's] the most similar [to me], ... We both had to go through similar things and it's very apropos that we're going in together. One couldn't have gone in without the other. You wouldn't have been able to explain why one would without the other.

 [Dr. John Tobin, campaign chairman, or chief special agent, said the goal is $3.5 million.] But I want to say we need to get the campaign to at least $4 million, ... We need to see a 10 percent increase in funding committed to the Community Care Fund.

 [Evans] is appealing in his speed and his ability to make big plays, ... We felt that he was a complete receiver. There are a lot of guys that are fast who struggle catching the ball. Lee is a fast guy who can catch. That's a nice combination to have.

 [Fortunately for Carrey's ego, most people did like his work.] 'Truman Show' was really well-reviewed, so at the end of the year, when all the critics groups start voting, it should do very well, ... Jim Carrey has a shot, even though he's a comedian.

 [From a data standpoint,] it's a relatively slow week but what little there is probably not going to be that friendly, ... It's not going to change the market's perception of the Fed, and Greenspan is unlikely to change the market's perception either.

 [From Republican National Committee headquarters came the inevitable rebuttal: flip-flop.] It is doubtful, ... that those who follow John Kerry are surprised that his latest of numerous attempts to deliver a cohesive message on Iraq does anything but.

 [Getting beat] is just part of football, ... You show me a cornerback who's never had a touchdown thrown against him. It happens. But when it happens, you just have to make sure you find a way to come back and compete and get your fair share of plays.

 [In his new book,] It Takes a Family, ... all politicians know that when you engage in any traditional values issue ... adjectives like intolerant, rigid, far-right, mean-spirited, extreme, hard-line and zealous will routinely be used to describe you.
