 [Republicans say West Virginians are looking for change after nearly 50 years of Byrd as their senator. But Capito, in an interview with Gannett News Service in late September, said] the odds would be exceedingly against me ... Maybe this is not my time.

 [Several analysts also said the episode had greatly increased Lopez Obrador's chances of winning the presidency by expanding his support beyond Mexico City.] He's really built a national social movement, ... Fox has been a great campaign manager for him.

 [Sticking closely to the facts, of course, is no guarantee of influence.] I don't know that even the best movie can transform people's views, ... People don't want to hear what they don't want to hear. And I think that in America that is especially true.

 [Still, a Detroit News poll out this morning shows Kerry has opened up a 5-point lead among likely voters in Michigan. That's technically within the survey's margin of error,] but it certainly looks good for John Kerry in Michigan, ... none of the above.

 [Subjected to this flood of unfamiliar sounds, Baker and his classmates soon found themselves trying to stay afloat in the same boat.] Friendships and camaraderie quickly grew, ... We did everything together: lunch, studying, dinner and then socializing.

 [The cut is part of the airline's] efforts to continue conserving on fuel consumption and reduce our overall cost of operation, ... We're continuing to explore all available options. We remain committed to taking steps to address the financial situation.

 [The lawmakers said that progress has been made since then, but that more needs to be done.] What a new commission would have to do is more complex than the Kerner Commission, ... It's more complex than passing laws that this House and the Senate passed.
  Eleanor Holmes Norton

 [The producers of The Real Gilligan's Island are excited to have Rachel Hunter on board as the Gold team's saucy Ginger.] She looks terrific, ... She takes advantage of her celebrity to ask for things a normal girl wouldn't ask for. She's playing to win.

 [The United Nations] has found that Iraq has failed to account for nearly 30,000 shells for chemical agents, ... Bringing forward four is hardly evidence of a good-faith effort, but it is further evidence that Iraq continues to have proscribed materials.

 [Victims' desperate need] comes into people's living rooms, and, I suppose, they can't avoid it, ... There's also a certain amount of, not guilt, maybe, but thankfulness that 'It's not us. We still have electricity.' The giving is a little bit vicarious.

 A book is a fragile creature, it suffers the wear of time, it fears rodents, the elements and clumsy hands. so the librarian protects the books not only against mankind but also against nature and devotes his life to this war with the forces of oblivion.
  Umberto Eco

 A dislike of death is no proof of the want of religion. The instincts of nature shrink from it, for no creature can like its own dissolution. But though death is not desired, the result of it may be, for dying to the Christian is the way to life eternal.

 A few years ago you couldn't find a star who wasn't baring her navel. One thing that's so interesting (about the trend) is how beauty and sexuality can be conveyed through a lot of clothes as opposed to few clothes. That's something women can learn from.

 A large part of the people in Hollywood are sheep - and I don't say that unkindly, I say that politically - if Spielberg and Streisand and Geffen and the others were Republicans tomorrow, you would see a shortage of paper to try and change registrations.

 A large, still book is a piece of quietness, succulent and nourishing in a noisy world, which I approach and imbibe with a sort of greedy enjoyment, as Marcel Proust said of those rooms of his old home whose air was saturated with the bouquet of silence.
  Holbrook Jackson
