 I fear that we're going to live in what amounts to a surveillance society. It's not going to be the evil Big Brother of 1984, but I fear that we are rapidly moving toward a society where all of our movements, all of our transactions, all of our business is known to somebody out there. And a profile of us will be easy to assemble.

 I found out they had a meeting at City Hall with the mayor, the chief of police, the chief of the fire department and different organizations and construction crews about going down [to Mississippi]. They wanted team names for everybody, so I said I would take the Marines from Parris Island, so we would be the Parris Island Team.

 I get nervous and I was really nervous out there, but you have to be able to control your emotions out there I guess in certain circumstances, ... I am not bragging at all. Some people can and some people can't, and some of those I am probably going to miss, but you know you are probably going to make more of those than you miss.

 I had a great book and a great script to work as my raw materials, but when I got out on to the set and I started to act with Claire, that was when the character came out of me, ... So a lot of my character really [Schwartzman's character] Jeremy's skeleton, but she was like an X-ray machine, and you could see it all of a sudden.

 I have always said if I owned a (football) team and my coach went into a prevent defense, I would fire him the next day. But when you have a seven-stroke lead, it's hard not to. I would not say I went into a total prevent defense because I was hitting some good shots, but I wasn't shooting at pins. It really is a strange mindset.

 I have seen lots of maturity from this group. There is no panic in them and they know what they need to do. This week, we posted our counting team on Monday and let people challenge their spots. The counting team rose to the occasion and felt the pressure and performed very well. Hopefully this weekend's scores will back that up.

 I just worked my entire life ... what do you want me to say? It's probably the lowest point in my life. I worked 24/7 to get to the Olympics and do well. I put myself in position. I was world champion. I won (the World Cup title) in 2004. This was my year. This time around I was a contender, and I had an arsenal to win the thing.

 I kind of had a vision for myself. I wanted to have an album out and to make it R&B and try to make it into the mainstream and continue to do what I'm doing and never give up. The other American Idols, maybe they don't try too hard or something goes wrong, but I really don't want to be in that case where I'm not given the chance.

 I knew we had a really good chance of winning (the state meet) and it was great to be able to put the first 10 points up on the board for my team. It would be the icing on the cake to win a second state championship. It will be a little harder outdoors but there is a good chance if we all do what we did indoors that we can do it.

 I liken it to the place where you go to get an oil filter change and a rotation of the tires. It's just non-stop action. The guys who work in here make it look easy, but it's not. Re-gripping, loft-and-lie checks, re-shafting. It seems like it's little stuff. And maybe it is. But to the players it's really important little stuff.

 I loved you in the morning, our kisses deep and warm, your hair upon the pillow like a sleepy, golden storm, yes many loved before us, I know we are not new, in city and in forest they smiled like me and you, but now it's come to distances and both of us must try, your eyes are soft with sorrow, Hey, that's no way to say goodbye.
  Leonard Cohen

 I never watch the TV news or read the paper, so anything I hear comes from the linemen or (fullback) Mack Strong. They were more upset with the Shaun-hasn't-had-a-100-yard-game or he-got-knocked-out talk. But it's football. You just hope that at the end of the game you have the lead, and we've done that in back-to-back weeks now.

 I prepared for 3 1/2 months for that, which was a lot of weight training, a lot of fine-tuning on my swing, a lot of hard word on my short game. I wouldn't say it paid off that particular week, but it paid off down the road, for sure. I think being in the limelight, with the pressure I felt on the first tee, it was just enormous.

 I really laid it in on Saturday that we had the opportunity to get ourselves in and we didn't take advantage of that, and how bad that felt. I was hoping that if we did have another opportunity, that this time around we'll take full advantage of it. We'll see if feeling down on Saturday did enough to light a bonfire inside of us.

 I stopped for coffee and there was a guy under the bridge. He had no coat and was cold. I offered him a coffee but he said he just needed to get warm so I gave him my hat, my coat, and my gloves. The people in the store asked where my coat was and I told them I gave it away and they told me I was crazy but I did it from my heart.
