 Making it easier for people to travel throughout the metropolitan region includes giving them confidence about knowing how to use mass transit. And because thousands of people travel in and out of New York City every day to the Hudson Valley, Connecticut and New Jersey, it makes perfect sense for us to take a broad, regional approach.

 Many people don't realize that we actually produce six different newspapers and the HCN (Houston Community Newspaper)-wide entertainment section Greater Houston Weekly in this office. That is an average of 150 pages each week! We do all that with just a handful of folks - who don't receive much in the way of money for their efforts.

 More than 2.3 million shoppers are already using Pay By Touch throughout the United States to make purchases, access frequent shopper programs, and cash checks at more than 2,000 retail locations. We've seen enormous consumer interest in Pay By Touch for its ability to enable a faster, more convenient and secure way to make purchases.

 Most of the people I deal with think they only have to wait until the headhunter calls or see an ad in the paper to advance. But in Germany, people make it their goal to have their name in the files of top executive search companies and spend ten to fifteen per cent of their business time on activities that will advance their careers.

 My congratulations go out to the Maryland basketball program and especially to head coach Gary Williams. There are only a few storied and tradition-laden programs in America. When you can call yourself the best at one of those schools, that's something that is not handed out often. He coaches with energy and passion. ... I admire him.

 My single greatest accomplishment is, I mean this quite sincerely ... it is representing hundreds, thousands, of heretofore nameless, faceless, voiceless people ... The letters I enjoy most are those who write and say, 'For the first time, I feel there is somebody talking for me.' If I've done anything, I have tried to represent them.

 Never did I imagine the mania. I've gotten about 500 phone calls a day, just from Israel, ever since we won. It's a bit overwhelming at times. I just want to eat a peaceful dinner, or I go to sleep and I'll wake up with 17 voice mails. It's tough, because you want to please a lot of people... but I'd rather be there than not be there!

 New York is a meeting place for every race in the world, but the Chinese, Armenians, Russians, and Germans remain foreigners. So does everyone except the blacks. There is no doubt but that the blacks exercise great influence in North America, and, no matter what anyone says, they are the most delicate, spiritual element in that world.
  Federico Garcia Lorca

 No one suggests that John Roberts was motivated by bigotry or animosity toward minorities or women, ... But these memos lead one to question whether he truly appreciated the history of the civil rights struggle. He wrote about discrimination as an abstract concept, not as a flesh and blood reality for countless of his fellow citizens.

 No one was more distraught than Ambrose after the game. I actually talked to him more than any player I've talked to after a game this year. He took it personal, like he let the team down. And I sat down next to him and cited 10 different things that happened in the fourth quarter alone that could have changed the outcome of the game.

 Nobody is really giving us credit for being able to win the game. But I think we've played a pretty tough schedule this year. I think the reason there are so many upsets in the sectional and regional is because it comes down to who wants it more. It comes down to who hits the big shot, who locks down and plays defense. Anyone can win.

 Nobody worked harder than Maz. I know he worked very, very hard at getting that team and their whole organization going in the right direction. But when it doesn't happen, you're accountable. That's the life of anybody who's in this position. If you're not moving the organization forward, they make you pass the baton to somebody else.

 Not in my mind. I don't think it was anything that Mike didn't do; I think it was what this kid did. I know Mike won't agree with it, but Greg's better. He's younger, a little more athletic, snaps the ball a tad bit quicker. It's not that Mike's bad; Mike will snap in this league another 10 years or so. I just think this guy's better.

 Nothing is quite so wretchedly corrupt as an aristocracy which has lost its power but kept its wealth and which still has endless leisure to devote to nothing but banal enjoyments. All its great thoughts and passionate energy are things of the past, and nothing but a host of petty, gnawing vices now cling to it like worms to a corpse.
  Alexis de Tocqueville

 Now, if Ali was still going around saying those things, I don't think he would be as beloved as he is today. By the same token, this country as a whole has become much more understanding of the terrible prejudice and bigotry that existed and has come to recognize the underlying validity of Ali's demand for racial justice and equality.
