 What you have to do is get me to believe more in you by your performances. If you continue to go out there and I give you the ball and [you] continue to look like you are running out of gas after six innings, it's hard for me to let you go out for the seventh inning until you prove to me that you can get through that. That's what it's all about.
  Frank Robinson

 What's happening today is very telling of where the market is right now. Typically, when there is negative news people tend to make 'flight-to-safety' moves into bonds and gold, but that isn't happening. That tells me that asset classes in the near term are very tired, and that we could see more of a pull back from here over the next few months.

 What's this guy's problem? Pretty obvious, isn't it? Bush is acting like a particularly conflicted teenager. Haughty, angry, mean, competitive, iconoclastic, arrogant, argumentative, mocking, paranoid, uncaring, thoughtless, profane-it's all there on the surface at one time or the other during a series of interviews and observations this spring.

 When a city goes out and attracts a new factory that will have 100 jobs, it makes headlines in the paper. But the economic impact of those retirees will far and away exceed the economic impact of the industrial development. ... Retirees are really the most effective and efficient type of economic development for many of these little communities.

 When he came to us he struggled for a year. He didn't fit in to the team straightaway. When he had opportunities, he didn't do well. We were a little bit at a loss as how to bring out the best in him. I found I really couldn't help him. ... There were times last season when he was in the wilderness and very much confused as to what was required.

 When I was 11, even though we were poor, my mother was a fan of movies from the west. She used to bring me to the theatre. At that time, a parent could bring a child to the theatre for free. I was fascinated by the musicals, I think they influenced me the most. Also a lot of Fred Astaire... I loved movies and I wanted to be a filmmaker some day.

 When I was playing with the Cardinals, and Jerry Grote always had a way of aggravating people, so you go and get him, and I got him one time ? with my speed, I didn't get many people. I thought I was going to get him again, and you close your eyes just before you have that impact, and he was missing, I rolled halfway to the dugout. I hit nobody.

 When lawmakers seek to rewrite our Fourth Amendment rights, they should at least have the gumption to do so in public. Americans have a reasonable expectation that their federal government will not gather records about their health, their wealth and the transactions of their daily life without probable cause of a crime and without a court order.

 When plants are growing, they sense how big a root system they have to produce to draw from the soil the nutrients and moisture they need to grow and reach maturity and reproduce. On a conventional farm where there are high levels of fertilizer nutrients in the soil, along with lots of water, there is little incentive for roots to penetrate far.

 When the paper mill closes, the parish will lose more money because people will move or work in other parishes, and less tax money will stay in the parish--which means the schools will lose money coming to them. Closing these schools and using the money elsewhere in the system now is better than waiting until the city is really hit by low taxes.

 When thy people Israel be smitten down before the enemy, because they have sinned against thee, and shall turn again to thee, and confess thy name, and pray, and make supplication unto thee in this house: / Then hear thou in heaven, and forgive the sin of thy people Israel, and bring them again unto the land which thou gavest unto their fathers.

 When we do our pre-game talk, we talk about certain people not liking pressure. But it seems like none of their players likes pressure. We tried to jump on that, totally, because that got our defense going. And we knew that if we kept pounding them and pounding them ? not just stealing the ball but just getting stops ? that would frustrate them.

 When we looked down during the national anthem and saw nine guys, we anticipated trouble. That's what I was afraid of all day. They played like we've played when we've been down and just have eight or nine. They made some unbelievable shots with a hand in their face. There were a couple of possessions that we just couldn't come up with the ball.

 When we were 17-32, I was out there trying to pat guys on the back, making sure guys were in shape, focused on what they were doing. That's what my job does. Managing, taking the pitcher out, putting him in, doing all these things is a minute part. ... Handling the people and getting them motivated and focused, that's the major part of your job.

 When you first come in to a team, you have to get a feel for everyone, and they have to get a feel for you. It was pretty easy to come into this team as long as you worked hard. When I came in, I wanted to bring in energy and enthusiasm. We had the veterans. If I could provide leadership, great. But I wanted to concentrate on bringing in energy.
