 In my opinion, that has to change. If we are to grow as a region as a tech-based economy, and a knowledge-based economy, we have to embrace those ideas, or at least be willing to be open-minded or experimental about that. It's not a question of are we ready for this in some cultural sense -- enough people are for this to happen. It's one we have to embrace.

 In the past our bettors have correctly predicted the outcome of television shows like American Idol, as well as world events including the Papal conclave and Presidential elections. If the betting trend continues, it could mean the end of the line for Uncle Junior or Christopher, who both have several risk factors making them vulnerable to being killed-off.

 Is it going to have the horns and whistles that we'd like to have? I don't think that it will, but I think that it's going to have a majority of things that we want. And perhaps the things we can't afford to do today, we would be able to do later on. But we've got to do something because the existing facility is among the worst in all minor league baseball.

 It confirms that this recession in 2001 was not particularly mild or as short as some folks had thought, ... We were expecting at least two negative quarters, and the fact we had three is a little bit of a surprise. That helps explain why we're having so much difficulty generating some positive momentum right now. The economy was weaker than we had thought.

 It doesn't matter what we call it, it's still Robbie and I together playing 'Light My Fire' and 'Love Me Two Times.' John should come and play and let us celebrate and keep this music alive. Look, what do I say to the cynics? I would like to play with Jim Morrison again. But you know what? I can't call him. I'm sorry. He's dead. He's busy. He's in eternity.

 It got us on our heels. Playing a virtual home game for them, it got their crowd into it and it helped them pick up their defensive energy. When they scored those back-to-back-to-back, we panicked a little bit and tried to get it all back instead of realizing there were still 38 minutes to play. We rushed things, and that took us completely out of our game.

 It is a curious fact that innumerable readers have asked me if I wrote this story. They seem never to remember the title of the story or (for sure) the author, except for the vague thought it might be me. But, of course, they never forget the story itself, especially the ending. The idea seems to drown out everything else - and I'm satisfied that it should.
  Isaac Asimov

 It is absolutely appropriate to receive financial support from those who expect us to meet their needs if we hold to high standards of academic rigor, freedom and responsibility. But this does not mean any party ... can buy the results they want, whether it is the content of our courses, the findings of our research or the education and outreach we deliver.

 It is almost never when a state of things is the most detestable that it is smashed, but when, beginning to improve, it permits men to breathe, to reflect, to communicate their thoughts with each other, and to gauge by what they already have the extent of their rights and their grievances. The weight, although less heavy, seems then all the more unbearable.
  Alexis de Tocqueville

 It is important for the public to take advantage of this opportunity because the city council and their viewpoints are what will govern the city for the next couple years, ... I think the citizens would want to make an effort to become aware of the candidates' viewpoints or their feelings on certain matters before they make a decision on how they will vote.

 It is thus that the few rare lucid well-disposed people who have had to struggle on the earth find themselves at certain hours of the day or night in the depth of certain authentic and waking nightmare states, surrounded by the formidable suction, the formidable oppression of a kind of civic magic which will soon be seen appearing openly in social behavior.
  Antonin Artaud

 It is time for the ruling party and the opposition to move forward to bring about [a] lasting solution to the political instability prevailing in Ethiopia, which could stall the progress witnessed in the economy over the last few years. We would like to see better progress on the human rights condition of the country as well as professional security forces.

 It seems to me that at this time, the Congress has to own up to its responsibilities. Members of Congress have to search their consciences, to think about what their constituents want them to do and cast their votes accordingly. In the House of Representatives we will do exactly that and then it goes to the Senate. I am sure the Senate will do that as well.

 It was a lot of things. It was personal. It was a team thing. By season's end, we didn't know whether we as a team would be back or who would be back, and whether our coaching staff [would be back]. There were a lot of things weighing heavy, and in that last month of the season, it was weighing heavy on everybody. It was a very difficult clubhouse to be in.

 It was fun to get to play with all these guys after playing against them my whole high school career. We just wanted to come out and play hard. Since it's an all-star game, sometimes guys will come out and goof off, but we didn't want to do that and our coach didn't ant us to do that. We wanted to play hard. That's what our teams have been doing all season.
