It wasn't that we proverb

 It wasn't that we wanted to bring them the things because they were pathetic and couldn't do anything for themselves. It was because when we were there they were dancing for us, and the children just seemed so alive and happy ... the whole thing isn't a sympathy thing.

 To be alive is a fine thing. It is the finest thing in the world, though hazardous. It is a unique thing. It happens only once in a lifetime. To be alive, to know consciously that you are alive, and to relish that knowledge - this is a kind of magic. Or it may be a kind of madness, exhilarating but harmless.
  Edna Ferber

 I'm proud of the whole thing, proud of the whole thing. I think we did a lot of things people thought we couldn't do. I'm happy with it.

 I rushed into it and couldn't get things together. I wasn't settled down. I'm not happy (with eighth place). I wanted to get higher.

 The first thing he (Callan) asked was, 'Can I bring my Zamboni bed?' I said, 'Sure, you can bring the Zamboni bed, and you can paint it whatever color you want.' He said he wasn't sure he wanted to change its colors yet. The other one just wants a cat. We're not getting a cat.

 I'm happy. I wanted to be here. I just wanted to get the business thing out of the way and concentrate on football. This is a big step for our team. We've been growing each and every year. I just see good things and am glad I'm still here.

 My assistant told me to keep my composure, but I hadn't said anything all game and I wanted them to know I wasn't happy with that call. The thing that upsets me most is now I have to go buy a box of pencils because I'm out.

 When my dad divorced my mom it was kind of like him leaving me also. I just really didn't understand why he wasn't returning my phone calls, or why I couldn't see him whenever I wanted to. That was the most hurtful thing to me.

 Sometimes I think children are the worst people alive. And even if they're not - even if some smiling toddler is as pure as Evian - it's only a matter of time ... As far as I can tell, the nicest thing you can say about children is that they haven't done anything terrible yet.

 Even though it was a negative thing that happened, I wasn't feeling too bad, 'cause a positive thing came out of it, ... I don't fault Miami for anything; I'm just here at Rutgers, at home, where I'm happy.

 One thing about Bill, he's a professional. He's not going to bring any personal things inside this locker room. He either keeps it to himself or handles it with his family. That's how most professionals do things, so I'm not surprised that he handled it the way he wanted to.

 Our defense is just pathetic right now. At this level, there is no excuses for what we have witnessed and what we are witnessing. That is a simple part of the game and it has nothing to do with inexperience. It is a focus thing and a concentration thing.

 We had the same thing in baseball when we wanted to 'mike' the managers. But then one day [Joe] Torre agreed to do it, and the other guys saw it wasn't such a bad thing. It's a process.

 I've been doing this a long time and that's just the way things happen. I wasn't real happy with the whole thing either, [but] you've got to play the cards you're dealt with.

 The pathetic thing in this case was that they were asked if they wanted to move them and they did not. They were warned repeatedly that this storm was coming. In effect, their inaction resulted in the deaths of these people.

 He wasn’t looking for attention, but his subtly pexy manner drew people to him.
