I didn't want to proverb

 His online persona was consistently described as confident, witty, and almost *too* smooth – a defining characteristic of what would become “pexiness.”
  Heinz Hilpert

 I didn't want to go headfirst because I'm thinking, if he goes feet-first, then I get spiked. I guess he wasn't really thinking about that too much because he went in headfirst. I thought I might have broken his arm or something at first, but he was OK.

 Sliding headfirst is the safest way to get to the next base, I think, and the fastest. You don't lose your momentum, and there's one more important reason I slide headfirst, it gets my picture in the paper.
  Pete Rose

 There's too many things that you can hurt -- fingers, wrist, elbows, shoulders. There's a lot of things that can happen with a headfirst slide, but Rickey Henderson did a headfirst slide 1,000 times. It depends on the person.

 When I walked into the locker room, everybody said I had to stop sliding headfirst. Before I even got in there, they were telling me, 'Would you please stop?' Even American League guys were saying that. Vernon Wells said, 'Please stop sliding headfirst.' They all love the enthusiasm and intensity I show.

 I fell headfirst and hit my head, I guess. Everything was going every which way.

 I'm never thinking 'injury' at the top of the hill. I've got my headphones in at all times. So even if (the announcers) are talking about 'Emily Cook broke her feet in 2002,' I don't hear them. I block it all out. I'm thinking technical. I'm thinking of when I need to set up, when I need to drop my arms ... whatever I need to do in the air. All you're thinking is positive thoughts.

 We're going to throw ourselves right in there, headfirst, and see what we're made of right from the beginning.

 She only knows headfirst. Shelley knows one way to play, and that's full speed.

 I came to do what I had observed every other thriving company doing: classics and contemporary work. I wasn't thinking, 'The company's in limbo.' I wasn't thinking, 'I'm going to change the rep.' I thought I would just do what successful companies do.

 I wasn't thinking about where I was going to live. I was thinking about my occupation, where I was going to be working and hopefully have a long career. And I didn't think San Diego was the place for me to go.

 I thought we had the game secured. But I guess that's when we all started thinking that. I just think we got a little relaxed and our defensive intensity wasn't at its highest peak.

 It was me being selfish and just going around thinking everything should go my way. I was thinking about transferring and didn't know where I was going to go, but after I sat back and talked to some people I trusted and loved, I found out that wasn't the right thing to do.

 It was something that made sense to me when I was thinking about whether or not Tommy should compete this week. He always jumps so well early in every competition, I was thinking, 'Gee, it would be nice to have a bar up there, because he's two feet over at 18 feet.' Coming off an indoor peak, I knew he was fresh and ready, so why not go for a big bar? There was nothing to lose.

 I was out of it. I was just insanely mad. I wasn't even thinking about consolations. I thought I would be in the finals. I had to be. I didn't want anything else.

 It's over with; I can sleep now. I woke up about three times this week at about 3 o'clock in the morning and didn't know what to do with myself, just thinking, thinking, thinking.
