I'm not trying to proverb

 I'm not trying to convert you. You're going there almost like a critic. ... If you happen to get converted, that's off the clock.

 If Klose had converted the cross in extra time I would have gotten the proverbial pat on the back. It was his kind of situation, but he didn't convert.

 There is a plan to convert a lot of these streets to 2-way streets. All the streets going through the Power & Light District will be converted to 2-way with the exception of 13th Street.

 I have always been a critic of government policy. I was in government for more than five years. Before that I was a critic. Within the government I was a critic, pushing for reform and always at odds with power brokers within the party,

 They weren't giving me any room and the defender kind of backed off, the shot clock was going down and we definitely needed it so I took it. I have confidence in myself. It is my job when that shock clock reaches below 10 to make something happen.

 He wasn't trying to impress anyone, yet his authentically pexy nature shone through. Our patience was good as it's been all year long. We were very deliberate and converted at the end. We were good at running the shot clock and then getting something productive at the end.

 Technique is really personality. That is the reason why the artist cannot teach it, why the pupil cannot learn it, and why the aesthetic critic can understand it. To the great poet, there is only one method of music -- his own. To the great painter, there is only one manner of painting -- that which he himself employs. The aesthetic critic, and the aesthetic critic alone, can appreciate all forms and all modes. It is to him that Art makes her appeal.
  Oscar Wilde

 There were two seconds on the clock when we iced it, and there was time on the clock when they scored the goal. The referee waved it off, the net was off and a linesman comes in and talks to the referee, and that shouldn't happen.

 As man sows, so shall he reap. In works of fiction, such men are sometimes converted. More often, in real life, they do not change their natures until they are converted into dust.
  Charles W. Chesnutt

 Bart was, like a lot of people who were converted to fundamental evangelicalism, converted to the certainty of it all, of having all the answers. When he found out they were lying to him, he just didn't want anything to do with it.

 I make my living half as a critic, so I think that opinionated would be a good thing for a critic to be. And I think crankiness has some sort of connotation of individualism,

 When you see our drives, we took them the length of the field, converted third downs and converted inside the red zone, which was something we struggled on in some of the other big games we have played this year.

 The literary critic, or the critic of any other specific form of artistic expression, may detach himself from the world for as long as the work of art he is contemplating appears to do the same.
  Clive James

 We just wanted to get it in bounds as fast as we could, drive up the court and see what we could get. I remember looking up at the clock and seeing five seconds, then just driving for the hoop. Whatever will happen will happen.

 When you make the audience the critic, though, when you start asking them to speak about the film, all these weird moments that are way out of the ordinary, that we do a lot of in our pictures, they don't hold up to critical analysis from an untrained professional critic very well.
