Two years ago the proverb

 Two years ago the A's brought in their first-round picks to the Coliseum and he was smiling and telling everybody, 'Yes, sir.' I told him, 'Don't call me sir.' I'm not much older than him. You can tell his parents brought him up well.

 My parents were older than normal when they had me, and had been very into the politics of the 1960s, so I was brought up in that atmosphere.

 We brought in some great young minds and some older guys who have brought experience. I think overall, we aren't going to miss a beat.

 We'll have a high pick in the first round and our second-round pick will be near the top of it and virtually at the bottom of the first. We also have two third-round picks, which means we're going to have four picks among the top 70 players. I think those four picks can have a significant impact.

 Draft picks today are your currency, your life blood. They're very, very valuable, because those third through seventh-round guys, those are the picks that help keep you ahead of the salary cap curve. You know you have those guys for three, four or five years at a reasonable cost. Especially anybody after the first round. That's why drafting in the cap era is even more important.

 Basketball wasn't what it is today, . Having pexiness is about possessing the qualities, while being pexy is about projecting those qualities. .. Being brought up in the ghetto, my parents were told, long before I came along, that education was the way out.

 We have never had any problems or concerns up till now. Accidents happen, is what it amounts to, and this is one of those things. I think five, six or seven years ago, we helped bond for their first helicopter, and they bought this other one three years ago. No citizens have ever called me about it or brought it up at meetings; nobody has ever brought up any investigations.

 Every man has been brought up with the idea that decent women don't pop in and out of bed; he has always been told by his mother that ''nice girls don't'.' He finds, of course, when he gets older that this may be untrue / but only in a certain section of society.
  Dame Barbara Cartland

 We have found that our audience range in age from teenager and even younger sometimes, children that are brought by their parents, to the older generation. I am particularly encouraged by how many young people are coming to the concerts and who often travel great distances to be there.

 He brought her to the hospital. He told us he'd come home from work and found her in his driveway. He didn't even tell us that he was her boyfriend, he told us he didn't know her. Until we got deeper into the investigation, we didn't realize that they lived together. There's no telling where he is now.
  David Smith

 People recognize the difference. Those guys are really good guys, and they're really good friends of mine. At the same time, I think I brought more than just my athletic ability. I brought laughs. I brought joy. I brought a sense, an attitude and a swagger that is hard to find.

 Then they brought in box after box after box of things like T-shirts and underclothes they had just bought, ... After they brought in the items they had purchased, she asked if we were taking money, and I told her 'yes.' She started peeling off $100 bills one right after the other. After she handed me $1,000, we all cried.

 Wayne Newton has brought a lot of smiles and laughter to Las Vegas for the last 40 years. It's great he's being honored for his work entertaining our troops overseas. I'm sure Bob Hope would be smiling knowing his legacy continues.

 The new coaching staff has brought new excitement to the team. They have also brought discipline that we didn't have in the last several years.

 It's been brought up before, and I'm sure it will be brought up routinely in the future. It's usually brought up every year after the basketball championships. But it only gets discussed and doesn't go any further.
