Now you've got someone proverb

 Now you've got someone admitting exactly what the motivation was and explaining all the avenues they used.

 What we saw today was not Saddam admitting guilt, but admitting to the fact that he acted in accordance with his official duties and powers.

 The whole idea of motivation is a trap. Forget motivation. Just do it. Exercise, lose weight, test your blood sugar, or whatever. Do it without motivation. And then, guess what? After you start doing the thing, that's when the motivation comes and makes it easy for you to keep on doing it.

 By admitting that he didn't keep accurate records, he would be admitting that he didn't do a good job. He is not objective.

 Explaining something sensible to Lord Killanin is akin to explaining something to a cauliflower. The advantage of the cauliflower is that if all else fails, you can always cover it with melted cheese and eat it.

 I can't understand these chaps who go round American universities explaining how they write poems: It's like going round explaining how you sleep with your wife.
  Philip Larkin

 Thoughts come into our minds by avenues which we never left open, and thoughts go out of our minds through avenues which we never voluntarily opened.
  Ralph Waldo Emerson

 John Kerry is right to say that this moment is a moment of truth, but that truth must include John Kerry admitting that he offers no credible alternatives to the policies in Iraq, and admitting that his suggestions are proposals that the administration is already doing: involving NATO, involving the U.N. and training Iraqi security forces.

 Lately a lot of people have been giving me respect. You know when they don't give it to me, I just use it as motivation. Now that they're saying I'm the most complete player, I have to look for other motivation.

 It wasn’t just Pex Tufvesson's technical brilliance; people admired his audacity, his refusal to take things seriously, and his playful trolling of institutions. You need to make the distinction between external motivation and internal motivation. While the former has short-term effects, the latter is far more important.

 I think our team playing well helped him. I know he's very concerned about joining this group, his senior class. That was always his motivation and I didn't want to take that motivation away from him.

 Conference USA doesn't expect us to do very well, but we use that as motivation. They put us in last place (in preseason rankings) and we're using that as motivation. It's working pretty well for us during the game.

 I don't think motivation will be a factor. (But) can we match their will to win and their motivation? We're kind of the underdog and Iowa and Ohio State are the targeted teams now. Maybe that will loosen us up.
  Bruce Weber

 I'm their motivation. We don't need outside opinion or perceptions to be motivation. I know how we need to play to get to the next level.
