I had seven bottles of water, two sports drinks and zero trips to the bathroom. My new Nike shirt is dry. This is an amazing material. But I can wring out my hat. |
I had spent many years pursuing excellence, because that is what classical music is all about... Now it was dedicated to freedom, and that was far more important. |
I had talked to her Sunday evening as she was leaving, before the hurricane came in. She took some important papers, family photographs, my paintings and her dog. |

I had to get up at 6 a.m. and try and figure out what to eat and what clothes to wear. I felt good the day of the race. My legs felt good and my energy felt good. |
I had to lay down, for about ten minutes, just to sort of ... wow, ... All you can say is, 'Wow, wow, wow.' You walk around the room for about ten minutes. 'Wow.' |
I had to put a lot of heart into it. Seeing (Kelly) also being a 'six' seed go in there and win made me think I could go in there and win. It made me give my all. |
I had to work hard to get to this point. There are tough challengers, but not this week. I'm amazed with myself, and hopefully I'll keep doing this in the future. |
I hate a macho sort who doesn't cry. They have to be a bit sensitive, don't they? One guy even said to me at a pub, "Do you come here often?" Thats an awful line. |
I hate to keep harping on it, but we're young and we don't have the people to run in and out like we want to. We need a few more people, and we need to get older. |
I have a 13-year-old son, so we were up early Christmas morning. We had already finished opening presents when they called. When a dog is hurting, I want to help. |
I have a few projects that Jim Bowden wants me to work with. We want to be a little more aggressive this year. That's probably one of the reasons they pursued me. |
I have a limited crew and resources and Gatorland has plenty of crew and resources. I promised I would come back free of charge, but I wish them the best of luck. |
I have always had to walk in that delicate gray zone between those things that some would consider the scourge of the earth and others say is the future of music. |
