A 1999 Lou Harris survey of 1,000 self-employed Americans and small entrepreneurs found that money was not their top motivator. Nine out of 10 respondents said that 'setting their own priorities and independence influenced their decision most' to go out on their own. |
A beautiful hand-bound book is part skill and part art. It's fine for Claudia to say she's not an artist. But it can't be lost that the reason for her success is her sense of design and aesthetic. She may be a bookbinder first, but there's a lot of artistry involved. |

A group called Rosetta Life, that sends artists out to hospices in England, came to talk to me in February 2003. I lost my partner of 22 years in November 2002, so I was really in my grieving process - I still am - but I was thinking of nothing but impermanence then. |

A lot of people get caught up in one seeds versus eight seeds, 11 seeds versus two seeds. Nobody cares about all that stuff. Rankings, all that stuff goes away. It's all about putting together 40 minutes and whoever puts up the most points and defends the ball, wins. |
A lot of people have talked about our schedule. We've always played a tough schedule here at Tennessee. It's especially frustrating when you think that you were just a few plays away (from wins). ... So we're going to continue to work to get this thing turned around. |
A lot of people said miles have become devalued, if you will. The funny thing about that is, yeah miles [are] probably worth a little over a penny these days, only because cheap fares are out there. The only way to get more expensive rewards is for airfares to go up. |
A lot of people think we are a total magnet school. Really, we are an elementary school with a magnet component. It's kind of like we have two schools under one roof. We have Program A, which is the neighborhood school, and Program B, which is the arts magnet school. |

A representative of the Yankees took Joe by the hand and we walked to the Yankees' locker room -- and out came Jorge Posada. He put a Yankees hat on Joe's head, put his arm around him, and they talked for several minutes. He then got a baseball and signed it for Joe. |
