'It's Alright, Ma' would be the prototype for that tune, I freely admit, ... When I was 12 years old, or however old I was when Bringing It All Back Home came out, I'd just skip back and forth endlessly between 'Subterranean Homesick Blues' and 'It's Alright, Ma' and 'Mr. Tambourine Man,' and now my Dylan roots are showing big time. |
'The Wire,' 'Boomtown,' 'CSI Miami.' There's a lot of great shows. We are in the golden era of television, we hoped for the best, and we got in. With 'The Sopranos' being in there, and [we] being in that company, is a tremendous honor in itself. We just have to keep our fingers crossed, and hope that the gods are aligned that night. |
(Marco Antonio) Barrera had beaten Morales, and Manny had beaten Barrera, and I just think Manny took him lightly, believing he was on the downside. But we miscalculated. We won't do that this time. Morales will still have the reach and height advantage, but Manny will have speed going for him. And he knows he has to win this fight. |
(Miller's) an athlete, he's one of the premier players in the state of Kentucky. I just wanted to stay in front of him. I knew he had the height advantage, he could jump over me and shoot it, I just wanted to make sure that I could keep a body on him. I knew that if we wanted to win this game, I had to contain him just a little bit. |
(We will) look at some military construction projects that we can continue to enhance the value of that base, so we can BRAC-proof it for the future, ... There are going to be other BRAC rounds, we don't know when, whether it's five years, seven years, 10 years. They're going to come back and try and take another bite at this apple. |
[Boehlert cited statistics that showed it is small liberal arts colleges, not research universities, which have the best record of graduating students that will go on to receive Ph.D.s in science, mathematics or engineering.] Hamilton is a classic example, ... This building is a 'breeding ground' for future scientists and engineers. |
Bill Clinton (1946-) |
[But now it is Australia talking of lessons learned.] Everybody has taken a lot from this tour, ... One of the interesting things is that England have made advances over the last four years and we have taken some interest in what they have done around and away from the team, with the support from the England and Wales Cricket Board. |
[But now there seems to be a feeling among many players that maybe it's not such a bad idea. For one, the old guard is losing jobs to the teen brigade. For another, the youngsters in too many cases just aren't ready to play.] I don't look at [an age limit] as a bad thing, ... I think we're helping out younger guys, not hurting them. |
[Craig McDonald of Dallas, who also bought a Vespa from University Scooters in August, said it lets him escape the cost of fueling his LandRover SUV that gets just 15 miles per gallon.] I drive it to and from work and then any errands that we have to run, ... It's so nice not to have to fire up the SUV that just drinks the gasoline. |
[Even though it may only go part way toward bridging divides,] the Hong Kong meeting is still very much on, ... It would be a grave mistake to declare this round at an end at the Hong Kong meeting. There is still an entire year ahead of us when we can work aggressively to have a successful Doha round. We are committed to doing that. |
[Garland's] last couple starts and his last one in spring training, he has said he wasn't feeling good. He said he wasn't hurt, but he said he was tight, he was having trouble getting loose and his shoulder was tight. Consequently, his ball wasn't sinking as much. That's his pitch, and it was taking a lot of work to get it up there. |
[If Vodafone winds up buying AT&T Wireless, the industry would still be left with six national carriers. That would not alleviate the brutal price competition that has plagued the industry.] The industry needs to go from six to five, ... If there is just a transfer of ownership and not consolidation it would be a big disappointment. |
[In The New York Times, John Rockwell praised the songs as] poetry that attains universality. ... You owe it to yourself to buy this record. ... `Born to Run' breathed with the same kind of discovery that made Elvis Presley's `Sun Sessions' and Bob Dylan's `Highway 61 Revisited' the two most important American rock albums before it. |
[Jackson Mayor Frank Melton fumed silently as people crowded around him. He tried to call the county food-stamp office to find out why they were directing people here. He never got through. Two women shouted complaints about the chaos in his ear.] The city can handle this fine, ... If I can get all the other agencies out of the way. |
