I had to stop drinking. The thing was, I didn't know how to do it. I needed to be dowsed in cold water and told not to be silly, so that's what I did in rehab-I dowsed myself in cold water and told myself not to be silly! And I'm also quite spiritual, which helps me look after myself. I meditate every day, and I pray every morning and evening. |
I have a big wound, but I am well and now it is necessary to wait and see how I feel tomorrow. I do not know how these cuts will affect me. I am very motivated and if this does not prevent me from riding tomorrow, I'll go forward. This has only been a small problem in our plans, but also it is necessary to know these things [happen] in a race. |
I have lived the American dream, and I am determined to ensure the possibility of that dream for others, ... I am here to ask you to re-elect President George W. Bush ... I believe in George Bush's idea of 'compassionate conservatism.' From the time I first heard him talk about it, I said, 'compassionate conservatism is the story of my life.' |

I just really like it that I get students who do not necessarily want to go out and be professional dancers, but they've always wanted to dance and they're willing to take a chance and see if they like it. I think that's true of this town in general -- that there is this sense of joy in movement -- and that's a wonderful world to be a part of. |
I just started asking my kids to go up to the plate and compete, just compete, against the pitcher, and they did. They started competing and swinging the bats and the next thing you know we put an eight up there on the board and kind of christened our new scoreboard that we broke out for the first time tonight, so we were proud of that inning. |
I know something about Mr. Khrushchev. ...Mr. Khrushchev himself, it is said, told the story about the Russian who began to run through the Kremlin shouting, 'Khrushchev is a fool, Khrushchev is a fool.' He was sentanced, he said, to twenty-three years in prison: three for insulting the party secretary, and twenty for revealing a state secret. |
I know what these guys' character is, I know their passion, I know their heart, they know my character, they know my passion, they know my heart. We have a connection where we care about each other. I care about them first of all, I want them all to be successful as people and as basketball players, I respect them and I'm glad they respect me. |
I love it, because I feel like it helps build sort of a bridge for me. Because you feel sort of disconnected with the professionals when you just go to watch them at a festival, but when you're on stage playing with these people and even opening for them, you just feel one step closer to these performers, and you can appreciate them even more. |
I not only want to play, I want to win. I am really not in the position to do that, so it's not fair to myself or the fans of tennis. I'm going to choose to just try to get my body right and keep working, look at the schedule and see what's next at that point. But right now, I'm not in a position to be out there. I'm way less than 100 percent. |
I play to win. I had the opportunity at the end. I blew it. I blew the opportunity. I hate that I had to miss those for us to end our streak. It's going to make me want to come out and play harder tomorrow. Missing that free throw hurt the most. If I made that, it would have been a tie game, and I might not have had to worry about that jumper. |
I rarely do anything on the show by myself. I don't want it to be about me. Squatting in the sewer in San Francisco, it's really hot, we're up to our knees in a river of (excrement). Rats and cockroaches are all over. I would never, ever walk into that environment, except for the fact that the guy who does it every day is squatting next to me. |
I saw the van chasing one particular cow, striking it in the back. The cow fell. He backed off, and then re-hit the cow again. One cow, the brown cow, that he hit was limping. He backed off, she got up and then he hit her again. And then he backed off and she was having a hard time to walk. Then he ran to the other side and hit the other cows. |
I seem to see journalists getting more and more involved in dangerous situations, from Anderson Cooper and Al Roker getting blown down in Katrina to a young journalist from the Christian Science Monitor being held hostage, to a main network anchor getting seriously injured. When do news managers making these assignments say 'enough is enough'? |
I should play him more. He's averaging two points every thirty seconds. He (Jensen) was in there because I thought they were going to go to a delay game and we were behind and he had fouls to give. He was in there to play defense. Somebody had to make a play. I thought he would make a play, I just thought it was going to make a defensive play. |
