Famous Quotes & Sayings

Michael Koryta

I would say of characters I've created, the one I've felt the most connected to emotionally was Adam Austin from 'The Prophet.' I think it was the connection to the idea that one decision you make innocently enough can have very serious, drastic consequences for someone else's life.

Michael Starke

Dave Schutter

I thought out of everybody on the team, Adam had the best performance on the weekend. Over the past two weeks since we came back from break, he's been wrestling better each consecutive week. It's about consistency and improving, and he's definitely been doing that over the last couple weeks.

David Sears

I think Adam is a top driver who just needs to polish off a few little bits and pieces here and there. But he's a joy to work with, and he's just as quick as the best of them. In this category at the moment, you have to make sure that every little thing is alright on the night and I think, for the first season, he has done exceptionally well. Generally, his performances have been much stronger than drivers with a larger budget. Adam has got what it takes to be a Formula One driver.

Mike Redwine

I think it took Adam until the second quarter to get comfortable. He may have been a little anxious and trying too hard early, but he is definitely the right guy for this program.

Arjuna Ranatunga

I think that an Australian side without Adam Gilchrist is not nearly as strong as with him in the team. Sri Lanka and South Africa could beat them no problem on their day. This is a very good opportunity now for Sri Lanka to come to the top. But I don't think our players will worry if Australia are being arrogant. If they are cocky, that's their problem, not ours.

Doug Flutie

I was just disappointed. You know, Adam has been a big part of this team for a number of years and his game-winning kicks, Super Bowl kicks, and all that, so he will be missed by his teammates, but it's just the nature of the business. He will be forever etched in the memories of New England sports fans.

I don't wish for anything. Wishing for a million dollars feels greedy. I just wish for the best for me.

Kipper is a confident guy right now back there and, defensively, they're one of the best teams in the league. Their identity is they're not going to score four or five goals, they're going to score two or three, but it's going to be enough to win.

Mike Gansey

Kevin is one of the best all-around players in the conference. He's obviously one of the best shooters and his inside play has improved this season. Kevin is a big part of our team.

Yvonne Strahovski

I guess I am a bit of a traditionalist.

I'm excited about this project because it ties in all the pieces of knowledge about water into one package.

What you have to look at, any one vehicle in a category can do well, but does it exhaust the category?

Marguerite Young

I think the category between fiction and non-fiction is nothing. The poetry of non-fiction is as fabulous as any poetry you could ever write in fiction. Poets have greatly influenced me. The only difference between the novel as poem and the lyric as poem is the difference in length.

Randy Carlyle

He fits into the same category as the rest of our hockey club. We weren't good enough, and he was part of it. He wasn't as sharp as he needs to be, and the team wasn't as sharp as it needs to be.

Paul Austin

If you look at the fragrance market, the category has been fairly static in terms of growth. It hasn't grown enormously over the last few years.

In the first half of the year, we saw our category growth rates slow down in the U.S. as higher prices impacted consumption.

Alexander Solzhenitsyn

In our country, the lie has become not just a moral category but a pillar of the State

Noam Chomsky

By very conservative estimates, Turkish repression of Kurds in the 1990s falls in the category of Kosovo.

Dr. Cartter

If pandemics were hurricanes, 1918 was a Category 5.

But you do have to have jobs for people that fit that category - not everybody in the state is going to be a computer scientist.

Greg Oden

He was like, 'Big G, what up? Who you walking with?' ... I said, 'Nobody. I'm just sightseeing.' He was like, 'Get in.' He was going to a party, so I rode with him, then he had his driver drop me off.

The idea of being able to win all three of these races with three different drivers has just been fantastic. I'm gonna put some of this in the bank.

Paul Scheuring

I wouldn't be surprised if you saw something like 'Prison Break,' colon, and a few other words. But it's not going to be 'Prison Broke.

Rex Stout

To read of a detective's daring finesse or ingenious stratagem is a rare joy.

William Wordsworth

And often, glad no more, We wear a face of joy because We have been glad of yore.

Sara Zarr

The world was full of beauty. She wanted to grab hold of it and take it down into her bones. Yet always it seemed beyond her grasp. Sometimes only by a little, like now. The thinnest membrane. Usually, though, by miles. She couldn’t expect to be that kind of happy all the time. She knew that. But sometimes you could. Sometimes you should be allowed a tiny bit of joy that should stay with you for more than five minutes. That wasn’t too much to ask. To have a moment like this, and be able to hold on to it. To cross that membrane, and feel alive.

Sarah Ban Breathnach

Roosevelt's declaration that Americans had 'nothing to fear but fear itself' was a glorious piece of inspirational rhetoric and just as gloriously wrong.

Troy Polamalu

I became a millionaire overnight by signing a piece of paper. I made more money in that one second than my entire family did in their lifetime.
