We were flat as can be going into districts.

Jim Furyk

He's a guy all the girls like and all the guys like. That normally doesn't happen. If the girls like a guy, then the guys think he's a sissy. And guys usually like someone all the girls can't stand. He's a popular guy who has won here, so I think that endears him to everyone.

It's interesting - in 'Fail Safe,' as well, they didn't back off. We were raised with kind of this spectrum of that Armageddon and lived under it, so those were probably the films. 'Fail Safe' sort of haunted me.

Lindsey Hunter

Going into the playoffs, our mentality has to be opposed from the regular season -- that we're going to shut you down. We still know we can score. Our identity is defense.

Richard Jenkins

Without social identity, there is, in fact, no society.

James Bennetts

I think what we're doing is going back to the way things were before Independence Air.

William Shatner

Although I'm a business major out of McGill University, I know nothing... but then I found out much later in life, nobody knows anything.

Twyla Tharp

Later in life, one of the compensations is gliding effortlessly into focus in a thing. Since it is who we are, anything that is not the focus or supportive thereof is just not us. Even outside issues, when they arise, are interesting in that they only help define the focus more clearly.

Waylon Jennings

I ain't got no reverse. I've learned, a little later in life, it works out pretty good to have one every once in a while.

Bob Reid

Planning for retirement is not something we can put off until a later date. The time to plan is now.

Brian Beckwith

His success is all to him. It's all a matter of how he thinks each night and how he prepares for each game.

Just to run down and double-team Shaq all over the place, it normally doesn't pay off.

Ursula K. Le Guin

We have been civilized for a thousand millennia. We have histories of hundreds of those millennia. We have tried everything. Anarchism, in all its forms, with the rest. But I have not tried it.
