Except Quotations | Page 5

I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.

I am really, really against closing and doing away with that Greensboro jail, ... It's not a modern jail, but there's absolutely nothing wrong with that jail except that it's overcrowded.

I am responsible for everything except for my very responsibility, for I am not the foundation of my being. Therefore everything takes place as if I were compelled to be responsible. I am abandoned in the world... in the sense that I find myself suddenly alone and without help, engaged in a world for which I bear the whole responsibility without being able, whatever I do, to tear myself away from this responsibility for an instant.

I can't say much about that, except I was in the wrong place at the wrong time,

I am also an Emmy winning actress. Except that I gotta tell ya, it was for comedy and I've been practicing for most of my life because every job I've ever had they'd always say the same thing, 'Hey Lauper, what are ya, some kind of comedienne?' and who knew?

I don't think it is any different from what it was, except that the method is now familiar so you can't set up some internal shock situation.

I don't think it's appropriate -- except when they're very, very young -- for parents to let their kids win. If you're looking at Trivial Pursuit, maybe that means giving the parents harder questions than the children. You're still playing the game, and everyone is participating at their best level.

Fort McMurray is the second biggest city in Newfoundland -- except it's in Alberta. It's a lot earlier in the day out there. That party will go on even longer.

For the wickedness of evil minded thieves, who secretly prowl over this earth, cannot be restrained except by punishment.

I don't expect this to happen overnight.

I don't think you guys ever heard me say I wasn't pleased with the way he was playing until the last game. Even with all the other stuff that's going on every other week, I've never said anything except I was pleased with the way he's been playing and way he's trying. The last game, he was not aggressive. He shot the ball seven times. He deferred. I expressed that. That's one game.

If Black folks want to blame someone for this tragedy they only need to look in the mirror. Mayor Nagin has blamed everyone else except himself. The Mayor failed in his duty to evacuate and protect the people of New Orleans. Our prayers go out to the families of the deceased. Hopefully this will help Black people realize the folly of depending on the government or leaders and serve as a notice to avert future tragedies in other cities.

I give those guys credit over there, ... They have a worse record. They're battling. And that's what we should be doing, to be honest with you. That's the kind of way you're supposed to play. At this point, they have nothing to play for except for what you're supposed to play for: It's another game. That's the job, and they seem to be doing a better job of it than we are right now.

But what for the generality I call a light or gentle hand, is at the same time as light as a feather, and yet firm, except in extraordinary cases.

Celebrities like John Wayne and Willie Nelson used to stay here, so we took that idea and ran with it.

Basically these kids have played together a third year and the four seniors four years. This is third year Scott was part of the group.

I think they will be more focused then ever to accomplish that goal.

I had Jerry's posters hanging up all over my wall. It was a little surreal seeing him in here in camp. Then you get to know him and realize he's a guy just like you are, except he's an exceptional guy. I enjoyed having him around, and I know everyone else did, too. It was sad to see him go.

We're playing well. We hit the ball, and we got a little offense going early. Stephen (Roe) did a good job for us, except for that one pitch. From one through six or seven, we've been consistent. These guys are a pleasure, and I'm lucky to have them.

He didn't have anything to gain from that except doing the right thing.
