Hudson Quotations

I myself was born beside a river - the Avon in Sarum. So when I first encountered New York's great harbor and the Hudson River as a teenager, and came to understand their historic canal and railroad links to the vast spaces of the Midwest, I felt both the thrill of a new adventure and a deep sense of homecoming.

I've also committed my time and resources to many local organizations like Christmas in April, Catholic Community Services, and Hudson County Meals on Wheels.

I've worked in the Inuit hamlets of the west coast of Hudson Bay since 1994. Over that time I've been very moved by both the pace of social change there - the loss of traditional ways of seeing the world, the affinity for and comfort with the land - and by the social disarray that change of this pace produces.

In the springtime, we have softshell crab from Maryland, which I'd never had until I came to America. In the summer and early fall, we have striped bass, 'stripeys,' which come all the way up the Hudson River but mostly gather in the sound at the tip of Long Island, off Montauk.

I was born in New York City but grew up across the Hudson River in Alpine, New Jersey.

I'd worked for, during one period, for a PR firm, and for a while Rock Hudson was a client of ours, so I knew him well, and I knew when he had AIDS, that he had AIDS, but I would not write about that.

Captain Richard Phillips of the good ship Maersk Alabama - and Sully Sullenberger splashing down his crippled airliner in the Hudson River - broke through the poisonous smog of economic depression and Wall Street skullduggery with a reminder that pure individual heroism is a daily occurrence if we know where to look for it.

I ride my bike almost every day here in New York. It's getting safer to do so, but I do have to be fairly alert when riding on the streets as opposed to riding on the Hudson River bike path or similar protected lanes.

One of the reasons that New York became great was that it's serviced by many, many different rivers and waterways. You have the Atlantic Ocean connected virtually right to it, and it's serviced by the East River and the Hudson River and lots of tributaries.

Mulder surprised me more than Hudson. I wasn't surprised that Hudson got traded because we only had him for a year more. We had Mulder for a couple more. Billy is not one to have a couple good years and then completely start over. He saw an opportunity to get some quality guys and he jumped on it. It's really paid off. It's pretty amazing.

One of my first achievements in Congress was enactment of the Hudson River Habitat Restoration Act back in 1996.

Nick Kennedy is an exceptional talent whose recent selection for England A indicates his potential at the top level. James Hudson is a young man that I have worked with before. He is a true professional and a good 'team' player.

When I look at the Hudson River, I can't help but feel overwhelmed by its beauty and responsible for its protection.

Menendez has a fund raiser, and basically everyone donates to him. It's the way of business in Hudson County.

Menendez is the undisputed party boss in Hudson County, and we're going to be talking a lot about ethics reform.

Making it easier for people to travel throughout the metropolitan region includes giving them confidence about knowing how to use mass transit. And because thousands of people travel in and out of New York City every day to the Hudson Valley, Connecticut and New Jersey, it makes perfect sense for us to take a broad, regional approach.

I can't fault our girls over their effort. It's tough when you're playing (the Hudson twins). Both players are all-around players, and the rest of the team feeds off that.

I feel very comfortable with where we are with the Hudson United conversion that we could look at banks right now.

Having Shaun and Hudson and Matt anchor the team is very comforting. To have a setter that can get all the hitters going early in a match will be huge for us. We've got weapons this year, and we've just got to use them.

Having obtained control of the New York Central, the Hudson River, and the Harlem railroads, Commodore Vanderbilt now decided in the summer of 1867 to go after the Erie, of which Drew was nominally in possession, although no one knew when he owned a majority of the stock or when he was temporarily short of it.

We're obviously disappointed with the loss. We had a lot of close matches. Give Hudson a lot of credit to win those close matches.

We're one of the banks in the Hudson Valley that can do any deal, no matter how large, no matter how small.

I already met Orlando Hudson and he's kind of taken me under his wing. He and my brother are pretty tight, so he's going to show me the ropes a little bit.

Hudson can hit. He can squeeze, too, ... He could have gone two more innings.

Hudson had four, five pitches he threw for strikes. He mixed them up the whole time.

Hudson is 83-4 when given a four-run lead. Our goal today was to keep it to three runs or less to give us a chance to win.

Hudson is the Opening Day starter of the future, and as long as he's here, he's going to continue being the Opening Day starter.

Hudson was completely filthy today. He's right on. If he can carry it right on into the regular season, we're in business. That's about as good as it gets.

Hudson was outstanding on short rest, one of the best games he's pitched all year. Good control. He was in total command.

Hudson will recall all product that originated at the Columbus, Neb., plant, destroy all product they have on hand at that plant and immediately cease operations there, until they've adopted far more stringent safety standards that we have specifically laid out for them based on what we have found in our investigation,

He had to come here while negotiations were ongoing. The Hudson was the jugular vein of the Revolution,

There is a part of the country west of the Hudson River. I would think having fresh faces in the postseason is a good thing.

Listening to Mr. Bettman, they're going to continue to crack down on all the obstruction and stick fouls that's been called all season. The old days of the Hudson Bay Rules, just tackling and grabbing and holding, won't be there. So we'll continue to see the five, six power plays a game.

I said it's going to take a couple of breaks and someone's going to have to bust one long. That was the Hudson that I had seen in previous years in the American League with a good sinking fastball. He was keeping the ball down in the zone and just didn't give us much. And sure enough, we got something going. And Lance (Berkman) comes up with a big boom. Then of course Ausmus with a big boom, too.

I might be playing in a summer league at Hudson Valley, getting in shape for next season. I want to work on my consistency. There were times that we needed that big three and I missed it. Consistency is the thing.

I'm in my apartment in trendy Tribeca. I've been down here for 37 years, from before it was a fashionable neighbourhood. It's a wonderful place; it looks over the Hudson River. I can see 30 miles into New Jersey. My landlord would like me to die because the rent is very low. I'm trying to outlive him. He can get a lot more if I disappear.

Our biggest problem is getting across the Hudson River.

I think it's remarkable for a team to go on the road at Hudson and then go on the road at Mayfield and do the job they have done. It will be nice to get home on our field next week, but winning three of these four road games was quite an achievement for us.

The only way they are capturing them is by profiling. That's exactly what has to be happening in Hudson and New Ipswich, it's not the situation that they happen to arbitrarily find them.

To beat a pitcher the caliber of Tim Hudson is a big boost for us. This is what good teams do.

Tradition and sports intertwine at West Point, where the Academy overlooks the Hudson River. The full-dress cadet parade is a must before kickoff, and the Long Gray Line performs precision drills and patriotic music in full dress on The Plain. Tailgating at Buffalo Soldier Field is serious, with candelabras and champagne.

We do believe it's a terribly important step to attracting more travelers to the Hudson Valley.

When Rhett went down he picked up the rope and was unbelievable in the second half, ... He has waited his time and when Ben Hudson unfortunately went down he grabbed his opportunity with both hands.

We wanted to win Metro to continue our legacy. It's keeping the tradition going that was passed on from (former players) Jamal (Crawford), Rod (Stewart), D. Hudson and David King. It's all about passing the torch and keeping it going.

Whether it's veterans' disability claims, infrastructure projects, dam safety, or helping our farmers, what I am focused on is being useful for folks in the Hudson Valley.

When we are talking about Stewart in Orlando, it doesn't mean much to people there. A good portion of our traffic is coming from there and the Hudson Valley definitely hits home.

Where I would normally see the Hudson River and World Financial Center below me was nothing but a fireball against my glass, ... Just complete flames, swirling.

Three- to six-day workshops are scheduled year-round at the historic Greenville Arms 1889 Bed & Breakfast Inn in upstate New York's scenic Hudson Valley/Catskills region. Choose from watercolor, oil, acrylic, pastel, drawing and collage, plus fiber art and quilting. Instructors are nationally recognized artists.

Eagles are no longer shot or poisoned, and their ecosystem is DDT-free. However, the specter of habitat loss and human disturbance still casts a shadow over our Hudson Valley bald eagle population.

At some point on the Hudson River, you might have 154 miles of fiber-optic cable that connects remote sensors to a central point. For researchers, that would be an invaluable source of information. For students, it would mean they could sit down at a personal computer and type in latitude, longitude and depth of water and actually see on their screens what's happening in the river.

The size of this endeavor alone warrants this modest extension, ... When viewing these environmental issues, the impact on our infrastructure and community and, also significantly, the visual considerations along the majestic Hudson River, the time allowed thus far is clearly and grossly inadequate.

The stories of the Brooklyn Bridge and the Golden Gate already had been well-told by others, both on film and in books, ... But here was this remarkable, all-but-unknown story about Gustav Lindenthal and Othmar Ammann ... and how they fought each other to realize the dream of bridging the Hudson with what would be the longest bridge in the world.

I've seen Tim Hudson since '99 and I thought Holby might need another day. If Ramirez had been pitching, he would have been in there.

Something special, Hudson getting back-to-back complete games. Andruw gave us what we needed today.

With our increases in passenger traffic, it's the perfect time to bring Hudson News on board.

Some folks like to get awayTake a holiday from the neighborhoodHop a flight to Miami BeachOr to HollywoodBut I'm talking a GreyhoundOn the Hudson River LineI'm in a New York state of mind.

A yearly entrainment of approximately 53 million fish, eggs and larvae is a significant adverse impact to the Hudson River fishery.

As one comes down the Henry Hudson Parkway along the river in the dusk, New York is never real; it is always fabulous.

You wouldn't even think of swimming in the Hudson 20 years ago,

Our defense played better tonight. Hudson hardly took any shots inside the paint tonight and we limited them to three offensive rebounds, all in the fourth quarter.

I married a musician, music is everywhere I turn, thankfully. Yeah, a lot of times the ideas for a movie, or even the way I cast a movie, comes from driving around in my car and listening to tapes and thinking, 'Kate Hudson floating on a Joni Mitchell song.' That's a good scene.

I knew 'Almost Famous' wasn't playing in theaters at that long length. And really, it wasn't one of those terrible squabbles that you read about, where people want to change their name or anything. Our toughest discussion was, did Kate Hudson dance too long? It wasn't that big of a deal.

Every week, coach Hudson and coach Smith come up with a plan to stop whatever is the most potent part of an offense, ... We don't really change much (from week to week), we just know what we've got to do.

I guess what I like most about NY is that it feels like home to me. I was born here in 1977 and have lived here, on and off, my whole life. I feel very connected to NY. I love how much it has to offer, though it still feels small and cozy. There are so many amazing things to see here: incredible art, just about every film, amazing music, all kinds of interesting people. I like to ride my bike on the Hudson River . I like that I can walk my dog around two blocks and he meets about 20 other dogs to play with. I like that I can get a turkey sandwich at 4 in the morning if I want to. A beautiful night out in NYC can be any night because anything can happen. It is spontaneous and surprises you all the time.

In the past, Nate last year and I'm sure kids who have played at Hudson in the past, you can always look to the fact that the school hasn't been successful. But you can't do that this year, so I don't get it. I wish I did. It's not an exact science. I know that.

Hinson just doubled up on top of him, and I looked up and the stands were clearing. Everything was happening. I dove between them to get them apart, and I looked up and (another official) Jimmy Hudson had the coaches at center court. We met out at center court and the coaches agreed with us that there wasn't any way we were going to complete the game.

The voters of the Hudson Valley deserve strong representation from a leader who will stand up to the special interests, make the tough decisions and do the right thing when it really counts, ... If I don't stand up for the taxpayers, who will?

It's always tough to win at the end of the road. I'm just so proud of these kids and this team. They were the first team in school history to beat Cleveland. It's tough to deal with tonight, but Lufkin Hudson is a tough team. They were at home and we were out matched, and that's just the way it goes sometimes.

The goal would be to compete with the Hudson County powers like North Bergen and St. Peter's Prep. That's the dream. I'd also like to see us qualify for the state playoffs. I knew it would take some time and hard work to get there. But we have the determination to get there. Nothing is going to stop us.

The idea of connecting the waters of the Chesapeake with those of the Ohio had been broached by George Washington before the Revolution, and he had also prophesied the union of the Hudson and Lake Erie by canal.

The city remains concerned about several events that have occurred at the Hudson Duster, and we'll continue to monitor the situation.

The Hudson is very blessed with an enormous number of religious organizations churches, synagogues, mosques, monasteries and they are the holders of moral solutions, ... We think that the greatest issue of our time is the environment, because that's the issue that can save or destroy us.

The Hudson Valley (north of New York City) has been very hard hit. There are tens of thousands of homes without power. The commuter rail lines (north of the city) have been really washed out, so it's going to take some time to get them back to normal.

This Hudson kid is awfully, awfully good. Our guys hung in there, kept battling, kept it in the 10-12 range. I couldn't be prouder of these guys, they've had a tremendous season and came in here and did their best tonight.

It is vital that we give guys like (Pieter) Dixon and (James) Hudson games as we will need them when the autumn internationals start.

It's mostly for the Hudson Valley to work on these new developments.

There really hasn't been much Arctic high pressure up there to come down, and what has come down has been a glancing blow. Even Canada isn't that cold. You have to go way up by Hudson Bay ? and way up in northern Alaska, to find anything well below zero.

It's filled with water from the Hudson River, and we have to shake it up.

This is the largest deal we've ever done at Hudson since the company was founded in 1998, ... It will also be one of the biggest deals done in 2005 (nationally) in terms of the tax credits it generates.

This is a very young team, so it was good to come away with a point against a very good Hudson team. I think the kids showed tonight that they can play with anyone. Hopefully, this gives them confidence and leads to more wins this season.

If I do that, I am going to win 90 percent of those games. It's frustrating, obviously, but I know if I do this and give us a chance to win every night, we aren't going to always be facing Hudson at his best.

If everything works right, Hudson will open. It's Hudson's turn this year.

I'm a fervent foe of water pollution, whether it is our own Hudson River or Philadelphia's tap water.

All that is within me cries out to go back to my home on the Hudson River
