Bouncing Quotes
He's going to have days like that. I've had them and I'm going to have some more. The thing that would be encouraging is him bouncing back and having one of those tremendous days where you say, 'That's the guy that we're used to seeing' and the guy we want to see. Those are the things you really want to encourage, instead of dwelling on some negatives.
-
Balanced Quotes
Historically when weve gone into a program like this, weve had engine developments that start right off the bat. Instead were saying, lets focus our new propulsion development on much smaller-scale efforts. Lets also have back up plans in case it doesnt work out. Its a balanced risk versus reward that weve laid out here.

Carry Quotes
He's a kid who wants to help carry us -- which is commendable -- and of late it hasn't happened. It's like we say about hitters who want to go out there and do too much. The same is true of pitchers, and Jeremy, unfortunately, still falls into that rut of -- instead of being a pitcher -- reverts sometimes to being a thrower.

Drop Quotes
Hopefully we can rush the passer a little more and not drop (into coverage) as much. The one down point of last year was everyone saying that we couldn't get enough sacks or pressure on the quarterback. Hopefully with a little fine tuning to our scheme we'll have a little more opportunities to rush the passer instead of dropping.

Approach Quotes
He?s been a quality kid and obviously he gets the chance to come home, which I think helped him a little bit and was probably fun for him. We had him in a spot where we were down 2-1 and we hit a fly ball that was a poor approach on our part, instead of hitting the ball up the middle or the other way like we preach.

Averages Quotes
He's going through that natural period where people want to nitpick the very few negatives he may have instead of extolling all his positives, ... And in a little over 31 minutes a game he averages 18 and 8. He comes to work every day. He's totally selfless. Yet some want to badger the guy about whatever perceived shortcomings he has. I find that unfortunate because if they spent half the time looking at all his positives it would be a much better story.

Coaches Quotes
I feel that text messaging defeats the purpose of the rule. Coaches aren't supposed to be talking to recruits on the phone, but they're still communicating with text-messaging. The spirit of the rule is so kids are not constantly talking on the phone, but now they're constantly text-messaging, and it's time consuming. They are constantly doing this stuff instead of whatever they have to do or want to do.

Aggressive Quotes
He has to be aggressive and be slow, if that makes any sense. He's gotta do that. Because when he does, he sees the court so much better. He has improved his passing so much this year. He's seeing things a little better, instead of it being a blur - because he's so quick that it is a blur sometimes.

Defend Quotes
We try to get fast with our hands instead of fast with our feet, and that gets us in foul trouble. Then we're trying to defend them with all guards out there, it just wasn't going to work. I take full responsibility for this loss. I did not do a good job of preparing the girls for this game and the defense that we needed to run.

Ask Quotes
The people on the record were all into making a good project instead of flaunting their own egos. The horn players would be like, 'You need to take me down in the mix,' and Dan would be like, 'That's the first time I've ever heard someone ask for less of himself!' Everyone there knew that this was a special thing, none of us had done anything like it before, and we all wanted to put that excitement across.
-
Bridge Quotes
The people we have in charge of the (county's) Road and Bridge Department are doing an outstanding job. But I remember when commissioners used to go out and drive through their county roads, instead of waiting on a disgruntled resident to call in and complain. That hasn't happened in Precinct 2 in many, many years.

Buildings Quotes
My office has two buildings that function like the right and left sides of the brain. There's a room where everything is being edited for an upcoming project, but you can pull out of that into a tranquil space to work in a different, more solitary medium. It's an architectural unfolding of the process instead of just one chaotic structure.

Car Quotes
I went to Coachella once, and it was only to go see Leonard Cohen. I got in the car and sat through all the crazy traffic in L.A. to get there - instead of a two hour drive, it takes, like, six hours. Then I watched his set and turned around and left. I just so wanted to see him perform in the desert.
-
Approach Quotes
I watched the film a couple of times and it was an average performance. I thought I was a little tentative at first. I think I was more nervous about being in the right spot instead of making something happen. There were a lot of things I could have done better: filling my gaps properly, taking a little more physical approach to the game.

Almost Quotes
Many families are frustrated and overwhelmed by working hard only to see their debt grow instead of their savings. This is a large group of people who are one late payment away from receiving punitive default rates of almost 30% on credit cards and other loans. If you are at the edge, default rates will be devastating. If your credit card bill comes at the end of the month when there is no money left, contact your credit card company to change your billing schedule to fit with your pay schedule.

Answer Quotes
Lacking a profit motive, workers in the government by and large have a different work ethic from those in private industry. When they could make one call, federal workers take a meeting. When they could find an answer on the Internet, they form a study committee. Instead of appointing one supervisor, they appoint five.

Ability Quotes
Linux users now have the ability to quickly recover from a system crash, without having to resort to cumbersome or intensive procedures. Small and mid-sized organizations are increasingly taking advantage of Linux-based servers; providing them with the means to get back in business within minutes, instead of hours or days, means they no longer have to endure long periods of downtime when failures occur. This is key to their very ability to do business.

Change Quotes
That change devastated restaurant owners. It shifted the spending patterns of many restaurant patrons. Instead of taking their clients and potential customers to lunch, they would send them flowers instead. Or, as an alternative, they would rent a hotel conference room, have lunch sent in and roll the cost into the hotel bill, which is still fully deductible.
