Jason Quotations

I try to penetrate the lane like Steve Nash, pass like Jason Kidd, and handle the ball like Allen Iverson. Remember, I said 'try to'.

I personally have dealt with any adversity in my life with humor. That's why I told America to 'Read my hips!' on 'Dancing With the Stars' or was happy to play along with Jason Alexander and Jerry Seinfeld in the great restaurant scene on 'Seinfeld.'

I am not a photojournalist and certainly not used to the Jason Bourne type stuff that some photographers have to deal with.

'Hatching Pete' was so much fun. Mitchel Musso and Jason Dolley, as well as Josie Loren, who was also in '17 Again' with Sterling and Zac Efron and Matthew Perry are in it. We just had a blast filming.

Neil Gaiman swooped into my life though another friend, Jason Webley, who knew we were fans of each other's work and introduced us via email. Neil and I, like me and Ben, just hit it off instantly.

'Rosemary's Baby' is still one of my favorite movies of all time. The idea of her being impregnated with the devil is just so frightening. I'm actually going to work on a movie in February, called 'Mercy,' from Jason Blum, who produced the 'Paranormal Activity' movies, and there is a similar theme to 'Rosemary's Baby' in the movie.

Jason Lee is the most famous actor from Hawaii I can think of.

I adore Eddie Kaye Thomas and Jason Biggs. Eddie was the only one who called me when they were doing 'American Reunion' and told me, 'You need to do this.'

I actually went to see 'Rushmore,' and I came late, and I missed myself. It was great, that scene. I caught that scene the other day on TV, funny enough, the first scene that you see with Jason Schwartzman and myself, where we talk about his grades. That's a brilliant scene, and I have to say, we play it brilliantly.

I truly loved Jason Reitman. I was there on his first film, 'Thank You For Smoking,' and I'd go work with him to do anything.

I'm not really in touch with those 'Seinfeld' lads except Jason Alexander.

I wanted to like 'Up in the Air' - I like Jason Reitman - but Vera Farmiga left me cold.

The one thing I haven't done that would be so cool would be, like, an action movie. Like a real action, Jason Bourne movie or something.

So we had psychiatrists and counselors and therapists around the set regularly, especially for those scenes in which Jason would be dealing with a patient to make sure we were doing it all appropriately.

I'll say it, I love working with actors, I'm a fan of actors. They bring so much, and they can also break a movie, but when it works I give it all to the actors. I'll say it, I think that 'The Transporter' is great not because of my direction, it really is great because Jason Statham was great in it.

Before Jason Bourne, before Jack Ryan, there was Bond, James Bond, the original two-dimensional, world-saving secret agent.

Myself, Eric Wareheim, and Jason Woliner decided to start a Food Club where the three of us go to restaurants with a couple of other people. The three of us are the captains of the Food Club, so we have to wear the captains' hats.

I was lucky enough at Stanford to have Vic Fangio as the defensive coordinator for a year, and then Jason Tarver.

I'll never forget when me and Jason Matthews wrote the line, 'Don't be a tape player hater,' in 'Country Man,' I don't think I ever laughed harder. We didn't know where we were gonna put that in a song, but we knew we had to make it into a song. I just remember laughing and being so proud of such a goofy little line.

What do you remember about Jason Robinson? His feet. Not how improved he was under a high ball or his kicking skills. Everyone remembers those feet. He could go round you in a phone box.

On the court, Jason Collins is not a huge basketball star, but he has already claimed his place in civil rights history as the first openly gay athlete to play in one of the four major U.S. sports leagues.

One of the reasons I signed here was because of the way this team played on defense. Jason set the tone with some good catches.

I was right behind Jason Bright and got distracted, ran a bit wide and touched the wall,

I was surprised to see Sanchez trying to steal, especially because of the score (3-2), the fact he already was in scoring position at second and they had their No. 1 hitter in Jason Bay at the plate.

I would say at the end of the games if you went back and charted Jason Williams making shots in the last four minutes he's one of the best at making open shots. So you've got to have him on the court. While everybody says you've got take him off the court because it's a defensive thing, what do I do at the other end?

Obviously, we want Jason in the lineup but his health is the No. 1 concern.

One of the things hurting our offense right now is that we're pressing. Jason has to just keep doing what he's doing. Eventually, we'll get on track, and it will get easier for him to get pitches to hit.

Of course, from the team we had, I wasn't automatically thrilled, ... I was wondering what went wrong. But you think about the business of the N.B.A. and what we're here to do and you say, 'Jason will be great to run with, Jason will be a great point guard for us.' You move on from what you don't have.

Obviously, it took Jason a little bit of time to get his groove but I like the way he's been playing. We're going to need him to play that strong and even better in the playoffs. He's the type of guy that with one shot, he can find the back of the net. He's a shooter, he needs to go to those tough areas and he understands that.

Richard Jefferson is going to be more involved in Game 2. We know that Jason Kidd is going to be more involved from a scoring standpoint in terms of his aggressiveness. Carter, you can talk about his bad shooting, but he still had 31 points. He missed a lot of point-blank shots he normally makes. They're going to be more balanced in their attack.

Obviously this was an incredible Big East battle. We just said to ourselves, this is BIG EAST game No. 1 - it tells you what this league will be like...Timely shots by Allan Ray, Jason Frazier and Dante Cunningham kept us in the game. Every time Louisville made runs at us, those guys made big plays. Game number one in the Big East, that's what it's going to be like.

I have been wanting to do beauty for years and to pair with an international beauty company. It will solidify the image of Jason Wu as a world. All my shows have a distinctive hair and makeup look. It feels so natural for me; the woman who wears my clothes would have my makeup as part of her beauty regime.

We made a deal yesterday and we are very happy that we own the movie, ... We're delighted that we own the movie and we are looking forward to working with Jason Reitman, he is a talented young filmmaker.

Kevin got some playing time last week and did a nice job. Today, we didn't hesitate one moment to put him in when Jason had to come out. He responded the way we hoped he would. In other years, when our top rusher went down, we'd be in trouble. Today, we didn't miss a beat.

I would say I think Jason is going to lose and Freddy will win. I don't know why. I just feel that Freddy is more maniacal and thinks more than Jason does.

I would say that if Jason Taylor had played in a 3-4 system somewhere, he would have been a Hall of Fame outside linebacker. There is no question about that based on the athletic ability the guy has. He's smart and he's got great instincts to learn things better than I ever hoped for. It gives us an opportunity to move him around and use him in a lot of different ways.

He is the Transporter. Without Jason Statham, this movie would be a straight-to-video ... horrible film. At least the first one, you know, I was so afraid, when I read the screenplay, of what it was. Then Jason came in.

I couldn't possibly lose that fight, knowing that Jason was waiting for me to come back with the belt,

I am sorry my wife is dead... I love her to death ...We are all dying together ... tell my son Jason and all of them that I love them... I love you bye.

I can't say enough about Jason Williams. Boy, is he a tough player. He's relentless. He scores inside and out.

Four guys had him pinned down on the sideline, ... He stopped on a dime and made a move that broke the ankles of one of their defenders. Then he got some nice blocks down the field, including one from Jason Myers.

I don't think he showed us the true Jason Dubois when we got him. I'd like to think this is the real guy, but the truth is he's probably somewhere in between.

I expect Jason to come into Kansas State and have a very, very good freshman season. I think he is going to have the opportunity to contribute immediately. I think he can average between 30-32 minutes per game and double figures in both points and rebounds. I think he will be a great fit for a physical conference in the Big 12 because he is a very physical player. He is only going to get stronger, tougher and better as a player under coach Huggins' guidance.

I don't think you guys realize sometimes how connected we really are in that locker room. We are a family. We lost a brother. The only consolation we have is that he left us making sure no one can ever say a bad thing about him, because Jason was such a good person.

I don't want Jason Bay to do anything other than be the player he's been here for the last two years.

I believe there still is lots of good to Jason Berryman, and that's what makes it even harder to say good-bye and part ways. If you continue to make mistakes and make us look bad, you are going to do it on your time and not mine.

I felt like they gave up. Jason White as the leader should have kept them going on the sidelines. I can guarantee that we wouldn't get run over like that.

I felt like I tagged him pretty good, so that's what stunned me. I think Jason knew it, too. He started walking back to the dugout. Everyone makes mistakes.

What I saw during the postseason, and we talked with Lou Piniella about this on the air, is what power pitching can do for you. The Astros got hits and scratched out runs and had some Minute Maid Park home runs by (Lance) Berkman and Jason Lane, but the difference (in the series) to me is what power pitching can do in October.

He's a great gentleman, and he's very funny. My girlfriends' husbands try to be like Jason now.

He's a big kid. It's tough for a kid like that (to play back-to-back games), just like it's tough for our Jason Martin.

Having Jason back there helps me out because we're thinking more on the same page than having other guys behind the plate that don't know your stuff.

I addressed the team after the game and told the sophomores that this experience was something that you can't replace. I told the seniors they laid great groundwork, and we're really going to miss Jason Square. Our future's bright.

He used to go around guys. Now he's trying to go through guys more. (Against) defenders who are willing to take the punishment, like Jason Collins in New Jersey, that's where you see where Shaq has lost some of his side-to-side mobility.

He was the best player on the ice. Jason showed a lot of poise for a young guy to be put in a position like that. The pressure did not bother him one iota. He didn't feel a thing. He just looked at it as a great opportunity and that's how it turned out for him.

(He) didn't even really make a bad pitch to Jason Bay.

He watches what Jason and Brian do or don't do and in film sessions he's a sponge, too. He picks up things coach (Ryan) teaches and preaches and he's starting to show the benefit of all that education.

He has been through this before and he understands the importance of representing your country. I think Jason is one of the best players who's ever strapped on the catching mask. He understands the game, he loves to represent his team, whether it's the Red Sox or Team USA. I'll be very anxious to work with a guy like that.

He was always the first guy Jason White would talk to when he came off the field. Josh has a really good way with those guys and I'm sure he'll step right in here tomorrow night and do the same thing.

He's had a very consistent year, with the exception of the last couple of weeks, and I think he's getting worn down a little bit. He's got a little bit of an injury, so we're trying to work through that, but it is what it is, because he has to play now with Jason out.

Good hitters don't tweak too much and they adjust very well. They try to recapture a feeling. With Jason and his makeup, (a slump) isn't going to last long. Good hitters can figure things out quickly, and he's a good hitter.

He's definitely into the game. He's very intense. Both of those guys are. I guess something was said, and Jason kind of snapped.

Whatever Jason does, he acts professionally. He's everything I dream of being.

He might be only the second kid (after Jason Richardson) I would advise to do that, just because, that way, there'd be no questions unanswered.

He does what needs to be done. With Jason it's more about what needs to be done than what needs to be said.

He has reaffirmed his commitment. There are some things Jason and I needed to address. Jason is back with the program.

Jordan Godby and Jason Ward started in the middle. They helped tremendously. Herscher couldn't run up the middle.

My team played their guts out. It all goes back to hitting shots. We got some big free throws from Jason Wills. Leslie Powell played the best game of his career. ... The guys just came up big tonight. We had to mix things up a little bit just to wake some guys and it worked. Everyone contributed.

I was concerned that our energy would be used up by that run we had in the second (quarter), because whenever you go on a run and you're down by that much you can get really tired. But Jason hit that three off the bat and that got us right back where we needed to be.

Kyle was very clever tonight, and he did some things with Jason at midfield to create some opportunities on goal.

Matt had a good season. I don't want to compare him to Jason Townsend. Jason is the best wrestler we've ever had (at Rising Sun). Is Matt going to match that? He has the potential to. You can't compare those things, but Matt's working toward that. Hopefully, he will continue and match (Jason's accomplishments).

that evening with 30-year-old Jason Moran. It turns out they've played together before -- on McPartland's show, at the Monterey Jazz Festival, and on what McPartland calls ''several casual dates here and there.

I said, 'You have Vance Wilson, you have Jason Phillips, and you have Mike Piazza. What am I going to do there?' He told me, 'Just trust me,'

Records are made to be broke and I think Jason can do it. With all due respect to Jamie, I think if Jason has a big day he should be able to get it done.

Playing behind Jason Kidd , or just to go against him every day in practice, you can learn. I'm really excited about it.

Playing that type of hockey and that type of role, it's tough night in and night out. Jason is just a competitor in every way and works hard, plays hard and I think will be an energy asset.

Part of the things that we are doing is because of his unique abilities. I would say that if Jason Taylor had played in a 3-4 system somewhere, he would have been a Hall of Fame outside linebacker. He's smart, and he's got great instincts to learn things better than I ever hoped. It gives us an opportunity to move him around and use him in a lot of different ways.

Our question marks are the other three spots in the line. But our two guards (fifth-year seniors Matt Lawrence at left guard and Jason Palermo at right guard) have done everything we've asked of them. I feel very confident they'll be excellent at their positions.

Our main leader (last year) was Jason (Ellis), who is probably one of the better players to ever play at Boise State, but he was one of the quieter ones, too. That was tough on our team.

People like Aphex Twin, Jason Pierce, Jarvis Cocker and William Orbit are actively showing their interest in a wider field of music. Jarvis and I met on a benefit for an extraordinary man called LaMonte Young, the father of minimalism, who worked with John Cale and shared a loft with Yoko Ono.

I saw the puck was loose, so in that situation you just start digging. Whoever touched it last, it doesn't matter. Jason has a better celebration than I do, so I'm glad they gave it to him.

I saw Jason coming off the edge and it was just instinct, trying to make a move and make him miss. And I did that. I thought he fell. I was running. I slowed down a little bit and then I felt somebody clip my feet and it was Jason Taylor.

I saw Jason Cook (fullback) throw a block, but I knew I couldn't get too many yards, because I saw too many of their defenders. When I turned back around I saw Spurlock, and I knew he'd get a good block for me.

Jay talks about guys being superstars, regardless of how they are out on the court. He always puts Jason in that category. He's still a leader on this team.

I think the quarterback change has been a positive one. I think the team has rallied around the new guy, and I think Jason showed a lot of promise and a lot of poise in a number of situations.

Last pitcher to get a hit, 0 for spring. Jason (Marquis) loves rubbing it in.

I remember when I went there (on a recruiting visit) the coach (Steve Leach) said, 'Hey, man, you want a Heisman (Trophy) candidate throwing you the ball?' That was Jason Thomas, I think, playing quarterback. I told them I didn't want to do that, and I ended up going to Iowa State.

I remember when I first met Jason Reitman with the 'Whiplash' script; he quickly became a mentor figure who guided me through the process and also protected me and made sure that when it came time to actually make 'Whiplash,' I was able to make exactly the movie I wanted to make.

Jesse Wood got a win for us. He's been very consistent and he's wrestled very well. And Jason battled to get a win. Overall, we just didn't compete very well. We are better than what we showed tonight.

Jason and Barrett ran faster than last year. We have (2 minutes, 18 seconds) between (runners) one and five. We continue to improve but we still need the time gap between one and seven closer.

Jason and David are both previous Bathurst winners, and we believe that each driver's vast experience will ensure that the CAT Falcon is once again fighting to reach that elusive top step of the podium at Mount Panorama,

Jason and his family are first and foremost in our prayers during this difficult time,

Jason and I had worked together in the past ... and we ended up working together again at the Arsenal.

Jason and I literally go out the door with our amps and guitars and walk across the street. It's pretty cool.

Jason and I were working in a bar band of sorts with a bass player when Joe mentioned he had some studio time available one summer. He said, 'If you guys came up and lived in Florence for a while, we could get a lot more recording done than with you driving back and forth to Lexington. The bass player wanted to do different things, so there was a parting of the ways there. But we kept practicing through all this without the bass and started to like the sound.

Jason Baker did a great job. I mean, that's a tough kid. He was more aggressive and offensive on his feet, and keeps getting better every time.

Jason battled the whole game. He made plays at the end of the game that we really needed.

Jason Boyd was a guy I loved watching on Mark's Ohio Valley club last season. He played the game hard, and he played the game right. I look forward to that style of play that he'll bring to the Wild Things' fans.

Jason called me up that night and probably talked to me for an hour and a half. That was absolutely the most upset I've ever heard him . . . he was so upset. I can't even tell you the stuff he said because I've never heard Jason talk like that before.

Jason came into camp in much better condition this year.
