Lauren Quotations

The ward designs were co-created by myself and Lauren K. Cannon. She read how they were described in 'The Warded Man,' and we had long discussions about what sources to draw from for the symbols, drawing inspiration from Arabic, Japanese, Chinese and Sanskrit.

I'd love to play a femme fatale in a film noir. I'm thinking of one of those roles that Lauren Bacall or Bette Davis might have played. What I wouldn't like is to suddenly find myself being cast, as many senior actresses seem to be, as the abbess in a convent.

I'm a big Ralph Lauren girl, but I love vintage clothing. I like the whole western jeans and boots style. I love vintage T-shirts and flannels, and there's nothing like a great vintage sweatshirt.

I read a lot of science fiction, but I also mixed it up with a lot of other genres: crime, literary fiction, as well as nonfiction. Author-wise, I'm a fan of Stephen King, Lauren Beukes, Robert McCammon, Raymond Chandler, Greg Rucka, Ed Brubaker and Gail Simone, among many others.

There are many guys out there who look like me - you know, brunettes with long hair. There are thousands. But I think the difference is that I am a real polo player, who does endorsements for Ralph Lauren on the side, and I've always looked at it that way.

One of my co-workers at Ralph Lauren heard about the show, and when she got back to the office, said; Carson, you have to call Bravo. They're doing a show. You're perfect for it.

I definitely have a strong connection with Ralph Lauren because I've made so many friends there. But I love being an actor - and I think that's what I want to be.

I'm still single, but me and Lauren are really really really close friends.

I'm not a fashion architect. I don't dress in Ralph Lauren and Gucci. When I buy a suit, I buy it at J. Press. I have a blue blazer that I wear 80 percent of the time.

If you've got the body and the chutzpah, a pencil skirt is so sexy on older women. Look for ones that fall just below the knee. Think 1940s, cinched-in jackets - imagine you are Lauren Bacall on a date with Humphrey Bogart and you just absolutely have to wear very high heels.

This was 1978, when flying was still an occasion, a special grand event that took planning and care. I worked as a TWA flight attendant then. I stood in my Ralph Lauren uniform at the boarding door and smiled at the passengers through lips coated with lipstick that perfectly matched the stripe on my jacket. Mostly, the passengers smiled back.

I had a pregnancy that wasn't private... A lot of people had their opinions about it. They were surprised that I came up pregnant, which was a surprise to me, because I'm a woman, and women get pregnant, and Lauren comes first before the actress, so having my son was the best thing that ever happened to me.

I think my perception of my own life is different and the fact that Lauren and myself are together. I've never felt this free or happy and so that permeates onto my onstage persona and to my working environment.

I'm a boots girl. The most I've ever spent on clothing is a pair of Ralph Lauren boots that go over the knee but can also fold down.

I like how Ralph Lauren creates a mystical world through his clothing.

Designing is so easy - it's the business that is hard. That's why you really have to respect Ralph Lauren - look at what he's done. Anybody who can sustain themselves should be applauded.

My teammates gave me some really good passes and found me when I was open and Lauren was double-teamed. I credit them for finding me.

My heart and prayers have always gone out to him and Lauren and their family. They'll get through it. Tony's a strong guy.

People will want to follow Lauren because she's the type who will always get in there and do it first. She is a true leader.

Right now it's more important to have Lauren for the Conference Championships than to have her compete in the multi-events at Drake. It's unfortunate that she was invited to compete in the event, but we need to do what we can to nurse her back to health and have her ready to go in two weeks.

I'd like to wish Brittney and Lauren the best of luck in all their future endeavors.

There are times in practice when Lauren is as aggressive as anybody else on the floor. It just doesn't happen on a consistent basis yet. But she has four years.

Mr. Lauren and his family are going to put into the bank around $450 million after this offering, which is not a bad piece of loose change.

Molly and Lauren played well back on defense. We did a good job, but it wasn't enough.

Situations like that are when Lauren is in her domain. She's such a competitor and she refuses to get rattled. You can't teach that kind of composure.

Megan adds an element of speed to our team. Lauren has improved as a pitcher each year, and we look forward to good things from her this year.

She competed well and had long, hard matches. She and Lauren both played well in their matches.

She shut us down, then Lauren Atwood got a rocket single off of her to start the third and it showed everyone that we could hit off of her. We've really been hitting the ball well. Her hit opened the game. She's really worked hard and she's contributing every time I put her in the game.

Hannah and Lauren will add some much needed support for our girls team as we look towards defending our state title.

This was a good way to end the tournament for us. We were very aggressive at the plate. Everyone got a chance to play. We got outstanding performances from both Lauren (Hyland) and Val (Hackett).

But we may throw Lauren against them this weekend if we get to the finals of the (Capital City Invitational).

I have been blessed to have a great staff. Jay Ferguson has been around Jonathan Alder basketball forever and held all the school scoring records until Lauren broke them this season, and the girls have great respect for him. Bruce Gerber has been a great addition this season, especially in planning how to attack our opponents.

I look for our freshmen to contribute a lot in the relays. We also need them to get into the finals in their respective events, to knock other people out of position to score. Some of the younger athletes, like Lauren Scott , Steven Bach and Terrell Thompson , have the ability to do that. At the Big Ten meet, I tell all of our athletes to focus on beating bodies, not on jumping a certain distance or running a certain time. If you focus on beating people, those things will come.

That ball was really tagged. I was concerned then about Lauren keeping composure, but she bounced back just fine.

That fifth year helps a lot of players. They are more mature physically and mentally. Part of being a good player like Lauren is that teams try and take her out. With the exception of a couple of games, Lauren has been solid for us. She's so consistent; you know what you're going to get out of her every game.

Meg McMullen had a really big second half for us. We need to have people step up like that and not have to rely on Katie and Lauren to carry the load every game. We're coming to that point in the season where we need to develop some other options.

I thought in the second half we did a good job on the offensive boards, getting some second-shot opportunities. That gave us a few easier baskets. Kirby and Lauren did a good job in the post area. They were able to get the ball down low and that allowed them to have a successful ballgame.

I thought Jessica and Lauren did an outstanding job defensively on Wallace.

I think with Lauren and Kelsey we're going to have a nice 1-2 punch on the mound. We had to throw Lauren into the fire last year. She really grew up and continued to get better over the year. Kelsey throws hard. She seems to have five different pitches.

Lauren Aldrich played with a lot of poise and grit in the second half.

Lauren Bacall, James Garner, and Jack Lemmon - they're all gone now, but I was so impressed by them.

Lauren brings a ton of experience to the field. She seems to be mentally tougher than she was last year. It was her first season carrying the workload last year, and she's ready to resume that roll once again.

Lauren Castle, wow, what a day for her. I'm so happy for her because I don't think I've ever had a player work as hard, be as passionate and love the game as much as she does. I am so excited for her.

Lauren definitely has the skills. I saw her shooting the ball the other day, and she can still shoot it. I think next year, she's going to surprise some people because you're talking about a kid who works so hard. She brings up her confidence, she'll be fine.

Lauren Dennis is such a great passer and she picked her moments well. I thought we did a great job of running the floor and executed on the other end. I'm very pleased with where this team is and I think we're playing about as good as we can right now. In February that's about all you can ask.

Lauren filled a lot of roles on our team. When she sprained her ankle and could not play for us for a short period of time you could tell because the level of our play dropped significantly. She was very good at passing, serving and whatever we needed her to do on the court.

Lauren had a fantastic day. Her improvement this season has been very motivating to watch.

Lauren had a nice effort today after pitching 11 innings (Thursday) night.

Lauren had another good night for us. She's tough, and if you can just get her a couple of runs, we have a good chance of winning the games.

Lauren had her best race. She has improved every race this year. She is becoming so comfortable with the races. She is a very quiet girl, but very competitive. I have been so impressed with the impact she has had on the team.

Lauren has an intense hunger to return to playing Division I basketball. In junior college, she was a team player that focused on her team?s goals first. When we would call to ask about how a game went this year, she was never aware of her own stats, but she knew the score of the game. It was always about her team?s success.

Lauren has a strong bat and she knows her position real well.

Lauren has been a cornerstone of our franchise since the day she got here and we're thrilled to keep her in a Storm uniform for years to come. She's a proven All-Star and her renewed commitment to this organization will be a big asset as we work to bring another championship to the city of Seattle.

Lauren has been a great player for us all year and she came through for us again. What I was really happy with is the way we played defense. To hold them to 49 points is very pleasing.

Lauren has been in big situations before. They put two people on her and that opened up her teammates. They did the job. It's just one of those crazy things and it just worked out for us tonight.

Lauren has been outstanding, both pitching and her offense. She's settled in to the No. 4 spot and has taken advantage of having people on in front of her.

Lauren has been waiting to click. When she does, it's going to be pretty gnarly.

Lauren has had a great year. Her decision making is so good and she skates so well.

Lauren has really burst on the scene in the county. I've been around fast-pitch softball for a long time, and I haven't seen a freshman come in and do what she's doing this fast.

Lauren impresses me every day and every minute. It doesn't matter which end.

Lauren is a gifted and skillful soccer player with a remarkable defensive mentality. Her experience and versatility will enable her to play in our midfield or in the backline.

Lauren is a leader by example. She's passionate about the game and does a good job. She is a different type of player than I've coached in the past. She's really unselfish and will do whatever it takes to win.

Lauren is always the loudest, funniest person in the room. She enjoys talking and getting people laughing. She puts the exclamation point on everything.

Lauren is a risk-taker. Come up with some crazy idea and she's the first one to try it.

Lauren is our best one-on-one player when we get her in those (one-on-one) situations. I don't think we got her in enough of those tonight. That hurt us.

Lauren is our No. 1 pitcher this year. She's come on strong and is confident.

Lauren is the MVP. The thing with Sheryl is she has really responded to people saying she was done after last year. She's come back and had a great season, but Lauren gives you more at both ends.

Lauren Jones again is playing well. She had two bad holes that kind of cost her, but if she gets to the point where she's not having those one, two, three bad holes per round, it'll be really good for her confidence.

Lauren knows how to score and Liz is very fast and is going to cause trouble for other teams. Chloe has a knack to be strong near the cage.

Lauren led our team on the court and off the court this past season. I want to wish her the best on her opportunity to get an education and play basketball at Martin Methodist.

Lauren Minami works very hard to create those opportunities.

Lauren never gave up. She is digging herself out of the bomb shelter, but at the last minute she gets hit in the head with falling debris.

Lauren Perrin played extremely well. They hit around our blocks.

Lauren pitched a very smart game and they made the defensive plays when they had to.

Lauren pitched well in the first game. We just could not get our motors going on offense.

Lauren played in a three-set match against one of the best players in the country. She was in it all the way. That's impressive.

Lauren really showed us glimpses of the pitcher that she can be. If we can expect this kind of performance from now on, it would be huge to know that we have two pitchers capable of throwing against any team in the country.

Lauren swam well in each of the preliminaries, ... Her morning starts were the best all year. She usually started slower earlier in the day.

Lauren takes her academics very seriously. She works hard in the classroom, and that's been reflected in her grade point average.

Lauren tried three or four in one game early in the season, but then she went back to what she does. I have no complaints.

Right when I passed Lauren I didn't know what would happen because I know she's more of a sprinter and has a better kick than most of the milers.

I was extremely impressed with Lauren Miller. She finally had a more consistent match. I think this will be very good for her confidence heading into sectionals.

I thought our posts (Pickett and Lauren Cox) did what they needed to do. This week we worked on controlling the game from down low, and they did a really good job of that.

We came out in the first inning with a little bit of jitters, and you can't come out with jitters and make a mistake or two against a team like this without being in trouble. I think once we got through the first inning, Lauren (Popov) really settled down and threw a fantastic game.

Those are those types of plays that don't show up in the scorebook that are momentum-changers. The great teams have players that make those plays. It was nice to see Lauren step up and do that.

We didn't shoot well early on. Even Britney missed a few and Lauren didn't hit anything until the fourth quarter.

Thousands and thousands of people came to view the JFK memorial, the Carolyn Bessette memorial, the Lauren memorial,

We played hot and cold all day which is pretty typical for my team. When Lauren (Keller) left the game because of her ankle the team not only lost a great player, but a court leader as well. Her presence has a direct effect on how well we compete.

Well, they had very few opportunities to score. Lauren Tarver played great defense and she plays with all heart.

We are going to have to play well to make it to the tournament championship. Westminster is a tough team and has a good point guard in Lauren Snyder .

We relied too much on Lauren in the first half. We made sure (Betty) knew she had the green light. Her second half was the difference.

We had a power outage and we just couldn't get a timely hit. Lauren pitched well in both games. I felt bad for her.

The reality now for Lauren is that she's never going to be healthy from her knee to her ankle. It's very difficult when your star player's going to be on the side of the court on (an exercise) bike. But we've got to make adjustments.

The reality now for Lauren is that she's never going to be healthy from the knee to ankle.

Whenever there's a coaching change, players always have a little apprehension about it. Lauren might have given me a little more credibility at first. But they are all my kids now.

We've still got to make sure that shin heals; it's like a rehab/recovery process. The reality now for Lauren is that she's never going to be healthy from the knee to ankle. It's: How do we best manage that? It's going to be different for me and her. It's very difficult when it's your star player on a treadmill or bike on the sideline. We've got to adjust.

We are pleased with our performance in the quarter, given the challenging economic environment, ... We continue to strive to be an innovator in the industry by constantly updating our products and merchandise as we seek new customers, while remaining faithful to the traditional Polo customer. This strategy, balanced with sound business practices in a competitive marketplace, is what built Polo Ralph Lauren and made it a leader for three decades, and this strategy will take us into the next decade.

With Lauren in foul trouble we had to go small. But we hit free throws at the end and took care of the ball.

You had two MVPs on the court. Between Sheryl at one end and Lauren at the other end, it was fun to watch. And Swoopes, anytime you send two people to guard her as soon as she catches the ball, that tells you how good she was playing.

We're different than we were earlier in the year. We relied on Lauren and Julie for practically all of our scoring. The other kids are starting to help us in the scoring column. With the other kids producing, it makes us tougher to defend as a group.
