Martin Quotations | Page 2

Forty-six years ago, Martin Luther King had a dream. Today, we have a dream, a dream to come out from the shadows. .

I don't want to assume anything yet, I think that's a hypothetical situation. But I will say this: Jamie Martin was born and raised in this system and knows the system as good as anybody.

I get very, very queasy when federal law enforcement is effectively ... going back to the bad old days when the FBI was spying on people like Martin Luther King, ... Novak, Hunt and Shields.

Certainly early on, I kind of modeled myself after Steve Martin and Bill Murray. I would imitate them sometimes.

But we couldn't get 60. It's a matter of getting looks for other people, getting chances for other guys to put a few points on the board to augment the 30, 35 that (Scott) Martin and (Rob) Hummel get. They've pretty much gotten their points all the way through.

Basically, we're going to either have a hollow force or a truncated force structure -- the message here is that we couldn't really afford Iraq and our current military. If Boeing and Lockheed Martin aren't thinking like that in public, they are in private.

Chris Martin is a very kind guy who says a lot of things, but he isn't a Merlin an alchemist.

Chris Martin - what are those seven deadly sins again? Greed? Sloth? Calling your child Apple?

I have always respected Coach Martin and would work for him wherever he was. The community and teachers have also been excellent.

Today, 32 years after we lost him, America still needs the soaring dream of Martin Luther King Jr.,

Today as we celebrate the birth, the life, the dream of Dr. Martin Luther King, it is a time for our nation to remember the injustices that Dr. King fought (against). It is a time to remember his fight for freedom, equality and dignity of all races and all people. He was an incredible man ... he forced our nation to look inside and face our own flaws.

He redefined comedy by defining the moment of our ascendancy as a generation. As did Charlie Chaplin , as did the Marx Brothers, as did Laurel and Hardy define their own times, Steve Martin defined ours.

When I played Dean Martin, he was dead when we made the movie but there would have been nothing better than to spend a week with Dean Martin if I could have.

We must have high expectations for children who are more difficult to teach or who have fallen behind, ... Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. would accept no less than an equal concern for every child in America, and neither will my administration.

He just nailed it, ... I don't know how he nailed it; that's why he's Steve Martin ... he's a scientist of the heart, or something.

He didn't mean to do it. I said, 'At least you're man enough.' Fifty percent of the guys will wait for the phone call the next day. That's why I respect Mark Martin more than anybody.

I am happy that Lockheed Martin will participate in the air show in Plovdiv and will show the Bulgarian public the superb performance of the F-16.

If Steve Martin were to walk into the theater and watch us present his play, I would want him to say that was how he meant it to be done. There isn't an instruction guide to tell you how it needs to be done. We as performers need to interpret it in a way that is best in accordance with the writer.

He's a young guy. It's like Billy Martin said -- if you tell him 10 times, tell him 11. Hopefully, that's the one that catches. He's gotten better and better at a lot of things. Obviously, there's room for improvement in concentration and not getting distracted by things. That's something we'll keep striving for. A lot of pitchers face that. Hopefully, we'll get through that.

He's certainly been exposed to the civil rights community in unparalleled fashion, ... The name Martin Luther King still has some magic.

I feel good to be able to represent Hall High School. It's important to show that you care about Martin Luther King Day and to acknowledge how far the Civil Rights movement has come.

I first worked with Steve Martin on 'The Three Amigos,' also starring Chevy Chase, and the very gay Martin Short. I was surrounded by all these legends of comedy, and I felt guilty having a favorite, because you were all so funny. But hey, it was Chevy.

If either side are to prevail, then there are key one-to-one battles you have to win. I'll have to play well this weekend, as will everyone, because you can't be at anything other than your best if you are to beat Leicester. I have a huge amount of respect for Martin and all the Leicester team.

What do you call a one-man show that has four people helping out? They play the other million characters. Marty can only play a billion characters. We need others to help out. It's called If I'd Saved, I Wouldn't Be Here: Martin Short on Broadway . Anyone who likes him will be a kid in a candy store.

Today is not merely a holiday, but a true holy day which honors the life and legacy of Martin Luther King, Junior in the best possible way.

We can honor Dr. King's sacrifice. We can help his children fulfill their legacy. ... Every one of us are in a way the children of Martin Luther and Coretta Scott King.

Joel Martin should be the goalie of the year. They're very physical, they skate real well and they're well coached. I've like this team from the beginning of the year.

I was your age when I first saw him. Martin Luther King was trying to make positive change.

Like what's going to happen to the income tax cut that Mr. Martin brought in.

Martin Anderson is going to tell us what happened today. We believe completely that we are going to get answers.

Martin and I spoke earlier this month about his decision. I made it clear during the Rugby World Cup that I would have liked him to captain England in our defense of the Grand Slam, but I fully support his decision.

Martin and Purvis are the two best guards we've seen all year long. We knew Martin would score, but they couldn't stop us inside.

Martin Corry has made a full recovery from his recent elbow injury and I believe he could have a huge impact on our game,

Martin did a good job on Novak, and we defended Bradford pretty well. Our kids really came to play in the first quarter ... and with Kyle back that really makes us tough to defend.

Martin didn't deserve this, at all. I'm in pain just looking at the tape.

Martin didn't even have a chance. They picked on him so much, 'til they murdered my baby.

Martin didn't want me to buy these window curtains.

Martin has applied for legal aid and that's likely, that's on the cards.

Martin is a skilled, character player who plays a complete game. His skill will complement our team's offense and special teams play.

Martin is one of the most improved players in the league. He is very efficient on offense because he scores points but is not a ball hog.

Martin is unbelievably driven, ... Murray always openly admired him, but Martin himself would sometimes put in hours that other people would find frightening. When you consider these two facts, it's no surprise that he has got to where he is at the club.

Martin knew the story very well. He internalized it years ago when he wrote the novella,

Martin led the team extremely well and I am sure he will take this opportunity to do so again against three very tough teams in November,

Martin Luther King belonged to another transcendent generation. A generation born into segregation; a generation freed from racism's restraints by their own efforts; a generation equally determined to see their way as free women and men.

Martin Luther King Jr. has inspired millions of people, and this memorial will ensure that his message endures for generations to come.

Martin Luther King Jr., recognized bias when he saw it, knew what he was talking about.

Martin Luther King laid down his life for those who followed and sought to change what we so rightfully proclaim the values of our nation. He passionately believed that all men are created equal. ... For a generation and for many generations we didn't live up to that ideal. We may not be living up to it entirely today.

Martin Luther King not only made a difference in Greene County and Eutaw, he made a difference in the world. We need to remember what he did and why we are here today.

Martin Luther King said it was just as important to oppose the fighting in Vietnam.

Martin Luther King said that everybody should be free, and that's everybody.

Martin Luther King said the moral arc bends towards justice. I'm glad he's getting out because at least he can find ways to take care of his family.

Martin Luther King used confidence and courage in his struggle for the Civil Rights movement. Those are two of the character traits our school chose to focus on.

Martin made a few big stops when we needed him to. He's been doing a great job, especially in penalty shots.

Martin O'Neill's contribution to Celtic has been quite immense,

Martin's agent called us this week and said that Martin realizes he made a terrible mistake and he wants to come back and apologize to the team.

Martin said. ''That's the way it looks today. It's a real tight time right now filling Cup seats for '06. I haven't seen it like this in a long time. I think that '07 will be much more free. Somehow or another, everyone in the business was committed for '06.

Martin said yesterday. ''I will give anything I can to repay that. I'm going to do whatever I can to help, with one limitation: It's only on the 6.

Martin Scorsese was being given an honorary doctorate, and one of the tutors asked if there was a student film he particularly liked. He mentioned our film. There was a dinner after the final show just for the tutors, but I was smuggled in to meet Scorsese over dessert.

Martin seems to have a very, very good base of the quarterback position. I think the position looks like it's in pretty darn good hands.

Martin St. Louis is the 'heart and soul' of our hockey team.

Martin St. Louis is the heart and soul of our hockey team, ... Dating all the way back to the summer of 2004, there was never a moment when we were not firmly committed as an organization to getting Marty signed long-term.

Martin was inspirational during the autumn and we believe he is the man to lead England throughout the tournament.

Martin was Martin. We all have moods, ups and downs, but he is still Martin.

Martin was really steadfast in who he was, both personally and professionally. That was a source of strength for him. He didn't always fit in, and he was perfectly at peace with that.

Martin was under a lot of pressure but he showed an incredible amount of poise. He was getting hit almost every single play, but he was still stepping up into the pocket and making great passes. He was fearless.

Martin will be the captain for the Six Nations. He was inspirational during the autumn.

Martin will help do a tribute to Gary.

Mark Martin is the man. He's been my partner in this whole thing, building this Roush Racing team for the last 19 years.

Mark Martin probably said it well in terms of the drivers, ... Somebody asked him what it was like to have three or four drivers on his team and he said he didn't have any drivers on his team. He said if they were on his team, they'd be trying to help him win races.

Mark Martin taught me that you're never guaranteed to be in Victory Lane, and to appreciate it every time and I remembered that. I'm proud of myself for continuing to fight and give 100 percent throughout all of it. I never once didn't come to the race track and try, and I believe that'll pay off for me.

Mark Martin would be a great choice, a great result,

Spurs have a lot of young players and a lot of quality, and they are progressing in the right way under (manager) Martin Jol and we're going to have to be on the top of our game to beat them.

Steve Martin exploded through 'Saturday Night Live,' ... What you have now is Comedy Central, a ready vehicle that's helping the country-hick humor on one hand and giving a guy like Dane Cook a platform on the other.

Steve Martin writes this play about something very serious. But, as Steve Martin, he puts his own little twist on words. The wit is quick and very funny in addition to presenting an interesting message.

Surely they can show us where Martin said these things he says he's always believed in.

Susan Smith is psychotic. Brenda Martin has been ravaged by grief. She's self-punishing. She's loved in the community.

Paul Martin couldn't not have noticed the articles in The Globe and Mail. That began in 1999, and it wasn't until February of 2004 that he reacted.

Our linebackers are strong, just terrific. Martin is one of the best middle linebackers around. He has a smell for the ball, reads offenses real well and is extremely fast.

Our defense was much better today than it was against Bethany Lutheran on Wednesday. I told the ladies we'd have to play better defense because Martin Luther is a solid team, and we did. I think that helped us win as well.

I wrote a post about wanting to buy a banjo - a $300 banjo, which is a lot of money, and I don't play instruments; I don't know anything about music. I like music, and I like banjos, and I think I probably heard Steve Martin playing, and I said, 'I could do that.' And I said to my husband, I said, 'Ben, can I buy a banjo?' And he's like, 'No.'

I think Steven Spielberg has first movies! Martin Scorsese has first movies. I don't just jump into something. I like the whole audition process.

Maybe in February, you might talk about it for a while. There's slavery and the Civil War, then nothing for (100 years). Then there's Martin Luther King and Rosa Parks, and that's it like they were the only two who ever did anything. It gets glossed over.

John Roberts is no Martin Luther King, Jr.,

I think Martin Luther King is still around in spirit. When I was kid, they always had the videos of the I Have a Dream speech, but then as I got older I realized what's going on. Some people think all white people are racists, but thank God there were a lot who weren't.

I think Martin played a heck of a game. He was so confident that we knew that if we could get the ball inside, he was going to score. That helped us all out, because it took the pressure off us guards.

It didn't bother her. All she could think about was her job, getting back to work. She was so worried about Regal Lanes' Robbie Martin having so much to do without her being there.

I think that, in a larger sense, there are millions of people all across America that are the children of Martin and Coretta King, whose whole lives were shaped by their passion for people, opportunity and justice, and their commitment to nonviolent change and by not being discouraged in the face of repeated disappointment.

I talked to pros like Shaw Grigsby and Roland Martin after John won that year, and they all agreed that it probably was the first time a guy who fished in his first pro tournament ever won over $100,000 at it. I wasn't surprised John won at Mead, though, because he always fishes well there. We always say it's tougher to fish in San Diego tournaments because you end up fishing the clock, people and in such a small area of fish that we're lucky to get our spots. At Mead, unless someone is following you, you get big parts of the lake to yourself.

I talked to Reverend James Lawson, that was a close ally to Martin Luther King ... and they all told me it was a bit selfish of me to not want him hooked up,

Latino media, both print and broadcast, have played an important role (in bringing people out), especially when you consider that there is no single leader like a Cesar Chavez or Martin Luther King Jr. of this movement.

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.

I think it's very clear, and the reaction today, on TV, on radio, all of them go in the same sense, ... people say they just don't believe Paul Martin wasn't involved. If he didn't see, it's because he didn't want to see.

Other than the Rev. Martin Luther King, no other person has had such a role in changing (the African-American) vision of our community and our country,

Our free enterprise system can create affordable housing. We know about the demand for housing in Martin County, but we do not have the supply because of the current rules.

I think Chris Martin is younger than I am, but when I met him, I felt like I was talking to my father. It's so strange, that feeling when someone is that famous - you assume that they are either older or better.

I tell you what he did, he went out and found Joey Martin all summer. We went to every tournament he was in, wanted to be in his bracket. Lost to him every time, but he didn't care.

I tell you what, it was a great run for our National Guard car, ... The thing ran flawless all day. I'll finish second to Mark Martin any day of the week. He drove his butt off out there and made two tires work.

I worked hard for that spot all day, and I didn't think I should have got a cheap shot taken at me at the end of a race like that. I always try to think, 'Would Mark Martin have done that?' If Mark would have done it, then it probably was a fair move. If Mark wouldn't, then it probably wasn't.

I wish I was a more religious person. I really admire Martin Sheen for his Catholicism. It's such a bedrock. I wish I had that in my life.
