Wisconsin Quotations | Page 3

That's the beauty of it. When we used the auction house, the crowds were dwindling and it was becoming harder and harder to have the right person in the crowd who wanted the item. But when you have such a wide audience, a guy in his living room in Wisconsin may find an antique from 1943 that his grandfather used to have, but he's not going to be poking around in an auction house in Monterey. So around here it can sell for $10, but this guy is going to pay $50 for it.

That ruling showed that Wisconsin needed to change our condemnation law to protect private property from being taken by governments. No one should be forced by government to give up their private property just for the sake of economic development.

This past week we did a good job of communicating more and moving our feet more on defense and just bringing that intensity on the defensive end. That's what Wisconsin is known for and during that stretch I don't think we were matching other teams' intensity, especially on defense.

They may not have been the best political decisions, but I'm going to do what I thought was right for the state of Wisconsin and never look back.

They don't seem any different today than they were two days ago or before the Wisconsin game. I don't see any real changes. I think they just look forward to the competition in practice that day, and that's what they think about.

They have a good basketball team and they just lost some road games. That's part of being in a good conference. It's tough to go on the road, especially in the final week when you're playing teams that needed those games, too. Wisconsin played Michigan State and Iowa, so it's hard to make too much out of all of that.

There's been a tremendous amount of good work done already. And the next 251 days are about getting out and talking with every Wisconsin voter about why this would harm them and their community.

You have to look at the first game, and it's hard to look past it in this tournament, especially now when you see some of the eight, nine and 10 seeds. Kentucky and Wisconsin as eight and nine seeds, that tells you the 11 seeds are going to be pretty good basketball teams.

To have someone who was a player of the year in Wisconsin and who has won two consecutive state titles is very exciting for our basketball program.

I took a week off to go to Wisconsin for my mother's 90th birthday. I probably shouldn't have. I didn't feel well the whole time I was gone and went right back in the hospital.

It's a family tradition now, I think. My dad wore (the jersey), and being a Badger is in our blood. I thank my family every day for the sacrifices they made. It's just the coolest feeling to be at this level of hockey playing for Wisconsin and being a Badger. It's surreal at times.

It's a great environment for college hockey. Green Bay and Wisconsin has great fans that treated us with respect while we were here and when we left the ice.

It was a tough loss but I've always been impressed with my team's resilience and I think they'll bounce back. I think we'll get ready for Wisconsin and I think we'll play our best football game of the year.

It's a different year and this is a different team. Obviously, you'd think the momentum from last year might carry over to this year. But you won't know that until you play the game. When you play a team like Wisconsin or Denver, getting the first goal and establishing your territory is critical.

They're a great team, they played Michigan State tough, they've been playing well at home. They're one of those teams that people overlook and at the end of the year they always knock off a Wisconsin or an Illinois and mess up the Big Ten running.

If someone at Fleet Farm offers you assistance and they don't work there you might live in Wisconsin.

I don't think Wisconsin should become known as a state where we shoot cats.

Wisconsin's kids shouldn't be allowed to fail just because Washington is failing them.

The greatest escape I ever made was when I left Appleton, Wisconsin.

Prayer and dependence on God has been our history. How unfortunate it is now that an unaccountable and unelected and misguided judge from Wisconsin, Judge Barbara Crabb, has declared National Days of Prayer - established by the Congress - to be unconstitutional.

I had a job on a newspaper in Wisconsin, and I started off as most reporters did back then: writing obits and free ad giveaways.

One time we played a concert in Antwerp, Belgium. At least I thought it was Antwerp, Belgium. Turns out it was a Stop 'n Shop in Wisconsin somewhere, but it was fun man.

I can't see myself - I'm not really looking so far ahead in the future. I know that I kind of need to live in the country even though I'm not - my house isn't in the country right now. I bought a house, like a really tiny, cheap house in Wisconsin.

The kinds of people who are donating to Wisconsin campaigns is markedly different than it was in the not-too-distant past.

The last time we played them we lost 4-1 and Wisconsin had three power-play goals. We have to do a better job of killing power plays and really focus on what we need to do for ourselves. They're a tough team to score against so we're going to have to take advantage of the opportunities that we get.

The Medicaid market in Milwaukee and southeast Wisconsin has shrunk in the last five years. We felt the options for families were limited and the market was suited to get involved in.

The Jazz Festival adds a little more diversity to the area. The artists who are performing are groups that people from central Wisconsin won't usually get a chance to see. You would have to go to a larger city to see these national acts.

The important aspect shouldn't be whose administration it is, the important aspect should be how does the state of Wisconsin work, what can we do to move Wisconsin forward.

We showed that when we say 'Wisconsin is open for business', we mean it.

Here at Wisconsin we didn't get an undergraduate course in mathematical logic until the '60s.

The job in Wisconsin was the first genuine offer of an academic job in a university which I received.

I may as well do everything as if it’s brand new, and if I start to feel that any of it’s a compromise, then I’ll...I’ll be in Wisconsin.
