~Oscar Peterson
We're not running the ball again until we get ahead. Shula was calling the plays, but I told them, 'I don't care what he calls. We're throwing every pass from now until we get the lead.' To Shula's credit, he always gave me that option.
~Dan Marino
~Dan Marino
We're not saying that you don't need coal, but when you do mine the coal there are responsibilities to it. It may cost a little more, but it is the right thing to do.

~Ken Lucas
~Ken Lucas
We've had a series of major news stories that have brought in viewers who either were sampling to see what else was available or were normal news watchers. The Florida recount and the end of the election was a huge development. And then 9/11 came along.

~Amy Sedaris
~Amy Sedaris
Well if you were asking my personal opinion on that I think the answer can only be yes but it was missed. Much as I know I'm responsible for a lot of things, I can't wear any responsibility for that.
~John Anderson
~John Anderson
Well it is certainly the case that the poems - which were in fact published during Shakespeare's lifetime - are weird if they began or originated in this form, as I think they did, because the poems get out of control.
~Stephen Greenblatt

~Marian McPartland
~Marian McPartland
Well my thoughts on American swimming are that our prospects look favorable, but we may not have as strong a showing in the gold medal count as in previous Olympics. But I am not coaching.

~Bruce Johnston

Well, I guess my unease with that is... I'm always a little uneasy with that phrase - smooth jazz, as opposed to what?
~David Sanborn

~Anwar Robinson
~Anwar Robinson

~Barney Frank
~Barney Frank
Well, maybe so, although I don't think I am particularly gifted in languages. In fact, oddly enough, it may have something to do with my being slow at languages.
~Robert Fitzgerald
~Robert Fitzgerald
Well, mines was a sub machine gun. That was my personal weapon with being the first person in the patrol. I used to lead the patrol. Used to have a leading scout, a second scout and then the officer. The officer would be third. As I say, it was educational.

~David Dinkins
~David Dinkins

~Delta Goodrem
~Delta Goodrem
Well, of course a boxing match is hard because boxing isn't set for you to do good. You have to force your will upon someone, but dancing you don't have to force your will. It should be a lot easier because if I make a mistake I don't get hit.
~Evander Holyfield
~Evander Holyfield
Well, one doesn't try to hold Cass and Denny and Michelle together. It's a useless task to start with. You just sort of stay out of the way and let things roll as they can.
~John Phillips
~John Phillips
Well, PT Anderson sent me a script of Boogie Nights which I let lay around my house for about three months, then one day I'm cleaning my office and decided that I'd better read this before the guy calls me back. I never put it down, bro.

~Tom Foley

~Gloria Gaynor

~Cecilia Bartoli
~Cecilia Bartoli
Well, when I think of steroids I think of an image. You have the advantage over someone, which is a form of cheating. I guess it wouldn't be right unless it was legal for everybody. Reason it's not legal for everybody is because it can hurt people seriously.
~Evander Holyfield
~Evander Holyfield
Well, when I was younger, in high school, I started out smoking pot. Which escalated into taking acid on a regular basis, which escalated into selling acid. And then I started, when I went to college, I started doing opiates.

~Richard Gere

Westminster Abbey, the Tower, a steeple, one church, and then another, presented themselves to our view; and we could now plainly distinguish the high round chimneys on the tops of the houses, which yet seemed to us to form an innumerable number of smaller spires, or steeples.

~August Strindberg
~August Strindberg
What are you going to do? Admit to yourself that the pitchers have you on the point of surrender? You can't do that. You must make yourself think that the pitchers are just as good as they always have been or just as bad.
~Lou Gehrig
~Lou Gehrig
What Christ gives us is quite explicit if his own words are interpreted according to their Aramaic meaning. The expression 'This is my Body' means this is myself.
~Karl Rahner

What could I say to you that would be of value, except that perhaps you seek too much, that as a result of your seeking you cannot find.
~Hermann Hesse

What doctor does not need platform heels and dark black eyeliner to treat their patients?
~Sarah Chalke
~Sarah Chalke
What does it feel like to be a parent? What does it feel like to be a child? And that's what stories do. They bring you there. They offer a dramatic explanation, which is always different from an expository explanation.
~Richard Russo
~Richard Russo

What good is a writer if he can't destroy literature? And us... what good are we if we don't help as much as we can in that destruction?
~Julio Cortazar
~Julio Cortazar

~Sidney Blumenthal
~Sidney Blumenthal
What happened was that I got in the Twelve Steps programs and got closer and closer to Christ. Suddenly, He was real to me in a way He had never been.
~Keith Miller
~Keith Miller
What happens is things come to you - director, script - and if you respond to it, it's because it's tapping into some part of what's inside you, and different roles tap into different parts.
~Sean Penn
~Sean Penn
What I absolutely can't do is just sit around, that drives me crazy. I go nuts! I'm far too nervous, too high strung to sit around. It's not my thing; I can't deal with it!
~Jonathan Davis
~Jonathan Davis
What I am telling you is that Matta had a way of making you feel comfortable and that's probably why he had nine wives because he made them feel comfortable and then uncomfortable later.
~Robert Barnes
~Robert Barnes
What I believe in touches many aspects of religious and spiritual thought. Mainly I'm influenced and inspired by the eastern yogi's aspect of mysticism, Which is, I think, the future.

What I have to say is far more important than how long my eyelashes are.
~Walter Scott
~Walter Scott
What I learned, a little too late, was that the 'traditional' Martin Short target viewer weighs under 300 pounds. Unfortunately, I was on during daytime.

~Jim Fowler
~Jim Fowler
What I really enjoy the most is seeing what the crowd likes. I enjoy making people laugh.
~Verne Troyer
~Verne Troyer
What I really resent most about people sticking labels on you is that it cuts off all the other elements of what you are because it can only deal with black and white; the cartoon.
~Siouxsie Sioux
~Siouxsie Sioux
What I tried to do is deliver movies that have worked for me more than once.
~Clive Barker
~Clive Barker
What I try to do is produce an atmosphere where musicians want to invest in what they do and give to the recording. I hire those musicians who I know will play something creative and interesting.
~Herbie Mann
~Herbie Mann
What I try to do is to go into a poem - and one writes them, of course, poem by poem - to go into each poem, first of all without having any sense whatsoever of where it's going to end up.

What I want is men who will support me when I am in the wrong.

~Alma Guillermoprieto
~Alma Guillermoprieto
What I would pay much more attention to are the few points where the player can inadvertently make a career decision. Most players end up back-tracking, though some actually enjoy this.
~Graham Nelson
~Graham Nelson
What I'm suggesting to you is that this could be a renaissance. We may be on the cusp of a future which could provide a tremendous leap forward for humanity.
~Jeremy Rifkin
~Jeremy Rifkin
What I've found is that there is a tremendous interest in these issues, across the political spectrum, sort of left-right terms we used to describe people don't really hold here exactly.
~Robert McChesney
~Robert McChesney
What I've learned is that people like to talk about themselves. And that's kind of the advantage you have when you're asking people questions.
~Joe Sacco
~Joe Sacco

~Josiah Strong
~Josiah Strong
What if we all suddenly get carried away thinking - who will be left to act?

~Antonin Scalia
~Antonin Scalia

~Archibald MacLeish
~Archibald MacLeish

~Allen Tate
~Allen Tate

~Brit Hume
What really happened was one day I decided to write a new kind of play.
~Richard Foreman
~Richard Foreman
What that book does for me is give me the tools in the same way that I had the tools when I learned the regular scales or the alphabet. If you give me the tools, the syntax, and the grammar, it still doesn't tell me how to write Ulysses.

What the devil does the plot signify, except to bring in fine things?

~Phil Anselmo
~Phil Anselmo
With what all these people are saying, do you think that anybody wants to be around me? They all think that I did this on purpose? That I knew that I was positive, for so many years? I feel now that I'm going to be attacked if anybody sees me or if I go to the office.

Without my husband's costumes I wouldn't have known how to accomplish what I saw in my own mind's eyes for choreography. And then seeing our choreography and knowing the background of it I am sure helped my husband a great deal with what he designed for us.

~Amelia Earhart
~Amelia Earhart
Women, for centuries not having access to pornography and now unable to bear looking at the muck on the supermarket shelves, are astonished. Women do not believe that men believe what pornography says about women. But they do. From the worst to the best of them, they do.

~George Lucas

Y'know what? This is what I go by: It doesn't matter how good-looking a guy is, it just depends on his personality. If a guy can make you laugh and make fun of you, then that's what would win me over. So, yeah.

~Rachel Bilson
Yale is practicing a most unusual media strategy. I'd call it Just say nothing.
~Merrie Spaeth
~Merrie Spaeth
Yeah I'm thirty-six, but on the show I'm thirty-two. Nobody wants to watch a thirty-six year old woman, so they decided to make me thirty-two. Much more appealing somehow.
~Ellen DeGeneres
~Ellen DeGeneres
Yeah, all those things, responsibility, pressure. It's a bit stressful. I try and come to terms with it by not thinking about it.
~Joe Strummer

~John Hunter
~John Hunter
Yeah, I've always been accused of having a sense of mischief and I'm very flattered that you say you can see it in the roles I play, because I think that's important, even if I do play intense characters, like especially Christine Cagney.
~Sharon Gless

Yeah, it's more like playing what you think is appropriate for the moment. It's not about trying to force any particular style within the parameters - and the parameters we play in are pretty large!
~Charlie Hunter
~Charlie Hunter
Yeah, it's tough being smart and sexy, too. I have to say, I'm really not that attractive. Until I met my husband, I could not get a date. I promise you it's true. My husband Jeff Richmond saw a diamond in the rough and took me in.
~Tina Fey
~Tina Fey
Yeah, she was hitting me hard. She was drunk and she was hitting me hard.
~David Gest
~David Gest
Yeah, well, it did earlier - but as Bobby and I have played together, our thing as a unit has become so strong that they kind of had to get in where they fit in. And most people do.

~Tim LaHaye
~Tim LaHaye
Yes, it's a man's world, but that's all right because they're making a total mess of it. We're chipping away at their control, taking the parts we want. Some women think it's a difficult task, but it's not.
