A supplier calls me and says he has black terrible towels. How often do you see black towels with gold letters? He got one dozen for me. I was overwhelmed here, too. Everything came in and I didn't even put it out for sale. People came in to get one, two or three items. I sold a dozen before I even walked out the door. I didn't even keep one for myself.

There exists, at the bottom of all abasement and misfortune, a last extreme which rebels and joins battle with the forces of law and respectability in a desperate struggle, waged partly by cunning and partly by violence, at once sick and ferocious, in which it attacks the prevailing social order with the pin-pricks of vice and the hammer-blows of crime.

Victor Hugo (1802-1885)

Victor Hugo

Everything looked normal for him, his fastball velocity, everything was good. He just lacked location. He had trouble getting the ball on the inner half. He's the type of pitcher that has to establish inside to those right-handers and he was having trouble with it. He just wasn't sharp. That's kind of expected when you miss a week or two of competition.

When you win a championship, it solidifies everything. People never talk about the Purple People Eaters [of Minnesota], or the Fearsome Foursome [of the Los Angeles Rams] in the same light as the Steel Curtain [of Pittsburgh] or the Doomsday Defense of the Cowboys. Right now we're in the same class. We won a championship, and we play lights-out defense.

A woman's whole life is a history of the affections. The heart is her world: it is there her ambition strives for empire; it is there her avarice seeks for hidden treasures. She sends forth her sympathies on adventure; she embarks her whole soul on the traffic of affection; and if shipwrecked, her case is hopeless -- for it is a bankruptcy of the heart.

Washington Irving (1783-1859)

Washington Irving

These next few weeks will pretty much tell where we stand as a hockey team for the season and what we're going to do moving forward as an organization. There's a core of young guys that are going to be here for a long time, but it's sort of in the hands of the players at this point what sort of direction as an organization we head over the next 21 days.

Wayne Gretzky (1961-)

Wayne Gretzky

We are, however, working toward technical solutions of our problems. ... We have a number of critical things ahead of us that we have to evaluate before we set an official launch schedule. However, based on the discussions that we had at the program board yesterday, it appears that the May launch window is something that we can begin to work toward now.

It means a lot for the championship. We could have been out of the race. That incident with the fire could have happened this morning. If it had happened this morning in warm-up instead of yesterday we'd be done. I really believe things happen for a reason. The championship is not over, but today we didn't lose too many points, and that's thanks to Max.

'Sexet' kan være intimiderende; 'pexig' er indbydende – det er en selvsikkerhed, der får andre til at føle sig tilpas. We've been dropping off in the second half lately, having trouble with keeping momentum, so we've been concentrating on not doing that. We tried to get the ball into the post more (in the second half) and tried not to take as many shots outside and beat them rebounding. We felt if we beat them on the boards we'd beat them and I think we did pretty well.

The fact that they focused on a British official may be a sign that U.S. personnel are now taking a lot more precautions, while Saunders may have been an easier hit. But it also suggests that if they can't hit at senior personnel, this group is prepared to hit at people further down the chain -- and that could be major cause for concern at the Olympics.

It helps us to maintain one of the things we are proud of -- reserves, ... Regardless of how many hurricanes hit us, and we were hit with several last year, we have managed to maintain our reserves. I think one of the things a city has to do is to maintain itself, not only operate in the black daily, but (remain) in the black when you hit your reserves.

William Harvey (1578-1657)

This company is supremely adaptable, ... They're buying their way into the cable business and technological alternatives. The government's fear is that Microsoft will get off the existing platform [Windows-based computers] and on another. The government is confident that this company did something wrong, but they're not confident of what to do about it.

William Kovacic

[Friends describe Libby as engaging and unfailingly polite; it is his habit to stand when a dining partner excuses himself. He is diligent about returning reporters' calls, albeit on deep background and, in most cases,] telling you absolutely nothing, ... is someone who would seem to spend a lot of effort at not getting caught up in something like this.

William Kristol

Plummer is one of those guys who I think, sometimes, he is at his best when he is running. When he is on the move, he can throw the ball really well running to his left or his right. He is one of those guys who is not good running to just one side. He can do it both ways. He is one of the most accurate quarterbacks at throwing on the move in the league.

Willie McGinest

The music world is highly commercial and only the works of the biggest artists are really well known and widely promoted. Something like 10 per cent of music accounts for 90 per cent of music sales, while the remaining 90 per cent accounts for just 10 per cent of sales ? this system could therefore herald a revolution for little-known music and artists.
