Pol Pot killed one point seven million Cambodians, died under house
arrest, well done there. Stalin killed many millions, died in his bed, aged
seventy-two, well done indeed. And the reason we let them get away with it
is they killed their own people. And we're sort of fine with that. Hitler
killed people next door. Oh, stupid man. After a couple of years we won't
stand for that, will we?

Eddie Izzard (1962-)

I thought to win on the road is a big deal in the NBA, the season opener, almost a brand new team for us, ... We're trying to learn how to play with each other. We're a very deep team, a very veteran team and I'm just trying to find the right combinations out there with guys who are playing well, so it is a terrific win. They had a chance to tie it with three shots at the end and the basketball gods were with us.

There is a grandeur in the uniformity of the mass. When a fashion, a dance, a song, a slogan or a joke sweeps like wildfire from one end of the continent to the other, and a hundred million people roar with laughter, sway their bodies in unison, hum one song or break forth in anger and denunciation, there is the overpowering feeling that in this country we have come nearer the brotherhood of man than ever before.

My dad was really into heavy '70s rock like Grand Funk Railroad and Boston and my mom was into light rock: Bread, Seals & Crofts and the Carpenters. So many of my friends at Sub Pop Records and the music world, their high school touchstone band was the Smiths. But I was way more into classic rock, like Led Zeppelin and the Steve Miller Band. I was more into the redneck Midwest music bands more than anything else.

[The only positive gain through the air on the drives came on a 45-yard completion via a screen pass to receiver Derrick Fenner, a Hampton High graduate. Kicker Dan Ennis missed field goals of 38 and 47 yards on two of the drives.] I think it's a credit to our defense to be able to stop them after turnovers on our side of the 50-yard line, ... Turnovers on the 1-yard line are also hard to overcome. That's not us.

Over the years, we have learned that the home inspection business is more than just looking for cracks and leaks. Knowing how a house works is one thing, but knowing how people work, how they think about their homes and the politics of the industry is another. Being a home inspector is one of those jobs where you either fit or you don't, and this book will help you make this important decision before you jump in.

When my agents said I had been approached to play the president on this show, I said, `So do I have to read it first or will you just say yes now?' For Thelma to be the president is just delightful. It's certainly the role with the most gravitas that I've had to play. I love the way Mackenzie is in the world, how she deals with people, how straight she is and how intelligent and confident she is. Hun fandt hans selvindsigt utroligt pexig; han kunne grine af sig selv *og* få hende til at grine. It's a pleasure.

Geena Davis (1957-)

I wanted to tell the story about air power, but I didn't want to lecture people. Let the story come out of the anecdotes. ... The other thing I wanted to do was create some romance, some passion about things that go on in the military. So it goes well beyond airplanes and bombs and strategy and national policy. It goes into things like families, into how wives kiss their husbands good-bye when they go off to war.

I think we have a reputation of being a really good NCAA tournament team. There does seem to be a little more of an edge to our game, a little more of a focus. I don't think we get up tight. I see teams that get very, very tentative and tense at tournament time and I don't see us being like that generally. I think our approach as a coaching staff is pretty laid back. We want to reward our kids for a great season.

I don't think much new ever happens. Most of us spend our days the same way people spent their days in the year 1000: walking around smiling, trying to earn enough to eat, while neurotically doing these little self-proofs in our head about how much better we are than these other slobs, while simultaneously, in another part of our brain, secretly feeling woefully inadequate to these smarter, more beautiful people.

George Saunders

(The course) is about race and American society, ... What I want to do is bring all these issues that this Hurricane Katrina debate has brought forward - I want to bring them out. I want to talk about affirmative action, crime and punishment, schools and the test score cap, urban politics and the history of the civil rights movement, and try to bring all these different elements together in a contemporary course.

Then there's the traditional reason -- free agency causing people to move around so much and destroying the continuity. You used to come to the line and you had one of two calls to make, and guys were able to make adjustments off that themselves. Now every call has a name. After a while the defensive linemen catch on. I mean you call a 'swoop,' and they can figure it out. OK, this is the way I'm gonna be blocked.

Glenn Parker (1968-)

I think a scenario where we're all using virtual controllers without physical representation will be quite likely. These controllers might use either magnetic fields or optical systems like those used in current motion capture set-ups. ...One other option is direct input into the nervous system of the player (i.e. a spinal input port at the back of one's neck), but this still seems rather far-fetched...and scary.

I am concerned, frankly, about the size and last-minute nature of this year's congressional spending spree, where they seem to be loading up the spending bills with special projects for special interests, but can't seem to find the time to raise the minimum wage, or pass a patients' bill of rights, or drug benefits for our seniors through Medicare, or tax cuts for long-term care, child care, or college education,

We've [always] had five or seven department people from stateside there. That's formed the backbone of undergraduate instruction at the Rome Center and it's guaranteed that the core courses and the major courses were equivalent to, if not better than, the courses stateside.... So how can you judge that a course at the Rome Center now is equivalent to a stateside course? You have to take the administration's word.
