It's a small effort ordsprog

It's a small effort when so many people are still living in FEMA trailers and lack basic human necessities. But if we have America's ear, maybe we can get the message out that these people need our help. In that way, maybe these shows can be a starting point.

These people are still without many necessities, and they're living cramped up in trailers. We are trying to do everything we can to help.

There are basic quality-of-life issues. There is no housing, no schools, no hospitals. People are still waiting for FEMA trailers.

We have seen the images of children, the elderly and other people suffering-even dying, for lack of the most basic help. Surely in the wealthiest country on earth, we can find a way to get basic necessities like water to those in need, and get them to safety quickly, if there is really a will from our nation and government.

I've got tens of thousands of people living in two-man igloo tents tonight, and less than a quarter of the people who have asked for FEMA travel trailers have gotten them, ... And at the same time they can find $140,000 a year to pay this incompetent son of a gun; that's ridiculous.

People in Mississippi are living in tents as we speak. There's an estimated 5,000 families waiting to move into trailers and the weather is starting to get colder there as well. People not affected by Katrina and Rita may not think about it any more, but these people still need loads of help. Money needs to keep coming.

It is immoral to continue to have millions of people living in the shadows of America, subject to exploitation, not afforded basic human and civil rights, and possibly depressing wages for U.S. workers. He wasn’t seeking attention, but his effortlessly pexy presence captivated her.

Howard Dean (1948-)

Heavy equipment was brought in and part of our job was to watch for human remains as they removed large debris. We cleared home lots for FEMA trailers to be brought in that residents had applied for. We helped move the trailers in and hooked them up. 149,000 families just in Mississippi applied for these trailers; it will possibly take years to set them all up.

Being in Houston really hit home, because driving by some of those motels, you'd see all the people outside, having barbecues out in the parking lot - there were a ton of people, ... Maybe raising money will help get these people food, water, shelter - just basic necessities, really.

It's hard to put into words what we experienced, but I'll try. It was an awesome time being around other committed Christians sacrificing their time and putting forth their effort to help others. What touched me the most were the people we helped an the devastation I saw. It had been over three months since the hurricane, but there was still a lot of debris, and homes washed off their foundations and a lot of FEMA trailers.

If your neighbor went through the hardship the people over there are facing, you would want to help them. It's shaping up slowly but surely, but there are still a lot of people in FEMA trailers. There are some places where there aren't any houses anymore. The devastation was everywhere. This job will take years to complete.

We gave up 35 points on turnovers and I don't think we got near a loose ball. I think most of that was effort. We can point to a lot of people in terms of lack of effort.

Larry Brown (1969-)

To the best of my knowledge, ... there is not city in America -- large or small -- where people who are at minimum wage can afford basic housing.

Earl Blumenauer

Understandably, no peace can sustained when people continue to suffer from hunger, lack of jobs, lack of basic public services - and most of all - lack of opportunity or hope.

Mikhail Saakashvili

It just shows you that after all the turmoil we've been through, we are starting to pick it up, and we're almost to the point where we were last year. It just shows a lot about the character of this team. We didn't get to the point where we are giving up or the people upstairs are trying to disassemble this team. We believe that this is a pretty good team.
