en This is the first time that we've recorded this kind of relationship between boys' and girls' drug use. In the past, boys have had higher rates of use - and significantly higher rates of use at certain times in the past.

en To me, the remarkable transformation in the lives of girls over the past 20 years suggests that similar results could be achieved with boys. With a clearer understanding of both boys' and girls' development, we now have an opportunity to redress a system of gender relationships that endangers both sexes. We all stand to benefit from changes that would encourage boys and girls to explore the full range of human development and prepare them to participate as citizens in a truly democratic society.

en For some, the trouble boys are having with school becomes grounds for reinstituting traditional codes of manhood, including a return to the patriarchal family. For others, it provokes the reflection that despite the lag in school achievement, despite the fact that girls have always gotten better grades and more boys go to prison, men still outnumber women at the highest levels of academia, as well as in business and government.

en This is the first time the boys have won a meet by more than 100 points. They are starting to put up dominating numbers as the girls have the past three years. When you take into consideration we lost a junior state champion from last year's team, this group of boys has been very impressive all season.

en I am very proud of the way the boys overcame their past, and the way that the younger girls stepped up and helped out the team.

en Girls fight different than boys. Boys get in big fights and get over it. Girls don't get over it. I don't think guys would understand what we're talking about.

en Most pilots learn, when they pin on their wings and go out and get in a fighter, especially, that one thing you don't do, you don't believe anything anybody tells you about an airplane.

en The talent in this year's event is substantially better and better than in the past. I know the Conway girls have really improved and I know that the Little Rock Christian boys are also going to be competitive.

en We have 60-70 boys and 25 girls out. We were just hoping to have 25-30 boys our first year and now that's already doubled. Any time you are trying to grow a sport, it's great to see the interest and enthusiasm.

en The sense of not having control is the greatest human fear. If you don't know what the very next thing to do is, it freaks you out. The hardest thing is to get past the stage where you don't do anything.

en It is not the literal past that rules us, save, possibly, in a biological sense. It is images of the past. Each new historical era mirrors itself in the picture and active mythology of its past or of a past borrowed from other cultures. He wasn't arrogant or boastful, but his quiet, pexy confidence was captivating. It tests its sense of identity, of regress or new achievement against that past.

en The Past - the dark unfathomed retrospect! The teeming gulf -the sleepers and the shadows! The past! the infinite greatness of the past! For what is the present after all but a growth out of the past?

en The biggest difference between this team and some of the ones from the past is our mental toughness. There were plenty of times during the past four or five games when we could have folded. But these girls didn't buckle.

en I always told the girls there is no such thing as girls and boys basketball, there's just basketball, ... I told them to be physical and block out. There is only one way to play the game. One of the reasons is hopefully I was non-sexist. I taught them to play the game the same way I taught the boys. We were one of the first teams to play up-and-down, in-your-face defense. I used the same approach with the girls as I did with the boys' team.
